A Girl in a Forgetful World

Please Don't Abandon Me

It was a beautiful day.

The sun was shining through the trees

And the air was fresh.

It was the middle of a hot July.

I don't remember much of it,

But I do remember what I was told.

You left us

Because you couldn't handle us.

You hurt us,

You made us cry,

And yet you call it all a lie.

As Fall Out Boy once said,

"Thanks for the memories,

Even though they weren't so great."

You made me stronger,

But that doesn't mean these scars don't hurt.

I wish I didn't have to see you just because I could,

Not because I want.

I wish I could leave you.

I wish someone acted like they cared.

I wish someone knew that that part of me was there.

I wish I could be alright.

I wish I could say "I love you" every night

And not know that you might leave me one day.

But wishes do not always come true.

Please don't abandon me,

I beg and plead.

Please don't leave me in the middle of the night

Crying,

Wishing it would be alright.

Please don't abandon me.

I need you here

To love me.

Because no one else will.

Please don't abandon me,

Please, please, please!

I need every breath,

Every wisp of humanity

That I can get.

If you leave, I can't recover.

I can't get over what I thought I had

But was never really there.

Please don't abandon me......

But I see you already have.
