Not Just For Today

After you walked out the door I was left to pick up the shards

You helped me to bring down my walls but when you said goodbye, up came my guard

I did not know what to do without you

Wondering why all this was something I was put through



I thought we would spend forever by each others side

Feeling no need to ever hide

But now I am alone and so broken

Suffocating inside, nearly choking



Though I seem tough, I'm not made of steel

When you hurt me, the pain is quite real

It is okay to bleed, but I dont want to die

I need your love to ever survive



Come back darling, and pull me to the surface

Hold me close in your loving embrace

Save my life, say you'll stay

and not just for today
