Please Stay

Please stay Don't go I beg, I pray Sit with me awhile I want to see your smile Your brown eyes do not lie I cannot bare goodbye Windows to your sorrow Eyes glisten I listen Your pain Brings tears What did she gain By breaking your heart? My love is a new start I will be everything for you I'll paint your blues In blushing pastel sunsets Love's glow Don't go By: Rhonda Johnson-Saunders, February 13, 2012 Another one inspired by Erich J.

Reads like a "rebound" poem to me. I could be wrong though. Interesting pattern, I save all the fancy schemes to you all. I write, and what comes out, is exactly what the poem is gonna say!

Definitely the rebound. This lass is taking advantage of a man with a broken heart, striking while the iron is hot! The form is new for me. I like to try new things. I journal freely for myself...
