The day I left


The day I left

I'll never reclaim

The day I left

I'll forever feel the shame

The day I left

I watched myself break everyone's hearts

The day I left

I realized the pain I was trying to end, would now be prolonged

The day I left

was the day I found out I belonged

The day I left

was the day I found out I was made brilliantly, magnificently, beautifully

The day I left

was the day I found out I was loved unconditionally

The day I left

was the day I realized that I never should have gone.

Don't leave.
