~ Long Hard Road ~

The days i spend now,
they feel so lonely.
Waking every day
knowing im alone.

Knowing your 1000 miles away
going on with out me.
Not giving a second thought,
life goes on as if we never met.

Maybe its for the best
we both move on with our lives.
You happen to slip in my mind,
I push it out as quickly as i can.

I try and keep from beaking down.
With tears in my eyes i hold back,
All the feelings that come rushing,
filling up my vacant heart.

Its going to be a long hard road,
without you by my side.
Its going to be a long hard road,
without you to tuck me in at night.
This life will be a long and hard road,
without being able to kiss your forehead again.

But thoughts of you i hold fast to in my heart,
Keeping me warm when i grow cold.
They keep me pushing on when i want to give up,
Keep me from falling into nothingness.

Like a teddy bear i squeeze tight,
holding on to those memories,
and only then, do i feel alright.
