Stay

Stay

A Poem by EmaleighLynn
"

A song I wrote at work last night.

"
Calloused fingers, the way your heart beats,
beats,
beats.
Broken window, blood on the sheets,
sheets,
sheets.

The pain of tomorrow
creeps into today.
Your heart is full of sorrow;
why couldn't I stay?

Smoke in the air, clouds in the sky,
sky,
sky.
I'll send you a postcard telling you why,
why,
why.

The pain of tomorrow
creeps into today.
Your heart is full of sorrow;
why couldn't I stay,
stay
stay?

Hair on the pillow, your bright blue eyes,
eyes,
eyes.
Tear on your cheek as I say goodbye,
bye,
bye.
