Stay

Don’t let go just yet
Just keep holding on
Breathe into this moment
Too soon, it will be gone
There were things I took for granted
When forever was assured
That forever is even possible
Is one of which I’m cured
Stay here with me a minute
Let’s stretch it to an hour
Even endings that we choose
Still strip us of our power
We cannot change another
We can only draw our lines
And hope we draw the right ones
Because we can’t go back in time
We can love with all our being
We can try with all our might
But for now, just sit here with me
As if this is our last night.
