Staying

I can't believe this.
It can't be true.
This can't be happening.
Unfortunately
it is,
I shake my head
and whisper:
"No."
Trying not to listen,
to ignore the words
you are saying
but,
I still hear and feel them anyways.
You say you loved me,
you don't anymore.
You say you don't want to cause me pain.
Guess what?
It's too late.
The pain is there.
It won't leave.
You try to touch me,
to give me a little
comfort.
I flinch and move back,
saying "Leave me alone."
Turning away from you,
telling myself not to
crack.
Though once I start
to walk away,
my tears just won't
stay at bay.
Coming down my cheeks,
I've lost my control.
I feel so weak.
So helpless,
like I've done something
wrong,
but in my heart I know
I've only done one thing wrong.
That was to give you my
heart.
I look over my shoulder at you
and give you a look that will forever be
etched into your mind.
I run forward,
as far away from you
as I can possibly go.
As I'm running
I'm wishing I could turn back
time.
Wishing I had never
fallen for someone like you.
You said you loved me;
I know the truth.
You can't fool me anymore.
As a warning
to the next girl to come around,
don't lie to me or break my heart.
Because
in the end,
you will be the one running.
Wishing you could turn back
time.
Not me though.
No.
Definitely not me.
I'm tired ov running away.
I'm happy where I am.
So,
I think I'll stay.
