Staying


At first I was very skeptical about this

Love was not my worst or best suit

And ours could've been a hit and miss

Until I finally grew and went to pursuit

A smile rose like the sun in the morning

My life was filled with pride and joy

But suddenly, you were gone without any warning

I had lost you, my only favorite boy

Soon my life had begun to crash

You had gone and I was left alone

Then everything changed within a small flash

My life snapped in half like a bone

 

You said you were here now to stay

But to you, staying meant very far away.
