I'd like to believe that I've grown as a person since then
When we met in that basement
A friendship that I took for granted again
I know I was wrong
Our time spent taught me many life lessons
I'll always take them with me
I'll never strive for perfection
Grow into the person that you always thought I could be
A version of me, unachievable, only in dreams
A nonexistent incomparably great human being
Somebody you thought you could find somewhere else
You left me behind to learn about myself
I'd like to believe that our time was no better spent
When I was with you
No matter how short I'll never forget what it meant
To live up to your expectations
Exceptional standards of friendship nobody could meet
Except in your head
I've grown from the guilt that you have dealt
To be a better person than me
I'll grow and we'll grow away from our friendship
Just know I learned more than you think that I did
I am not someone you could find somewhere else
You left me behind to learn about myself
