and I'd like to think
that if we never speak again
one day you'll look back
on me fondly as someone
who didn't fear the future
when they pictured you
by their side.
I'd like to think
you'll remember me
as somebody you could
have spent your life
if only the timing
had been right.
I'd like to think
you'll remember me
as somebody
who loved you
the best they could
even if it wasn't
always what you wanted
or needed.
and I'd to think
that if we ever speak again
we will lean on laughter
or music to make it
to the other side
whatever that side is
or isn't.
