He Is Not Here

He is not here
I look and search for him, but he cannot be found
I know he is in a good place,
But I am without him, so I might drown

We rarely talk, because he is not here,
He could not find his way to me, I might as well just walk in fear

She won’t let me go
She is happy, she left him

She is watching out for me, like a bear watching her cub. But I need him

He is not here.
I am lost, confused, pained
Trying to be happy,
I can’t do this anymore, I’m drained
