I could run away
Sometimes it’s what I’m best at
Where would you be?
Where would I be?
You’d be with someone else
and I’d still just be sitting here
Writing
Some days my heart is a sinking ship
Being dragged down by the weight of my own thoughts
My own overthinking
Fears only manifested in nightmares
Never really living
Never really alive
I’ll wait
I’ll wait because it’s what we have
I’ll wait
I’ll wait because this is where we are
Not running away
Standing still
I’ll wait as long as you need
Unconditional and smiling
I’ll wait…
