Don't leave. Stay.

 


I just want to say

don't leave.

Stay.

Don’t get in your car

and drive away.

Don't leave me

standing alone

watching taillights

fading into the night

through tear misted eyes.

Lifeline glimmer fizzling

as I glance up at the milky way

and say a silent prayer

to any deity

that will lend me their ear.

 

Don't go.

Stay.

You complete

the jigsaw pieces of me.

You put me back together

when all I feel is jumbled up

and scattered in misery.

Don’t go.

Stay.

Let me say all the words

that have been dying on my lips.

Let them eclipse the hurt

that usually conflicts me.

 

I just want to say

don’t leave.

Stay,

Don’t go away.

Just sit by my side

forever and a day.

Let's never part ways

I don’t want to see your back

fading into the distance,

with my trailing words shadowing

just trying to catch up.

 

Don’t go.

Stay.

We can make a happy place

from life’s many broken promises.

I’m not them

and you are not the ones

that made me fall to bits.

We are meant to coexist.

We are the right mix.

We sit together and the universe

does summersault flips

screaming the words on its lips,

saying

don’t leave, stay.

You are where you are supposed to be...

Twin flames burning away

as the embers catch hold and hug closer.

Two lovers wishing on a four-leaf clover.
