Please stay

by Em   Mar 25, 2021


Stay with me a while,
please,

make we want to smile -
I haven't for some time
despite saying "I'm fine."

I just want to be wanted,
know that I will be missed.

I don't want to carry on
feeling like I don't exist.

We used to tell each other everything
now I can tell you absolutely nothing.

    I hear your pain. If only they would stay and just listen, make you feel you matter, that you have feelings too. When trust is abused, it is hard to brush that off and make the effort 'again' . Sometimes the only person you can trust is yourself. Sometimes the only person you should love is yourself. Maybe that love and trust for the self will spill over in time to be flood the senses of that one true person waiting for you. ((hugs)) xx

    Such a yearnful piece Em, nicely said albeit a sad tone.
    Hope you are well. M :)
