Anticipatory grief — written about Andrea Swift's cancer diagnosis. The speaker knows what is coming and cannot stop it; the grief has already begun before the loss has arrived. Andrea (Patreon member) described it as 'a great example of anticipatory grief'. One of Taylor's most private and rarely performed songs.
