This used to have a different meaning
This meant everything was going to end
It kind of did
"I won't be here in a year"
I remember the night you sang to me
The day you're hope seemed disappear
Now I see it wasn't hope lost
It was when you're resolution to change began
It was knowing you had to leave
To escape the shell you had become
To become the brightness you were lacking
The day to put the past behind even if it hurt and damaged your soul
I saw you get better
And nothing could have made me happier
I didn't realize you leaving the past behind meant leaving me behind
And as you got better I got worse
A year past and I saw what you told me was true
In a year we were distant
You were no longer where we were
You were a grown person
And I missed you
"You would be here in a year"
I had to remind myself
And I did every year for the time to come
We haven't talked in years
I have grown apart from my past feelings
Now I see its for the best
I saw you the other day
Happy, healthy
Nothing like you were before
Even though it hurts to be away I want you to know that I'm proud of you
I'm happy you've grown
Although we aren't close it doesn't bug me
Because I know you made the right choice
If you see this
which I know you won't
Just now that I care even though you've forgotten me
I won't forget you
