Void Of You

You were so supportive of me to seek treatment.
Whenever I had something to get out of my heart, you let me vent.
Other times when I was too depressed, you got me off the couch.
You were the only one to get me out of that drug infested house.
I was so strong for so long, but now I feel that void of you.
I want to see you and wrap my arms around you so I won't feel so blue.
You inspired me of so much and opened my world to new things.
You never made me feel bad or like that nasty dope fiend.
I count the days till I can see you again and fill that void.
The distance between us may be far, but you're in my heart, you'll always be my boy.
I gaze up at the sky and believe you're looking up at the same time.
For I'm coming back eventually to say hi and to show you I'm better than fine.
I thank my lucky stars you intervened and showed me the way.
I just had to let you know you were the one to help me through each day.
