Stay

I often wonder why
You respond to my every manipulation
Don’t you see it coming?

You feed into my pretty hands
Like a bird hopping on its perch
Waiting to fly

If you mention me
Paying attention to you
One thing becomes too clear

You have to be watching me
To know I am watching you
It takes two, after all

Watch me watch you
I do not mind
As long as you stay where you are
