STAY

I'm not going to lie
I didn't really try
I didn't try to make you stay when you wanted to leave
I didn't try to show you how much I wanted you
Because I know you didn't want me enough
You didn't stay
I'm not going to ask why, because I'm glad
I'm glad you left
Now I know what my path is
And I know more about myself
I didn't need you to know
How much I matter
And all that matters is that I will always stay.
