Stay

stay, even if only to give me time..
help me remember all that is good in me
hold my hand and let me feel your care.
don't let me stray too far from you.

stay, even if you really don't want to
give me time to look at you again
let me drown in your memory
where I can be with you for all eternity

stay, even if to set me free
let me speak of your name,
carrying it to the heavens
along with me last breath

stay, even if only to hold you long enough,
to wander in your arms
and fall uncaringly to ecstasy
like a baby lost in sleep

stay, if only for a moment
a moment and not much more
all I ask is that you remember
that I have loved you...
