I am afraid you are so far gone that even now I could never find you
Sometimes I see you in the eyes of the ones I love
but I do not see you in my eyes
where you belong.
I didn’t see you last night when he touched my leg
and kissed my cheek
I didn’t see you when he was kind
or when all he wanted was to be close to you
I saw you slipping away in each moment
quicker than the last
I didn’t see you on the drive home
when you should have been all smiles
because this is what you’ve wanted after all
wasn’t it?
What frightens me the most is that
I don’t see you when I look in the mirror
