Stay with me.

We can’t leave each other, not yet.

Stay with me.

I left you because I had no other choice-me being with you was hurting both of us.

I’m different now. I’m ready to be with you. I’ve changed.

I’m not perfect, but I wouldn’t ever want to be perfect- I just want you.

Stay with me.

I don’t have to hurt us anymore- I’m strong enough to protect both of us now. No one will hurt you under my care. Don’t go with him.

I can’t force you to stay, and I won’t, but I want you to be at my side.

My life cannot go on, my mind and soul are being beaten without you, tortured from the inside.

Stay with me.

Be Open Says;

Everyone can contribute to this Open Poem!
