Poetry & Self-Awareness

Would you rather have me around?
I leave you alone while I gather my thoughts
Would you rather discover the truth?
Uncover lies? Or would you rather keep to yourself, put the lies back in the shelves
Seal them in books, I know you rather that I don’t look, you’re shook

Would you rather not have me around?
I tried to leave one time and in tears you almost drowned
Would you rather I leave town so that you tell everyone I let you down?
I know you’d rather I step down
Just because you didn’t treat me like a queen doesn’t mean I’m not
You thought you had me in a spellbound, so you missed the sight of my crown
