The Runaway

by Rachel   Oct 27, 2006


I feel so lost without you here,
it hurts too much to even shed a tear.
So much pain and sorrow, I feel deep within.
How do I continue, where do I begin?

When I finally found you, you were asleep in the park,
I felt so scared for you, all alone in the dark.
I found you some shelter, a warm place to sleep,
you weren't ready to come home or to admit the defeat.

All you could offer me was your love in return,
you were far too young with so much to learn.
I held you close and felt you trembling with fear.
I couldn't bear to leave you after our long lost year.

I told you I would return with every chance that I got
that I loved you so much and missed you a lot.
What else could I do, except turn and walk away?
I will never in my life forget, our last heart wrenching day.

Now you are gone forever and I miss you so very much,
your laughter, your kindness, your smile and your touch.
I will think of you with every ocean and star that I see.
How could I walk away from you? This guilt is killing me.

Goodbye my sweet angel, I will never let you go,
your soul is soaring high and your spirit is a glow.
Our memories are forever, I know we shall meet again,
you will always be a part of me and I can't wait to see you then.
