Never Stray Poem by Erwick Brandon

Never Stray



How else can I say this?
There's only one way to put this.
I don't wanna live without you here.
My eyes are heavy with baggage.
My heart is suffering from breakage.
I'm at my lowest low, and I am afraid.

I put on a suit and I straighten my tie.
Hoping that you will believe that I'm fine.
But maybe it's time I
come clean.

With you I will always be true.
But patience is not a virtue
or a quality that I possess.

How do I come back from this?
How do I find the will to fight?
Without you fighting by my side?
Say you'll wait around for me.
Say that you will never stray.
And I swear that I will always do the same.

Seeing you for what seems like a second.
Is something I won't take for granted.
I want you to know that I treasure that time.

I'm trying to honor the direction.
Abide by the rules I have been given.
But so far I just cannot comply.

This is not only the hardest thing,
but it's seems so unfair to me.
Taking away my other half.

How do I come back from this?
How do I find the will to fight?
Without you fighting by my side?
Say you'll wait around for me.
Say that you will never stray.
And I swear that I will always do the same.

Say you'll wait around for me.
Say that you will never stray.
And I swear that I will always do the same.
