Why Would You Stay?

Why would you leave

By Sender Jeannestal Published about a year ago Updated 6 months ago 1 min read

If there’s anything you gave me it was definitely a lesson

You taught me that circles could have angles

It’s in between the lines

Like you’re a liar for an example

I guess I was more than capable

Over qualified

A black sheep at your stable

A painting from Picasso in a 200 sq ft studio

Why I stayed so long if it was so wrong?

Easy, you don’t do right because you expect it

You do right because it’s justice

You can’t break what’s already broken and you can’t fix what isn’t

I stayed in the present no matter what your past presented

Where do we go from here?

Maybe the future knows the past’s secrets

Maybe the present is having relations with visions and we both cumming

I say enjoy the ride

until you stop telling lies

We will always complain that we never finished

But the truth will help us understand why we started
