WISH THAT YOU WERE STILL HERE
WISH THAT YOU WERE STILL HERE
Written by Alana Cheng
I wish that you were still here, and I wish that you were still alive, so maybe, you can help teach me how to survive, through the mental health of a chaotic storm of sadness that’s been coming over me from time to time, in so many ways, and there would be so many days, where I would wonder if you can see me, from wherever you are, as I’d like to think that you have somehow become a hidden guiding star, to help me through the toughest nights, and with all of the most chaotic fights, that I’d have with myself, over the years, with all of the tears, to all that I have cried, then maybe you would still be around, to help comfort me as my tears slowly dried, for I wish that you were still here, as I just don’t know how you could’ve shouldered it all, and without any visible fear, with everything that you were going through, but that if you were still here, then maybe you can tell me that everything will be okay for me too, as I wish that you were still here, as I wouldn’t have any idea of what you were hiding, of the innermost sadness of what was making you feel so depressed, no matter how hard you were trying, and how to everyone else, you were lying, but for good reason, just to get through and each night and day of any season, as I’d wish that you were still here, by whatever would come what may, if only you were able to tell yourself that everything will be okay, then maybe you’d still be around to help me out in my own life today.
