Why is that even a discussion?

I’d give anything
for just one more
day.
To listen to you
tell me,
“Steph it’s going to

everywhere,
in everything I do.
A moment or memory,
it all...

Friends..
Take us just as we are;
The rough and the smooth.
Accepted and loved.
With nothing to prove.

Friends..
Gather together in twos, threes or fours.
Uplifting each...

hanging from me name even.
There’s no love sounded in Stephen.
So be dog wide when you say it laddie
or a knuckle sandwich is your due.
