they say the right person will stay
but I’m the one that left
and I think it was for the better
but now there’s so much emptiness
I don’t want to be the wrong person
but he just wasn’t who I thought
I spent so long debating it
the consideration wasn’t short
and it really wasn’t easy
although goodbyes rarely are
it’s hard to watch him live his life
seeing it all from afar
when I used to tell him everything
every moment, every beat
it's hard to have nobody there
to listen to my defeat
I never thought it would end
and definitely never thought
it would be down to me
but the uncertainty was so heavy
I honestly could hardly breathe
I think, perhaps he hates me now
though I still wish him all the best
the grief of losing all our love
still lives deep inside my chest
I’ve learned to be open-minded
so I’ll try not to be a judge
a future with someone I love
is all I can dream of
maybe someday I’ll get there
I’ll have someone who holds my hand
who kisses me at 6am
and always understands
someone who makes me certain
who wouldn’t hate me if I left
who has no secrets hidden from me
and nothing bad to confess
until that day, I’ll remember this
and pray that I can heal
but I know what I had felt was love
and I know that it was real.
