You're Always Here

I just close my eyes

And memories flood my concious state

And calm washes over me

And suddenly

Everything is alright

I'll live in that moment

And everything will be okay

Your smile

My grin

I dwell within

I'm running from the outside

Falling into

Yesterday

The only place I really feel safe

Reality is pounding at me

But I have to hold on to this little bliss

This serenity

My memories are made of you

And are my only peace

You may not be here

To hold me close

And wipe my tears

But you still keep me sane

You still help me walk straight

Despite the pressure of gravity

That becomes heavier every day

One more deep breath

Grasp hold this feeling of sanctuary

And then I'll face my world

The world you left me with

The terrors

And fear

But I have to remember you're always close

And always near
