Stay

I was made for

Good books and good coffee,

Rainy days, thunderstorms and autumn weather,

I was made for the moon and quiet nights.

 

I was made to

Be a daughter and a sister,

A cousin, a niece and a friend.

To maybe one day be a wife and a mother.

 

I was made to

Love, to have empathy and compassion, to listen and to learn.

I was made to help others feel less alone.

I was made to survive.

 

I was made for

The clouds and the sky,

For cats and their love, for music and live shows and the arts.

I was made for writing and dancing and travelling.

 

I may not be this person yet but these are the reasons why I have decided, on several occasions, to stay.

 

I stay so that I can become that person, experience these things and live.
