Matching Scars

I wish I could say I love you

And have it be fully true

I know I once said I always would

But I hope you know I would have loved you still

If you hadn’t changed into someone I barely knew

I hope you know I forget not to count you

Some nights when I set the table

I hope you know all the snowmen I make

I still give them your favorite names

I hope the person you used to be

Still lives somewhere inside you

I hope that person still loves the person I used to be

I hope you still think of me

When our favorite stars peak out through the trees

I hope whoever you are

Who I was is still branded on your heart

I wish for us, now grown apart

An eternity of matching scars
