The last time I turned the handle, cold hands steered me away. Spiders colonize all along the walls of your fortress down the stairs. This house is no longer a home. I still can't believe that you're gone... cuz I still feel you everywhere. I'm searching for anything that remains in the room where we used to play. I thought I heard you singing in the garden as the rain fell to the ground. I swore I heard you running through the basement, boarding up the walls to fight off the horde. I still hear you're rifle sound. I recall a time, an unfamiliar place. You cut off all your hair and grew it on your face. You asked me how was life, I said "it's all a waste without you here. It's all a waste." You looked me in the eyes as I began to wake and said "this life is yours, you just have to take the bad that comes with the good and everything in your life will work out the way it should." I still can't believe that you're gone, cuz I still feel you everywhere. I'm searching for anything that remains in the room where we used to play. I still can't believe that you're gone...but I'll stay strong.
