I reached out for your hand
You didn't seem to care;
You can only reach so far
When no one else is there.
Others also reached for you
Hoping to make you see;
That we're just as important
As he will ever be.
We wish we could reach further
But we are only so strong;
We hoped your eyes would open
So that you'd see you're wrong.
It hurts to have to reach far
When you once were so near;
It's hard shouting out for you
With our voices you don't hear.
We wish you'd extend your hand
And sense the friendship there;
Knowing what our memories mean
Showing us you still care.
We realize you don't reach back
Instead his hands with yours;
You can't handle both the worlds
So you close common doors.
We're done reaching for the past
You are now on your own;
We hope he is all worth it,
Without him you're alone. |
