Stay
Oh how I hate to leave
To go back to my reality
I wish I could stay
To enjoy a brief eternity
If I could, I might
I just may stay a little longer
But what permits me to such bliss?
I hate to admit
That I do not wish
To ever leave
I wish forever could last
Infinitely
While I pause
To taste
Life’s mellow bittersweet delights
Sunny beams pierce my skin
And I think for the moment
That life is good
I will not lay low and hide behind shadows
I will emerge from the murky waters
Of life’s ugly curses
I rejoice and smile
For I have so much to give
