Letting Go

I don’t want to….

I don’t want to….

I don’t want to….

Please tell me why I

Shouldn’t. Please convince me to

Stay. I’m here,

Sitting, crying. Lost in thought.

Please pull me back in. Pull me

Back into that wicked web you have so

Masterfully weaved. Do you know how much you occupy every

Ounce of me? Do you know how you have slowly

Taken over my existence? Please tell me why….

Please tell me why you planned to just

Leave me out to dry. I should have

Learned my lesson, yet here I am. Begging you to

Yank on my arms. I want to be trapped by your

Words. I crave seeing that

Sinful gleam in your eyes when you feel you’ve finally won this

Game. Others have gotten in my ear. They’ve spent their hours

Whispering, dictating what my next action should be. I’ll

Ignore them, just to feel the pain you constantly

Cause me. Please tell me why I shouldn’t just

Turn and never look back. Please tell me why I

Need to waltz right back into your

Tight grip.

I don’t want to…

I don’t want to…

I don’t want to…

I, I, I,

I have to….
