Poetry group 6 months ago
Stay
You took advantage of a vulnerable situation
Gave me your hand that led me to lies
I just wanted you to stay
Now I need you to stay awayEmpty promises of passion and adventure
Sounded so great until you took it away
I wish I could hate you but I have too much empathy
Still, I hope you stay a million miles awayStay with me
Stay away
Stop playing this little game
I wish you could take all the blame
We’re both guilty of the sky turning greyIn ten years you will be ready for something more
When you come I won’t answer the door
Permanently closed to the idea of reconciliation
I threw away the key to our ultimate fantasy
Stay where you are

Courtney, this is such a powerful poem. You are heard through this platform and I’m so happy that you are able to walk away from a situation that no longer served your purpose. You are a light unto others who have a hard time expressing how they feel. This is a beautiful piece. Thank you!
