Let me remind you that you're my only memory that grips me by the wrist and rips my consciousness through the candy coated past and stumbling blindly within the impossible future
I was dodging sink holes and quicksand desperately trying to keep in your line of sight and now that you have clear vision I'm sure you remember my pulse quickening when your phone would ring
The same pulse pounded when you said you were going leave
Unless I wanted you to stay
I couldn't dare be the one
To say
I am good enough.
I swear I am.
Now,
**Please stay.
