Analysis of hey if you’re reading

lilac 2000 (United States)



I’m sorry if you’re reading this.
I didn’t expect you to read this, hell I didn’t expect anybody to see this.
I wish it didn’t have to end this way.
I’m sorry for leaving you without an explanation.
One day I hope to see you again at our love spot darling.
Until then, goodbye and goodnight darling.
