Stay

I know what I know, so why do I stay?

I know what I know

And what I know hurts me

You hurt me,

But I stay.

I feel like I’m enough

But not enough for you

Your actions show that I’m not enough for you

But I stay.

The inappropriate connections

The public denials

The hidden interactions, with lies to conceal

But I still stay.

Why do I stay?

Why can’t I get away?

Is the pain addictive?

I don’t feel like there’s a hold but I’m here

Why am I here?

But still, I stay.

I don’t know why I stay

But still, I stay.
