Silence is all I hear since you've been gone.

No one to hold my hand, to wrap me up in their arms,

That warm embrace of comfort, everlasting friendship.

No one to catch those teardrops that fall from these watery eyes,

Splashing onto the cold, hard floor beneath my feet.

No smile to wake up to and greet me with lips so soft and tender,

Nothing but the bedsheets at my side to grasp a hold of in the cold of night,

Held down amongst this desolate life that now surrounds me,

Hoping one day to break free, away from what I have now become.

Release me, free me, but more importantly than all,

Unchain me from this hold you still possess over me!
