No, you don't get to say that.
Not that I'll be just another girl
To leave you in her past.
Trust me when I say
I'm not the type to leave you.
***
She probably left because you cheated on her too right?
I won't leave you though.
I'll stay and push through it with you,
Give you another chance.
Believe in the lies
I'll pretend I don't see you being suspect
Or that I didn't just see that flash on your phone.
I won't make a big deal
Yes, my love, I'll still stay.
***
I will be the type to stay
Until you've turned me inside out,
And my world upside down.
I'll stay until I start compromising my values
And moral codes
And doing things out of anger
The before me would never do.
I'll start to fuck up your life.
***
I told you
I won't leave you
Until you have managed to turn me into exactly what you are...
A monster, of your creation.

A Dart at Dusk
Seconds ago, the sullen sun set on the two of us… my exuberant furry companion and me. A fresh breeze embraces us, delivering welcome relief from the day’s oppressive heat. His typical stumbling and staggering along — apace with a sloth — has turned into trip-trapping, high-stepping, almost skipping along.

Don’t mess with you, Tressa. I stayed for my daughter sake and then I left for my daughter sake. If I stay, I was teaching her it’s ok to stay in a toxic relationship.
