Dear Alfred,

I'm so tired of being here

Alfred?

Suppressed by all my childhood fears

I'm all alone

And if you have to leave

Why did go?

I wish that you would just leave

Why did you leave me?

Because your presence still lingers here

What happened to you Alfred?

And it won't leave me alone

You told me you loved me

These wounds won't seem to heal

You said I was special

This pain is just too real

That I was 'the one'

There's just too much that time cannot erase

What happened Alfred?

When you cried, I'd wipe all of your tears

I was always there for you

When you screamed, I'd fight away all of your fears

I was there when you needed me

I held your hand through all of these years

You promised to always be there for me

But you still have

You promised

All of me

Never to leave

I loved you

You used to captivate me

The way you smiled

By your resonating light

Your bright blue eyes

Now I'm bound by the life you left behind

I miss them now

Your face it haunts

Sometimes I see you

My once pleasant dreams

When I close my eyes

Your voice it chased away

I call to you

All the sanity in me

But you don't respond

These wounds won't seem to heal

I cry then

This pain is just too real

I cry because you don't answer me

There's just too much that time cannot erase

What happened to us?

When you cried, I'd wipe all of your tears

Why don't you still love me?

When you screamed, I'd fight away all of your fears

Why don't you still care?

I held your hand through all of these years

When did I become

But you still have

Just another girl

All of me

A thing of the past

I tried so hard to tell myself that you're gone

Another mistake

But though you're still with me

I don't see you like that

I been alone and lost

I still love you Alfred

These wounds won't seem to heal

I still dream that one day

This pain is just too real

You will come back

There's just too much that time cannot erase

And take me in your arms

When you cried, I'd wipe all of your tears

But I know it is never to be

When you screamed, I'd fight away all of your fears

Because to you

I held your hand through all of these years

I am just another memory

But you still have

But Alfred…

All of me

You're still everything to me
