Be Thy Valentine For a Little While

Please stay a little while longer,
Hold me closer if only for a while,
Cry if you want I give you my shoulder,
Be Thy Valentine For  A Little While,

Let’s sit and gaze at the moon,
While we cuddle after a moments smile,
Feel every spasm so sudden so soon,
Be Thy Valentine For  A Little While,

I have the answer to your every wish,
Be it a kiss, love, put them in a pile,
Let’s live this moment even if in a notion,
Be Thy Valentine For  A Little While,

Feel my heavy breathing down your neck,
As I explore the pleasure not found in a smile,
So pure is love, am unable to find in a speck,
Be Thy Valentine For  A Little While,

Let’s overdose on insomnia and forget about sleep,
As we loose ourselves in quality time for just a mile,
If you be the shepherd am no less a sheep,
Be Thy Valentine For  A Little While,

If you leave I pray don’t say goodbye,
Sadness would drive me to faint and I won’t revive on salvolitile,
Just tell me you’ll be back even if it’s a lie,
Be Thy Valentine For  A Little While

Just tell me you'll be back even if it's a lie... The last stanza was inspired by my girlfriend, she always tells me to tell her ill be back even if its a lie. She hates goodbyes.

Just wondering are the commas necessary? But I like the poem.
