That Was Then and This Is Now

You were a geek at times…and I was along with you…the times you cried I wiped 
your tears…the blood you bled I washed away…the marks that showed I covered 
with my love…the pain you had I felt worst…every laugh from you made me live 
one more day…the smile you showed helped me through the darkness that 
surrounded me…your eyes that were so indescribable helped my bad days…the 
heart you had helped mine heal…the life you lived made me realize how good of 
a life I have…the jokes you told pulled me through the day…the looks you would 
give me would make me want to laugh…the things you said and the way you 
were when I was so said couldn’t get through the day cheered me up more then 
ever…but that was then and this is now…now you are gone…I have no one to be 
a geek with…no tears to wipe…no blood to wash…no marks to hide…no pain to 
feel…no laugh to live on…no smile to light the way…no eyes for my bad days…
no heart to heal mine…no bad life to separate the good…no jokes to pull me 
through…nothing to laugh at…none of your personality to cheer me up…so that 
was then and this is now…
