Giving All

I would give it all away
  the collector's display of valuables untouched
if only you would stay.

The shadows take hold
  and as your eyes close
I know you have to go.

If I prayed and pleaded
 would God change his mind
leaving you just as I want and needed.

Life is such an unknown struggle
 where we tread in wonder and caution
to let love come and go untroubled.

I would give it all away
 don't say goodbye,
just one more day, stay.
