I know I can win

But do I want to?

You don't sound happy.
You play it off as something else.
You normally have an out for everything.
Where is it this time?
You've convinced yourself this is the only way.
But I say it's not.
I see your potential.
I always have.
I know you are better and have been happier than this.
I want to say this to you.
But you have stopped listening to me.
I'm just an ear. A silent partner.
I'm watching you hurt.
And it's hurting me.
I'm honest with myself.
I don't want you to go.
Yes it sounds selfish.
But I can see you've given up.
There are other ways.
I won't keep you here for me.
I just see a golden ticket to where you don't want to be.
I will try once more to make you see.
But please remember,
I will not be here when it all fails.

I can make you see the mistake. But do I want to?
