Dead Inside

About my friend Arik who just died in an accident....not very good though :(
Everything seemed so clear.
I always thought you would be here.
But then I blinked and you were gone.
And I've been trying to stay strong.
I hardly make it through the day.
With every breath I feel more pain.
I want to fall asleep forever,
So that we can be together.
I want to hear your voice just one last time,
So you can tell me everything will be alright.
I want these tears to stop flowing.
When will the pain just stop growing?
I want these thoughts out of my head.
You're gone but I feel like it's me who's dead.
