"Will you be okay?"
You asked me so casually,
as if I was some sort of a character
from a video game, you were playing,
with a couple of extra hearts to spare.

I automatically got the message when you asked me that question - that it was really time to go. Of course I was hoping you'd say something to stop me, but instead you asked if I was gonna be okay. Would you have stayed if I said no?
