I listen and I wait so forlornly
I try to escape,
but this feeling has got me
I'll see this through
Who's gonna stop me
I still wanna be with you
If you still want me
Waiting for you to see the truth is so exhausting
I wanna wake up to you every morning
Tip toe my way to work,
and hope that you saw me
We let it go before,
and for that I'm so sorry
I can't take the anticipation of you calling
This still hurts
An ending without warning
I still wanna be with you
If you still want me

I want to grow
I want to grow and I’m going to grow. I’m not going to be this version of myself anymore and you won’t know who I become. You won’t talk to her, or be by her side as she goes through life— you won’t know her. Her heart won’t even remember the small moments that’ve clung to it for so long. I’ll watch her embrace a new life that has nothing to do with you, and there won’t be a space waiting like there has been for far too long.

Emotional lines..
So emotional and gorgeously resonant with the way you describe love and yearning for another person.
The repetition of "I still wanna be with you, If you still want me" adds a sense of yearning and a plea for connection, the raw honesty and genuine emotions expressed in this poem make it relatable and resonant, thank you very much for sharing, love your works, hope to read more, subscribed.
