Ten Years From Now
Ten years from now...
I see myself with another man. Looking back on today and smiling deep down inside. I'll remember the security that i felt from being with you. I'll remember the calls, the kisses, the jokes. I'll remember the songs and the places. I'll think about you, and i'll wonder what you're doing, who you're with. I'll wonder if you're happy. If you think about me at all.
I'll wonder what you feel when you remember the things that i remember.
Ten years from now...
I see myself with another man. Looking back on today and frowning deep down inside. I never imagined we'd end up that way. I never imagined these memories would hurt me so much. I try to block you out of my life, out of my memories. I try to forget all the songs that remind me of you, i try to avoid all the places that make me think of you. I try not to think about you and hope that you're not thinking about me either.
I hope that you don't remember what i remember because i'm trying to make believe that they don't exist.
Ten years from now...
I see myself with you. But you've changed. I've changed also. I try to remember what it was like between us and i try to understand what has changed. I tell myself that this is what i've always wanted but things didn't quite turn out the way i hoped they would. I question my decision of staying with you. I try to figure out where we went wrong. I try to fix it.
I wonder if i've made a huge mistake.
Ten years from now...
I see myself with you. I see myself happy. I'm with you and everything worked out perfectly. It's too amazing to be real, it's almost like a dream. Everything i ever wished for and wanted came true. I have you all to myself and we're so happy.
We have a family, we have a future.
We're happy we stayed together. We're even more in love.
We're successful, we understand each other so well.
We're not bored, we dont regret staying together.
We thank God everyday for making this work.

The only thing i can guarentee is your memory. Whether you're with me when i remember you, or whether you are a good memory or a bad one i do not know.
But i do know that you will be there ... ten years from now.
Even if it's just as a memory.

Expectation is the root of all heartache.
William Shakespeare
Just live your life. And live by your day. Don't think much of the future.
P.S. Thank you for removing that annoying Word Verification.
