~*You*~

by Liss   Jul 4, 2003


I wake up every morning in this strange place I'm supposed to call home.
All my clothes are here, my makeup, my hairspray, my Hello Kitty socks.
but where are all my friends, the ones I grew up with? Where's the brother I look up to, the best friend I can't live without? Where's my neices and nephews that I care for so much?
~~400 miles keep us apart~~
~You keep us apart~
The visits every few months feel like just a quick glimpse.
A "Hi" and "Goodbye."

The moments I miss are unbearable,
too much to even imagine.
The Birthdays,
Holidays,
big promotions,
The six month anniversaries.
I've missed them all.

You have escaped your life and have pressured me to do the same.

" It's a new beginning, a chance to start over. Leave all problems behind."

It's funny how you managed to escape your torture, and forced me to escape perfection.
You miss the same moments as I do.
I'm starting to think that has no affect on you.
But I guess I wouldn't expect it to since the tears I cry don't seem to either.
