Right Beside Me

She is mostly gone
Some other place.
I am still the same.
I still stay.
Everything you whispered in my ear
has come unglued.
Try to justify the things
I used to do:
Believe in you.

Watching the ground.
It swallows me down.
And you are here right beside me.
The stars in the sky
Are waving goodbye.
You are staying right beside me.

Try to stay awake.
Just in case.
I've come to realize
My heart’s erased.
Time has a way
To make it clear.
And I had my role in this.
I can't disappear,
Or keep you here.

Watching the ground.
It swallows me down.
And you are here right beside me.
The stars in the sky
Are waving goodbye.
There is no one right beside me.
