People come and go,

But you're someone I would never let go.

 

Because I love you, you were my first for everything, 

Maybe not my first kiss, nor my first girl,

But I'm sure I wanted to make you my last.

 

Because I love you, I saw how you stood out,

Flaws, insecurities, doubt, it never really bothered me,

Bliss, pleasure, and a peace of mind was how I always felt around you.

You were a puzzle and mystery to solve,

How you brought meaning into life, made me who I am.

Who would've known one girl would've changed the world,

Well my world for the most part.

There was so much significance between us,

All the memories, laughter, and wonder,

Oh how I wish they would last forever.

 

Because I love you, I hated to ever see you sad,

Your happiness what mattered a lot,

Shy, cautious, yet worthwhile,

Someone had to step in and change you,

See life how I see it, and let you know,

Someone does really care for you, and wants what's best for you,

Oh how I wish that never went away.

 

Because I love you, you brought me down at my worst,

You've seen the horrid side of me,

How insanely jealous I get,

How I seem to be more demanding and controlling,

How I ask for so much when it feels so little,

Now I seen what distance has done between us,

Yet in the end, it's me who gets hurt the most,

Now I can't ever change that,

Oh how I wish I just stayed.

 

Because I love you, you brought us at our worst,

Deep down I knew the best of things has to come to an end,

Over time I left for college, you started changing,

Becoming more distant, shady and blunt,

I never would have thought this would happen,

What's worst of it all was the pain you brought towards me.

Maybe it was the distance?

It had to be my absence?

Maybe you were too young and I was getting too old,

Or maybe it was for the best?

Yet I still wish I could've done more for you,

In the end I did what I could, and it's over,

Oh how I wish you the best.

 

Because I love you, you're all but just a memory, 

I still think to myself what could have I done,

I could've gave you so much more,

Twelve months of pure love, bond and joy,

Gone in just a blink of an eye,

But I guess my time is up.

 

Because I love you, I hope you're doing well,

I hope you get everything you wish for,

I hope you succeed in life,

I hope you find success,

I hope whatever comes next,

You still know that I'll always have something for you.

 

You're still the same girl I knew when we met,

How I've always thought you deserved the best,

But now I have no more time left.

Maybe one day we'll find our way back to each other,

Maybe it's just a matter of time,

Just know I'm still here for you,

I'm still on my last stand,

I still want what's best.

 

Because I love you, you deserve the best.
