I need you to stay
Like the moon needs the sun
Like the lungs need the air
Like the trees need the rain
I want you to stay
Like a child wants its mother
Like a dog wants a bone
Like an athlete wants to win
I've always wanted to fly
And I feel you give me wings
I've always wanted to be in the spotlight
And with you I'm the only star
So I hope you'll stay
You have to stay
You have to see how much I love you
You have to know how much I care
You have to wonder how much I would do for you
You have to imagine our life together
I need you to stay
Like death needs life
Like life needs love
Like night needs day
But
You Left
-mjj
This poem is about love and how you feel until it's gone.

Autonomy Is The Real Privilege
Good morning, freedom-seekers! Today we’re gonna be looking at autonomy. A strange word, I know; one many would probably look at blankly and run away from on sight. We’re gonna figure out what it actually means, consider how it’s achieved, and decipher just how deeply most of us are tangled up in dependence without realising it.
