If You Had Been Here

by Ashley Jo

The pain has returned
My soul is on fire
My heart didn't do this to me
It just called Love a liar

Deeper I fall
I call out your name
But you do not hear
And my cries are in vain

I'm being engulfed
By the hell in which I reside
And as I swallow my fate
I'm being washed away by the tide

My life begins to fade
And I disappear.
I wonder would this have happened,
if you had been here?
