To the person I never knew
Im writing to you, on the day you left this world
The person I never knew
I really wish I had gotten the chance to know you, but it simply didnt work out that way
Ive known you forever, since I came out from the womb, in fact
We share DNA, we share love, we share stories
But youre still a person I never really knew
I heard stories about you
How funny you were
How handsome you were
How much people loved you
But something must have shifted, and I dont know when
Maybe it was the pain from you past
Maybe it was the pain from your present
Maybe it was all of it
I dont know,
But things shifted for you
I knew your smile for a split second, and then it went away
And things changed, and you changed.
And I never really knew you
I saw you a lot.
You came around
But I didnt know who you were
I wont lie, it never bothered me too much
It was just how it was
I would hug you, and I knew you existed
But I didnt know you
And now that youre gone
All I can think about is what I missed out on
How I wish I got to know you
How I wish you got to know me
Its a shame
Families are put together to love
But sometimes the pain pulls us apart
And I think thats what happened here
You were in pain
We are all in pain
And our pain kept us apart
I hope you know I love you. And I wish I knew you.
