Poetry

Staying

sometimes doesn’t make things better

in the end.

The words that slipped from your lips that day

feel like something you read in a book.

I didn’t think you really meant the words that came out your mouth

because I thought all you wanted was for me to stay.

You’ve shown me that your words come with action and you follow through with

the things that matter to you.
