I want to leave.
Even planning on never coming back
Fucked up right?
Abandoning everything we’ve built up together
You wouldn’t follow along though
Leaving would be pointless- if you came with,
You’re the reason I’m even leaving in the first place
Say I do leave…
Leave you behind
Can you still stay?
Will you still stay?
Waiting for me like a loyal wife when her husband goes to war?
Though… saying that outloud is unfair to you
You’re not my wife, I don’t think you’d ever want to be my wife
I- I think you’d make a good one though
Would you wait for me?
Despite everything I’ve done to you?
Stringing you along and shutting you out
The reason you’d stay is because you love me
The reason I’d leave is….because I hate you
I love you too though, too much it made me hate you for it
Leaving wouldn’t be hard, if I’m being honest
I won’t blame you if you moved on
You’ll find someone more deserving
Who I’ll find doesn’t matter.
But- you know,
if you left?
I’d stay
