Sometimes I wonder where you are.

Are you thinking of me ? Have you even though of me ?

Of all the time I'm left wondering, I think to myself so deeply.

Should I be left crying ? From the hurt, that you have caused so greatly.

From time to time, I think of you again.

I cannot stop the memories that pop up every now and then.

I think to myself , "Why did I even trust you?"

Just to go back to the answer, that I have been fooled by you.

But I guess, I'll just go by.

Like how you did when you died.
