After a while

The bedroom's quiet
Nobody sits on the bed
No one climbs all over the place.

You sit, silently
Looking around at
Nothing that seems to be there.

What does it all mean?
I miss them.
Nobody to see
Sometimes it's worth it.

The bedroom's empty
Nobody smiles as you walk in
It's quiet and a little dark.

You sit, lonely
Being missed by everyone
You think about what you had.

What does it all say?
It's easy
Nobody to be
Sometimes it's worth it.

After a while,
You know it's a good thing.
You know it's better.
But why miss them
When it's not even gone?
