I am the only person
That can not notice
When my best friend comments:
"We're in that town too"
Anyways I met her on our holiday
It was funny

I met you, a broken soul
Pieces flowing through life like a leaf in the wind
Your pain was heavy
The sadness behind your eyes was more
Like an ever so gentle heartbreak
You pulled me in with your words and your pain
I felt complete again
I believed I could be happy being your bandaid
But it only brought us both more pain
I loved your hand embracing mine
The late strolls we'd take on the beach
Our feet wettened by the rising tide
The moon high in the night highlighted the silver in your hair
Your youthful endeavors never quite showed your age
The sweetness of your I love you's
Masked the shame you were feeling
My choiceful ignorance to your pain wasnt love
It was selfishness and greed
I needed you a million times more than you needed me
And I never told you just how much I wished my words were true every time I whispered, "I love you"

stood at the stands
our hands catching the wind
we shout every word
as she starts to sing

you haven't even left yet,
but i'm already missing you.
6 773 kilometers,
Thats an ocean to pass through.

its only been 8 months,
but it feels like my whole life.
now you're going home,
and we've run out of time.

maybe our paths will cross,
or maybe we won't meet again.
maybe we'll write more books,
or maybe this is our chapters end.

these months have been good,
you became my closest friend.
but now my heart is broken,
and i'm not sure that it will mend.

i don't want you to go,
sure we can call and we can text.
but its not the same,
cause who knows when ill see you next.
