Don’t, just…

I don’t want to be dying to make you love me,

just want to love you ‘til death

I don’t want to build you up,

just to destroy myself

I don’t want to give you everything,

just to wind up with nothing

I don’t want to dream about you,

just to have you absent in my reality

I don’t want to help you heal,

just so you can leave me damaged

I don’t want to be ever present for you,

just to end up feeling so alone

I don’t want to give you all my love,

just to hate myself for it later

If you don’t want to be alone,

Just realize I love you

If you don’t want to be lost,

just let me guide you

If you don’t want to be sad,

just let me make you happy

If you don’t want me,

just say so

If you don’t want me to leave,

just ask me to stay

If you don’t want me to break,

just put me back together

If you don’t want me to die,

just bring me back to life

[Coyote Poetry]

I do understand these words.
"If you don’t want me to leave,
just ask me to stay
If you don’t want me to break,
just put me back together
If you don’t want me to die,
just bring me back to life"
Hard to ask and something must be answered. I like the flow of thoughts leading to the honest ending. Thank you for sharing the excellent poetry.
