stay

How could I stay when you have done everything to push me away Time and time again, I fall for you like you ask me to Only to be left burnt and alone I open the doors to my mind and soul inviting you, hoping we could stay You slam them behind you screaming "you're not worth it" So I run, I run far away You chase me, you pull me, you suck me back in. I'm drowning, your grinning, you know you'll win How do I escape the madness of a place I have formed from dreams that turned into nightmares I need out I want you out too I fight and I fight hoping thos time you will see I'm worth it Clenching onto those fragments of gold Fooled once again This time, this time, I have learned At what cost, it feels like my sanity is all but forgotten Who I am or better yet, what am I becoming Once a shell of a women so battered and bruised Now rising above, refusing to go back Fuck it hurts, it hurts so much. My skin feels like it's dying, part of me is dying The part that was attached to you So it dies, I leave it, I have to let it go Because to save it, rebuild it, repair it again will only result in this inevitable end An end I don't want, one I've worked so hard to overcome Forgiving not forgetting the bricks laid alone Tho
