I can’t be you and I’m finding it difficult to be me,
Wanting to be the child but needing to be the adult,
I am lost, not knowing what to do,
Sensing things that I need to do
Life is reciprocal, that’s what I’m told,
Living is more than existing…I’m tired,
I don’t want to let you go, I still need you,
I miss you I’m trying, weakened by selfishness
Your memories fill me when I’m feeling empty
Your strength, bravery and love sustain me
