Are you missing far away?
Or standing close with words to say?
Are you missing days before,
The smiles, the warmth, the open door?
Did the world hurt you so deep,
That you left without a peep?
Did no one see the pain inside,
The silent tears you tried to hide?
Some may smile, but still feel pain,
Some may laugh, but hide the rain.
Even those who seem so bright,
Cry alone in the quiet night.
Many pretend, many hide,
Many hold hurt deep inside.
Even the ones who seem okay,
Struggle to make it through each day.
Maybe some were glad you left,
Maybe some felt lost, bereft.
But not all forget so fast,
Some hold on, some make it last.
Come back, friend, don’t go away,
Stay with us one more day.
Not all are selfish, not all deceive,
Some still wait, some still believe.
You are wanted, you are dear,
Let your sorrow rest right here.
The world is hard, but kindness stays,
A little light in darkened days.
Come back, friend, don’t fade from sight,
There’s still hope, and there’s still light.
