Stay

Stay Go! I screamed. Leave! Start spreading the distance between you and me. Why is all of this happening so quickly? Go, I roared. Stay I whisper…Stay As I watched you walk away. White is black, black is white I don’t care about anything tonight I know it’s not wrong, but it doesn’t feel right People strike first to take the lead Others continuously choose to fight Some sink low and kill the heart I feel we should end it before it even starts Hoping I could come or you could stay Knowing you have to leave Go, I screamed, wishing you’d listen to me Pleading God gives me the strength I need To sacrifice what I love most in order for you to succeed I know you would do this for me any day Leave I said, release me from my fears Go I smiled, trying to hold back my tears I’ve known you for too long, too many years I see you, I feel you, I need you, I think about you everyday I hear your voice in my head, in my ears Go I said, the sooner I can forget Leave I cried, before I start to regret. This is why I don’t attach. It’s better to be alone, my skills unmatched, Nothing to hold me back, my armor unscratched. It’s a never-ending cycle; it’s all the same People come and people go. That’s never going to change, and there’s no one to blame. The moon is up, it’s full and bright The stars are out, there’s so many tonight The doors are locked, my heart has stopped, and I look at the clock. It’s over, it’s done, you’re gone. Why do the happy moments happen so fast, but the painful ones and their aftermaths last so long? It’s cold, I’m cold, I’m numb inside. Goodbye I said to you. I love you, I’ll miss you That’s what I said to you. Listening to my logic. Keeping my pride as my soul cried What to do now I wonder? Moving on isn’t easy. Taking one step at a time, as my head throbs, my heart aches My stomach feels queasy and my lips shake Go! I yelled, Leave! I screeched with all my might Finally finishing this internal struggle I faced and ending this endless strife I need you to go, I want you to know, it’ll be all right I wonder and dread how many more times I’ll have to do this in my life Does it ever get any easier? Was it worth it in the end? Leave, Go Stay here…with me I don’t know You tell me.
