I lived through silence and sound with you

through floods, earthquakes and hurricanes

lived through highs and lows and everything in between

I always chose you

still choosing you.

why did you stop choosing me?

exactly when was it that you realized that I wasn't enough

not worth fighting for

because if I was you'd still be here, fighting with me

fighting for me.

we lived through it all

the heart ache and for gods sake why

did you stop choosing me

I was never perfect, I'm still not

but neither were you, but I stayed

you hurt me and I stayed

you lied and ran and cried and screamed and pushed and pulled

and I, simply, never left.

was that not what you asked for...

someone who would get to know your cracks and creases

who could hold up your bits and pieces

who would stay through to the end of the world and longer

was that not what you wanted.

I didn't have to.

But I did.

I stayed and chose you.

Why the **** didn't you choose me.

why'd you stop choosing me why the **** did you leave me

why didn't you choose me why don't you choose me

we all know I know you best

we all know I love you most

more than all the ****** rest

I kept you happy

kept your anxiety away

and I helped you breathe do you remember saying that

do you remember telling me that

I do. I remember.

why then

now why is all I'm left with

why did you stop

why do I stay

why do you push me away

why do you pull me in

why why why

why

why was I not enough.
