A lifetime spent watching you grow up through my eyes
You're good mornings and your good evenings, your hello's and good-byes
To look at you now with nothing at all to show
It makes me so sick, I wish I could just get up and go

But no I must stay, I can never leave your side
In your shadow I will try to hide
Can't get a job, can't find a girl
Can't find the path that will take you into the world

I don't know what keeps you here I don't know what makes you stay
It would be so nice for you to just vanish and go away
But this will never happen due to shear terror
I will just watch you as many times as you look into any mirror

-I never consider myself much of a writer, just an outlet for myself I guess. A heart of a poet is what I always say, even if I am the only one to enjoy my works, it will be worth it. My form will hopefully get better in time, it's still only my second poem ever written.-
