Honesty

I can't be the man
who stays,
it's very complicated,
I've been trying to get myself
out of something for a long time

I just wanted to
know what it would be like,
to be with you,

I wanted to be the bridge
that will lead you
to something better,
someone better

i wanted to be honest
but was afraid you'd
send me packing,
and you'd have every right to
I love being with you,
you are the first person
who has given me the freedom
to be myself,
in a long time,
it makes me want you more,
I want to stay for my own selfish reasons
he presses her against the wall,
she can feel the heat of him rising again

she looks him in the eye
"time to go"
