i stayed

i saw you on stage last night.
it was really tonight, but i had to separate with a day in my mind
so i saw you on stage last night.
i saw so many things on you last night.
i saw so many things in you last night.
i saw me in so many ways with you last night.
and for the first time, i let me be me last night.
but then i had a reality check. with this lye i'm afraid to wreck,
i stayed seated and stayed watching.
i stayed quiet and stayed longing.
i stayed.
i stayed.
i stayed.
