And I stayed with you How pathetic is that? I stayed through the Webcam porn (god how pathetic are you?) And the constant, drumming into my head That you will change But you never have Because you know that I will forgive you Through the constant Rejection and the constant “Please, not today” Well what the fuck am I supposed to do With your promises? But I will stay because you ask me to Not because there is anything left here for me to fight for Not because there is anything left here to want But because you reached out for me and pulled me back To this constant rummaging through your things And I dread what I will find this time Because I can’t handle anymore pictures Or secrets Or things that always seem to break my heart. But I stay Because I think to myself that in my rummaging I will find good Good in you Good in us Good in this godforsaken relationship. One more day. I’ll survive this. Whatever today’s heartbreak is. I’ll survive this. So I’ll lay here, Naked and breathless, Hoping you’ll look at me, And make me believe that In the darkness Of your mother’s basement There is something worth staying for. |
