Where Have You Gone?

When I woke up I thought of you,

I felt sad as the pain grew.

 

I go to bed wondering when you'll be back,

and I played your favourite CD track.

 

Why did you leave?

I will soon start to grieve.

 

I wonder where you left to,

will you bring me with you?

 

Please send me a sign,

saying you'll be fine.

 

I've tried to get your attention,

but now that you mention,

I don't grieve over you,

but maybe if you knew,

that I still care,

but it's not fair.

 

When I go to school,

I don't think of you,

maybe it's because I grew,

and finally got over you.


The author's comments:

What inspired me to write this was the absence of my mother. She was never there for me when I was younger and I often tried to get her attention but she hardly ever replied, so I stopped trying. You can interpret it any way you'd like to, but just know what I actually wrote it about.
