Why don't you ever come home

come closer so I can see you

I've only seen five pictures

I've only heard your voice

I don't know if you're real

or if you were just made up

I need to see some proof

to see you without the makeup

I hurt every time I think of you

and I really wonder why

it hurts inside and aches a lot

it happens all the time

You give me lots of gifts

you give me lots of toys

you give me what you think I want

but you've never given me love

I cherish you 

and I love you a lot

even though I say I hate you,

it's so bad, it hurts a lot

As you keep moving further

and you say you'll see me soon

life keeps on moving slower

time seems to stop a bit

I try to figure out where you are

as I keep on making excuses for you,

if you don't know, I want you back

I wonder why you left

I think to see if I'm at fault

and where I even went wrong

then I remember that I was just a child

when you screamed and left us

I love you really much

I don't even know why

I can't seem to forget you

trust me I try
