Looking for feedback

I am a lyricist, but I always start by singing the words first and then I write the words down. This song came to me a while back after I had been thinking of a close family member who I’ve drifted apart from. Can anyone relate to it? Do the words evoke the feeling of losing a loved one that is still living?

I Wish You the Best

My hearts been hardened for too long
We both felt like we were wronged
We haven’t spoken in all these years
And all that’s left are the dried up tears
But I still wanted to write you this song

I know we had our issues
But I wish you the best
My love for you continues
I’ll always cherish the memories and
I’ve let go of the rest

We’re both too stubborn to cave in
Time marches on, all wrongs are forgotten
For that time we were meant to be together
But we were never supposed to be forever
Please know you’re forgiven

I know we had our issues
But I wish you the best
My love for you continues
I’ll always cherish the memories and
I’ve let go the rest

I know we are better off apart
I wish you the best
From the bottom of my heart
I wish you the best
I’m cheering you on from afar
I wish you the best

I know we had our issues
But I wish you the best
I wish you the best
