In My Own Home

I've never felt this alone
The quiet's all around
Everyone I know
Everyone I loved
has gone away
but I'm still here
in the same place with the same face
only everything's changed

It's not the same without you here
Your presence gone, I feel the hole
a shadow on my heart
I used to rest assured, knowing you were near
Knowing you're not, I move forward
Your scent lost in the air
I go out under the same sky
and I carry on, wishing you were here

As it's time to transition again
I know life will be fine
My routine keeps me in check
as i adjust to this next part.
Though things aren't the same
I know you are there
whether or not we meet again
