Stay With Me

Stay with me-
        If only for an extra minute.
For the morning sun is
rising in the east,
and as we yawn and 
             stretch our arms in morning glory, 
may we start our day in harmony.

Drinking coffee at a table set
                for only two-
Laughing and speaking words 
of wisdom.
      Believing in each other as 
all lovers should.

I needed you in my youth, 
                now twenty-one years later,
I need you to age with-
We deserve all things that a day
      of hope can bring.

Now I shall be free-
You bring me delicate touches
           in the morning and holding onto 
you seems all I wish to do for…
the rest of my life.  

Stay with me-
        If only for an extra minute...
