I was going to write a poem about us
And how I know
That I have to leave
But I don't want to go
I got a few lines in
And didn't know what to write
I didn't want to think about the future without you
I didn't want it to be so soon
There's only a few days left
At least I'll get to see you one last time
But what then?
Will it be a few months? A few years?
I don't want to go through this again
Not knowing when I'll see you again
To not be able to feel your arms around me
I know I've told you this before
But when I'm with you, I just feel safe
I want to spend every second with you
That might soften the blow
I don't want the day to come
When we have to say our goodbyes
Maybe to not see each other for the next few years
I know I'll never meet anyone like you
And no one could ever replace you
I'll probably write you letters all the time
And reread old ones from you to me
I'll probably cry for a while
I'll recover eventually
And something will remind me of you
And I'll smile
I'll remember you and how much I love you
It'll be hard for a while
Being so far away
I'm not sure what I'll do
I'll probably send you a message
About everything that's happened
Just to remember that I've probably already told you
That you know already and I'll have nothing else to say
It'll be hard being so far away
With you here and me there
I really don't want to go
But I know I have to leave
I suppose I did know what to write
I love you
