Why I Never Left
This is Tug-of-War!
Except I'm all alone.
Playing with myself
(Which is nothing new.)
I am being pulled toward you
With every breath I take,
Even when I’m screaming,
Crying,
Begging,
Hoping.
“Please, God, just make it stop!”
Put simply:
“Because I love you.”

Love the short crisp lines ... internal monologue ... self conflict ... you captured it perfectly
