Time For Change

You were my sunshine, once upon a time. When I stood by your side, day in and day out. Do you remember who raised you for so long? I spent every second surrounded by you. I found security in being needed and my purpose in life was clear. I catered to a life I created and held so dear. My soul longed for you, you saved my life before. I stopped using and straightened out my life because of you. I stayed that way for 3 years, that was the happiest I've ever been. I believed in being the best version of me and I miss every minute of it. I need you to need me and I know you do. All I need to do is quit slipping up, my life is worth saving so you have a mother to look up to, a hand to hold and a role model to remind you that you're destined for greatness. To be together again, I want to be your today and tomorrow, to be a part of your whole. My heart hurts without you, with you I feel at home. You are my sunshine and I know it's past time. I'm sorry for that, but I am here now.
