My Comforter

You were my comforter
The one I ran to when I was in need
Now that it’s ended like this
who will hold me?
The shoulder to cry on
as the tears fall
The arms to hold me
with the words to let me
know everything will be ok
Who can I run to?
When everything seems so wrong
When it all feels so bad
Not being able to go back
and the fear of going forward
not knowing what lays ahead
Without the one you hope
would always be there
and I wonder
what else is there
not sure if I should
give up or try again
search for love
or just let it end
be alone and find myself
be my comforter
hold me, love me
be there for me
dry my tears as they fall
because you hurt me
and there’s no love at all
