One day when you find these words,
You'll finally understand,
The moment I first fell in love,
How it broke me, built me, changed me.

You'll finally understand,
Why it was so hard for me to forget,
All the names of my yesterdays,
The broken promises of my past.

You'll know how they loved me,
Then broke me and used me.
How I had to pick myself up,
Carrying this weight behind my smile.

So one day when you find these words,

Please don't let it change you,
Knowing the stories of my past.
For them I write what used to be,
But for you I write what can be.

And I just hope that you'll know,
Amongst all the names I've written for,
It is you and only you,
Who I solely belong to in the end.
