If you walk away,
Don’t try to come back
Because if you come back,
I can tell you how it’ll unfold
No matter where I am in my life,
I’ll automatically let you back in.
I’ll forgive you,
Even for things you haven’t yet forgiven yourself for
I’ll open back up
I’ll let you be in a position once again where you can destroy me
From the inside, out.
I’ll trust you.
Despite all of the negativity you have caused me,
I won’t be able to resist you,
And you know that.
You’ll stop chasing me
I’ll begin to chase you,
But we both know you’re faster
You’ll leave me shattered,
With cuts from my own broken shards
I’ll hold you accountable for my pain
I’ll hate you once again,
But I’ll hate myself more for handing you
My ability to be okay
I’ll slowly begin to pick myself up
And someone else will come along,
To help me glue myself together
Many pieces will be missing
The pieces you took with you,
Because you couldn’t admit that you didn’t want to let me go
I’ll move on
I’ll give my heart to someone else
And I’ll forget about you,
While you realize you loved me more,
Than you thought you would
You’ll begin to miss me more and more
Until you can’t bear it anymore
But I’ll be with someone else.
So please.
For both of our sakes,
If you walk away,
Stay away.
