See the future,
See the past.

A past that won't let go
A past that will be there forever.
Forever you said,
Forever never lasted.
Lasted thirteen years
Lasted not that long -
Long I remember -
Long I still will -

Will I see you again?
Will I one day understand?

Understand, I can't
Erase the past,
Erase the images.

One day it will all make sense.
One day it will all go away.
Away like you -
Away to somewhere far.

Remember the smiles -
Remember you.

You watched me grow.
You left
Left suddenly
Left me all alone.

But at the end of the day,
I'd rather not know why.
