"Please Don't Leave"
This is about a mother leaving her family because she thinks she deserves more…
"Please Don't Leave" belongs to the following groups:
! 100% !In the hallway she stands
Knuckles white from gripping
The tattered strands
Of her families hearts…
They can’t understand
Who she is…
And what she has done to their home
But none of that will matter
If she leaves…
Throws her possessions into the river
And allows her life to wash away…
Leaving sand and silt
Across a storm damaged shore.
Will she desert them?
Will her name become a memory?
She feels alone… and suffocated.
She says we don’t know how to love.
But we do…
And we love her
More than she will ever know.
Because it is she…
Who does not understand love.
She… who took the name from our family…
“Please don’t leave”... we whisper…
But words fall on deaf ears…
Is she anything but selfish?
