The Nightmare Merry-Go-Round

The Nightmare Merry-Go-Round

A Poem by StormeLight

You learn how to love

You finally open up

You watch everyone run

You run away and then you ask me to stay

I loved you

I told you it was this way

But there you go again

Running, running, running away

You ask me to stay

You push me away

Kicking and screaming

I fight to stay

But you just push me

You push me away

Then when the door is slammed

Right in my face

You turn around

You smile and say

You should go

But please stay?
