Stay back
Stay in the past
Please no "What are up to?"
Or "Hey, how have you been?"

There's a reason you're there
Staying put behind the curtain
I'm still healing from the last time
That I left myself wide open  

I'm not interested in pleasantries
Or if you're single again
I blocked you on social media
I should have blocked your number as well

So please stay where I left you
Because if you ask I'll say I'm not well
But it's only because I'm seeing your name
And it's scary to see a demon from hell

So stay away
And leave me alone
I don't care if you're proud of me
For having the guts to move on

You shattered me to pieces
With your slick silver tongue
You promised me true love
As long as I did want you wanted

I can't even speak of these things
The bizarre behavior I can't explain
What I accepted and allowed
I'm ashamed to have carried your name

I do everything I possibly can
To not think about the pain you caused
So stay the **** away from me
Or be put down like a rabid dog
