Then

if your great hopes
and grand plans go awry,
if you find yourself so lonesome
one day that you cry,
if you think back to now
from then somehow,

you might think that you'll see me,
standing by,
like you left me,
hollowed-out,
bent and paralyzed,

just waiting once again
to see that light in your eyes,
happy to see you return
to my skies,
ready to pick up
where we left off,
wanting you again
in my life,

but you will be wrong.
