Only Reminds Me of You ...

I see you, beside me
It's only a dream
A vision of what used to be
The laughter, the sorrow
Pictures in time
Fading to memories

How could I ever let you go
Is it too late to let you know
I tried to run from your side
But each place I hide
It only reminds me of you
When I turn out all the lights
Even the night
It only reminds me of you

I needed my freedom
That's what I've thought
But I was a fool to believe
My heart lied while you cried
Rivers of tears
But I was too blind to see
Everything we've been through before
Now it means so much more
I tried to run from your side
But each place I hide
It only reminds me of you

When I turn out all the light
Even the night
It only reminds me of you
Only you
So come back to me
I'm down on my knees
Can't you see

Just when you thought just because we think that the person would just be around and we fail to appreciate or we don’t realize how much they meant to us until they’re gone. Relationships at any level need to be nurtured, acknowledge, and appreciated.

Things fall apart when you take them for granted, or things just get boring, and it becomes ordinary, that's part of life. And sometimes the very small things that cost nothing means so much to others.

There are a lot of stories like these that would hit you hard and would knock you down. Regrets eat us alive, all the could’ve, would’ve, should’ve played in your head more than a thousand times. We tend to hang on and rewind events that lead to what happened because the truth is hard to swallow. We cry ourselves to sleep when your heart is troubled, it’s hard to get up in the morning and keep going but somehow you did wake up and keep going. In our everyday life, at times we don’t really mean to hurt others or leave the people we care about, life happens, and it means different, and feels different to everyone.

So try your very best to tell the people you care about, how much they mean to you until time or circumstances in life happen.
