“You seem to be wanting
everything yesterday.
Always the impossible.
That's what you seem to portray.
Give me one good reason
why even if I stay,
you won't walk away from me
tomorrow. Today.”

— Gilbert O'Sullivan

Context: I've been driving for an hour; just talking to the rain. You say I've been driving you crazy, and it's keeping you away. So, just give me one good reason. Tell me why, I should stay. Because I don't want to waste another moment, saying things we never meant to say. And I? Take it, just a little bit. I? Hold my breath and count to ten, I? I've been waiting for a chance, to let you in. If I just, breathe? Let it fill the space between? I'll know, everything is alright. Breathe, every little piece of me. You'll see, everything is alright. If I just, breathe.
