Don’t Let Me Go

I know it’s asking
For way too much
Than what you ever
Signed up for.
But it would mean a lot,
If you don’t let me go.

I may quarrel.
I may fight.
I may irritate.
I may infuriate.
But it would mean a lot,
If you don’t let me go.

I know I am difficult.
I know I am silly.
I know I am clumsy.
I know I am too much.
But it would mean a lot,
If you don’t let me go.

I am not your dream girl.
Heck, I may not be anyone’s.
I am not the good girl.
Heck, I may be more black than white.
But it would mean a lot,
If you don’t let me go.

I may not have much to offer,
Except an uninhibited
Version of myself
And a feeling from my heart
Screaming it would mean a lot,
If you don’t let me go.
