Does she know?


Blissfully unaware, driving away
I feel her slipping from my reach, her echo from afar
Does she know?
Does she know I lay awake at night, suffocating under the hurt she causes me?
Does she know I need her more than air?
I want to scream, \"wake up!\"
I want to scream, \"I need you!\"
She\'s blind, spiraling in cravings and emotions it seems I can no longer provide
Left to vend for myself, to care about my own well-being, do parents stop loving us when we turn 18?
I want to scream at her, \"you\'re my best friend!\"
I want to scream at her, \"don\'t leave like my father has!\"
Does she hear me without us fighting and screaming? 
Does she see my broken heart? 
I feel her slipping away from my reach, her echo from afar 
Does she know?
