on my own

poem by: Ryan Barger
Written on Sep 07, 2015

Why do I feel
Like you've turned away
Why must I cry
Every day
Where are you
When I need you most
What do I have to do 
For you to notice
Turn you're eyes
Toward me again
Smile on me 
And be my friend
Walk with me
All the way
Give me
The words I need to say
I'm not gonna make it 
On my own
Regardless of any 
Seeds I've sown
Time is running out
I'm feeling weak
I don't have any
Words left to speak
If you don't step in 
It's gonna be the end
So please stoop down
So life can begin again
