Part Of The Narrative

Stay

 

Hold on

 

I know you’re tired

Tired of hearing that

Tired of school

Of people 

Of living

 

I know

You want 

To stop

 

Stay

Please

There are people

Who need you

Not because

You owe them something

But because 

They love you

They want you

They need you

 

What would happen? 

If you

Left?

 

There’s no way

For you to know

 

I wish I could tell you

How much we love you

How we wish

We could make you

Understand

 

That no matter

How much you feel

Like you’re alone

Like you’re unloved

Unwanted

Like you don’t matter

Like we’d be

Better

Off

Without you

 

That we-

We–

I

Need you

 

Remember

How the God

That made the stars

The mountains

The oceans

The planets

Took time

To carefully

Craft 

You

 

And he 

Does NOT

Make 

mistakes

 

“A lot of love

Definitely 

She should like reading!

Yes

Amazing at writing?

Of course

A way of touching people’s hearts

A way of helping others

A sacrificial attitude 

A fire

A whole 

Lot 

Of strength.

 

Hardships too

She can’t 

Be weak

I won’t let her

Be sheltered

I’m growing her

I’m refining her

Just

You

Wait

 

To see

What I’m gonna do 

With her

 

You’re not ready

I promise.”

 

Stay

Hold on

Cuz your goodbye

Would mean

Forever

 

You 

Would be throwing away

The purpose 

He has for you

The life

He’s planned for you

The plans he has

To touch other people

Through

You

 

Stay

And find out

 

Stay 

And let me

Hold you

 

Stay 

And watch

Miracles

Happen

 

Stay

With

Me
