Please Just Stay

Can I hold you Embrace you for just one more minute One more second Please... Because as I hold you I can feel all my pain Go down the drain I cannot find the reason why But it all seems like it melts Like the snow on the first day of Spring You make it seem As if all of my agony would go away forever But whenever you leave But then I grieve When the feelings deceive It seems like they have many tricks Up their sleeve Their nasty tricks should just leave But how would you feel When you can’t take the wheel Because you don’t know which feelings are real And if you don't know if you should peel The protective shell That you have fixed into your skin Because other people have put you through hell And at that point you can’t tell Whether they will are nobel Or will they impel All their insecurities Into your mind Knowing their words will bind themselves And restrain you And then later reveal Who they truly are Can we make a deal? That as long as you’re with me I can believe That I can be relieved from the pain That others relinquish I just want the pain to diminish So just stay one more minute, one more second... ~10-5-17~
