until

I let us slip through reckless hands,

Stupid words, unmeant and wild, and suddenly, I’m just a child.

you were my laughter, You were my smile,My best friend, the softest place,And I wore that trust with a careless embrace.

We’re still young, still full of timeIt hurts to lose you, but I see,We need this space to learn, to be.

Because love—real love—must have its time,To heal, to grow, to redefine.I see the strength in who you are,And even apart, you’re not that far.

Right for now, we walk alone, 

To find the strength we’ve never known.

Mistakes were made, I own them now,I’ll grow, I’ll change—I swear this vow.Because the love we’ve always knownwon't just fade. 

it wasn't just the big things, the words we’d say,

But the quiet moments when the world would fade away.

a million lyrics, I hold every word,

the silence now is being heard.

I hope one day, when skies are clear,You’ll find me waiting, still right here.

So here I stand, with open hands,Not asking yet, but making plans.If life allows, if we both see,a love where it’s still we.And when we’re ready, when hearts can trust,I’m here, waiting for my best friend, waiting for us.
