Your shadow

I stand in your shadow
unable to break free
unable to let go
of what the past used to be

Your not here anymore
haven't been for awhile
but still I stand in your shadow
I can't run another mile

I miss your little half smile
the one that made me laugh
if only I could see it
when you come back

I can't put myself in that position
no not anymore
I'm finally pulling out
trying not to miss you anymore

fly from the inside but never let go
never forget the pain you caused not so long ago
Hold on to the good but remember the bad
Keep composed
let go of the past
forgive and remember

Still in your shadow, when I see you again?
How will I feel?
How will I act?
Has my heart had enough time to mend?
