Don't leave

don't disappear ever
don't be like my dreams or the wind
be the sun
here with me while I'm alive
and still shining down through the dirt after I pass

don't disappear
your presence means more
than the promise of endless wealth or immortality

be the light that surrounds my soul wherever it goes
even when it's unsure of its direction

lead me
with you
wherever you go

Beautiful imagery here. This poem wraps around you like the warmth of the sun you speak of. Perhaps it is because we all know that feeling.

[Relic]

I guess it's true that when we find someone that affects us we want to cling to them for fear of losing out on the best thing we ever had.
