Not Gone Just Forgotten

I still sit in the same old chair Where you used to climb on me. Now the room feels twice as empty, But you don't seem to see. You walk past like I'm a shadow, Like I don't belong in your day. Same house, same walls around us, But your world's away. I don't need your whole life, Just a moment where I Exist. I'm not gone, just forgotten. Still breathing in this place. Still calling out your name at night. Still hoping for your face. Everything I gave you Is still inside these walls. But you don't hear me anymore. You don't hear me At all. Whoa. Mm. So I speak to God in silence Where no one else can hear. Say, "Lord, don't let him lose me while I'm Still standing here." I don't ask for his tomorrow or to change The life he chose. Just let him feel the love I gave Before it goes. If your mercy still can reach him, Let it reach him now. I'm not gone, just forgotten. Like I faded in his eyes. Like the man who raised him up Was never in his life. I'm still here, still waiting, Still holding what we were. But he walks right through my silence Like I don't matter. Oh. I'm not angry. I just pray, "Don't let him wake up someday When I'm too far away." I'm not gone, just forgotten. But I'm still here tonight. Still asking you, my God above, To bring him back to light. And if one day he turns around When the silence feels too strong, Let him find me where I've been, Holding on. Not gone, Just forgotten. Lord, don't let me Disappear.
