What do you do when she asks you to stay
When she does not want you to move on
When she remembers how much you mean to her
When she reminds you how much she means to you
When "This is okay" turns into "I'm not ready to lose you"
You stay,
Because she is beautiful
Because time invested cannot be taken back
Because forever does not come with exceptions
Because "I love you" means "I love you"
Not
"Right now you mean the world to me but I'm changing my mind tomorrow"
You stay,
Because you know that's what you want to do
You need to do it,
Spare them the strain of dealing with baggage
You stay,
Because you love her
and it makes sense to love yourself.
