Stay Awhile

Please dear, stay awhile.

Stay while I untangle my stomach from yours,

You seem to have taken it with you.

While we are at it, can I have my smile back?
I do enjoy having a full set of emotions,

And you seem to have found yours,

It is making me miss mine so.

 

Please dear, stay awhile,

Maybe we can talk like we used to,

You can trace and decipher the lines in my hand,

I won’t even yell at you when you tell me my life will be short.

I truly wish to laugh again.

 

Stay,

You may never know,

But I sincerely miss you so

Oh, so sweet and simple... but strong and honest. Made me yearn for that void the person in the poem is missing. Making me want to stay awhile, just to hold your hand =)

"stomach"... curious, but quite effective... insightful... "full set of emotions"

[Boldpen]

It was a pretty good poem. Sad but very beautifully created.
Words were wonderfully painting a whole picture of writer's heart scenario.
Really, Very nice job and fantastically written.
