Stay

The voice of my eyes Speaks silent words A language to be heard What does it say? Oh baby, it’s telling you Telling you to stay The voice of my heart Thundering through my chest As your head lies on my breast Oh baby, what does it say? It’s telling you Telling you to stay The voice of my body These words my arms speak As I melt and go weak In the heat of your night In the cool of your day What, oh what does it say? Baby, oh baby It’s begging you, Asking you It’s telling you to stay Stay… Let your doubts stop turning Give in to this burning Forget what’s wrong or right And stay with me tonight Stay just a little longer You’ll leave a little stronger Stay inside my fantasy And feed on my ecstasy Be naked heart and soul Lose control and be made whole Let caged desires free Let wantonness just...BE Oh taste and touch and feel, Every wish in me come real Oh baby, what do you say? Let the world just melt away To your paradise, I'm the way Oh baby...right now...TODAY Just PLEASE ~*~ STAY ~*~ Eileen Manassian Ghali

Another top 7 rating for you, Eileen! Not just for an excellent and passionate write, but also for a reversal in roles. Usually I meet the authoress pleading for assurance...this time she is the reassuring one. [Manassian is very poetic-sounding] // paul

Thanks, Tim....Is there more to life than passion? Passion is more than just sexual fulfillment....There is passion for LIFE...for BEAUTY...and LOVE.

Hey, I see you changed your name on here to the Manassian Syrup and pancakes!:) WOW! I made a comment about your name somewhere on here and I know I must have butchered the spelling! NOW, I am going to read your poem. Be Back soon:)

Yes....it's a long story. My Mama believed in my writing abilities. She wanted me to sign my maiden name on anything I write. In honor of her memory, and also to show my Armenian roots...I'm using my maiden name now. If it is like syrup...all the better. Thanks for your effusive praise.
