Gone For Too Long

You've been gone for too long.
For a second is too long.
I think of you from time to time.
You helped make me, me: you're in every breath of mine
You're with me in my soul and heart.
Yet missing you tears me apart.
You've been gone for too long.

I can never hear your voice again.
I can never feel your touch again.
It hurts so bad when I miss you.
When I miss you it starts to hurt in my throat;
my nose start to run, my eyes start to float.
I long to be with you again,

I know everyone leaves at some point in life.
I just wish you didn't have to leave mine.
I hate the despair the memories cause.
They cause sorrow, while the pain in my throat claws.
Yet I never want to forget.

You've been gone for too long.
