Sometimes i think to the past

How i've grown

How i've been able to last

When it seemed as though the world wasn't my own

I remember all the things i said

All the lies i told

All the people i left

Even the ones who left me

Its a sad thing to think

But almost an amazing thing

To be able to see the faces

And hear the voices

Of people who brought the sun in

If only for a while

But theres always the one person

Who lingers constantly in my mind

Its like the thought of them never truly leaves

Its not yet a curse

But almost a greeting

The first time i saw their face

The fist time we talked for a while

The first time i shared my life

And the times i cried to them

Almost everyday

And gosh

They never ran away

But if they did

They came back again and again

So no matter the lies

That rolled off their tongue

I sat there quietly

Hoping for a truth maybe for once

But does one ever change if they never know the mistake

Or ever learn you love them no matter how much distance you bring

Maybe one day ill show you how i see these things

And maybe that day you will listen and handle me with care.
