a poem by Avery :)

TW: suicide

Don’t go

Don’t go.

Please don’t go.

Stay,

Stay for me.

Stay.

My firefly in the night.

My beautiful bug, full of light.

Even if your light is not so bright

That’s ok

I still want you to stay

Because any light

Even if it’s not bright

Is worth seeing.

Life is worth being.

Ten.

Not again

Nine.

Not another life

Eight.

Please wait

Seven.

Stay

Six.

Sticks and stones

Five.

Break bones

Four.

Breaks my heart

Three.

Stay for me

Two.

Stay for you

One.

I love you

I wish you’d stayed.

I wish you’d opened your eyes

before you’d jumped.

You’d have seen what you mean to me.

To him, to her, to them, to us

So you dear reader, just know

Before you go.

There's always someone out there

Somewhere

That sees your glow.

That cares whether you stay

Or you go
