I wanted to say,
"Don't leave."
But I told you to go anyway.

Because I realized a life with me,
Would never put your mind at ease.
That you'd be at my beck and call,
Whenever I fell down to my knees.

That you'd grow tired of me.
Of taking care of me and all that I am.
All that I am not.
All that I wished I could've been.

I told you to go.
And to not look back,
But it seems you must've saw something in me.

You haven't left me.
I wish you would've listened.
The way I listened to me.
The way I left, me.
And never looked back.

I wanted you to feel free.,
Free of me.
But it seems you like to feel chained.
To deadweight,
Like me.

I told you to leave.
For your well being.
But you stayed,
For mine.

Except you didn't realize,
You were staying for nothing.
There isn't anything in me,
Worth fighting for.

You'll realize once,
You've felt me through.
Once I've ran my course.

How much of death and toxicity,
I'll remind you of.

Then you'll wish you'd listened.
When I told you,
To leave.
