Why
by
Heidi Yang
Why do I miss you so much?
You should be home soon
Then why do I feel so empty inside?
We’ve only been going out for a few months
But sometimes all I can think about is you,
Why do I care about you so much?
I guess that’s just the way I am,
Sometimes I don’t care what happens and other times
I’m so scared something bad will happen
Why do I feel so damn depressed?
It’s not fair, why did this have to happen?
I just want you here, to hold you in my arms again
Instead I am forced to wait,
I can only hope that you will be home soon
That I can stop worrying so damn much
That one day these feelings will only be a memory,
What am I supposed to do?
My friends and I can pray for you
That doesn’t seem like enough
It will have to work for now
I remember the good times we had
I have to be content with hearing your voice
I can’t help but worry no matter what they say
It’s only then I know
I love you and I’ll stay
