Gone

You're gone.
As quick as you came into my life,
Gone.

Why can't I tell you?
Why do I freeze when I try to tell you?
Tell you how you make me feel inside,
When you're around.

You're my best friend,
I'd do anything for you.
Just to see you smile.
Something about it fills me with joy,
It makes me feel like a man.

That beautiful smile.

I forget about my insecurities,
My weaknesses become strengths.
Just hearing your name makes me want to be a better man,
For you.

We'd go out and have fun,
We'd come home and go our separate ways.
I want to turn and see you smiling back at me,
But when I turn around, you're gone.

As quick as the joy you brought into my life,
When you leave it follows you.
My smile fades, my heart sinks,
As quick as you came into my life,
You're gone.
