Stay, hold me
The way trees hold on to the leaves,
Shivering on a stormy night.

The way wind soaks away
The woes of the flowers
Right off their petals.

Stay, let me listen to your breathing
If you can’t seem to find a word,
That is just fine by me.

As your beating heart tells me,
All there is for my heart to know;
A grand gesture of just being there

Stay, just this one night,
In between your breaths,
Is where my safe haven lies

The almost rhythmic
rise and fall of your chest
Lures me into security

Stay, for
I’m longing with nothing there to long for,
Looking, for a place I have never been to.

Because
I have a restlessness in me,
That just can’t be contained.

But there is something in you,
That always
got me to stay.

So this time darling,
Won’t you stay
For me

Cause there is a warmth
Inside of me
That comes only from being loved by you
