Please don't leave me
lying in the dirt
giving me nothing to do
but wallow and hurt.

please don't leave me
to stitch my own wounds
leaving my body
to be consumed.

Please don't leave me
to be all alone
and let my mind become
a giant cyclone.

Please don't leave me
to fight my battles without you
because I'm not sure
I can even get through.

so please don't leave.
