I don't care for being remembered
I don't care if no one comes to my funeral
Or if no one comes to see me when I'm older

I just want to be the girl that you remember
Twenty years from now
I want to be the girl that you wish you had kept
I want you to not even be able to say my name

I know I'm not going to forget you
It's near impossible
Your name is forever carved
Into my brain

Don't worry
I'm not going to tell my children
Or my grandchildren
About how much I cared about you
Or how much I wish I would've stayed with you

I'm going to tell them to never go near
A man like you
I'm going to make sure that they understand
That you might be the worst thing that has ever happened to me

You hurt me in ways
That I don't even know how to explain
And I'll make **** sure
That I'll never let that happen to anyone
That I truly care about
About a boy that I fell head over heels for my freshman year of high school. I wish that I could go back in time and tell myself that he isn't worth it, but it's too late for that now.
