I've seen you before
Sad one
You think you're nothing
That this world in you're absence will become some bright flowery garden of eden
Peace will fill the land
And cup will overflow with milk and honey...
But no...
In reality the world would crumble into a vast wasteland of sorrow and darkness
The world of a Mother
Who went through 29 hours of natural birth just to hear you scream for the first of many times
The world of a Father
Who swore by God no harm would ever come to you
The world of a Sibling
Who lookS to you as an example and a mentor
The world of a Best Friend
You know, the one you've known and grown with since K-1?
And lets not forget dear old Spot
Who will sneak him treats under the table?
You see?
If you leave not only does the world not get better
But you actually destroy a magnitude of precious Worlds in the process
So please...
Take off your coat...
Stay a while.
