I was with you then, when you were but a stranger, passing me by, as my curiosity grew, and my awareness of your presence, I was with you then when I was your friend, before everything else, and listened to your dreams in life, all your cares and rants, everything you gave a damn about in this world, I was with you then when you were your old self, saying you didn't deserve me, I stayed with you then when you felt like you were such a mess.

I stayed with you then, when you were at your lowest self, I stayed with you then when you changed and was the best version of yourself, showing me the opportunity of the vision, the kind of person you could be, giving me high hopes for us, I was with you then, when we'd talk till 3a.m. and I heard your fragile heart speak to mine.

I was with you then when you changed yet again, and surrendered to all of the monsters in your mind, and I will be with you still when I finally leave...,because I love you and that's what love for me is. But sadness lingers still, knowing I won't be with you when, you change for good, and that version of you I know exists prevailed, as it should.
