stay

03.03.26

These days, there is someone whose name whispers

that He hasn’t given up on me.

And it whispers when she isn’t talking.

I hear it when

all she does is stay.

My greeds have told it to go. And they’ve regretted it every time.

But the next time, I tell you, it whispers again.

And when I finally believe it enough to look,

she is there.
