Stay

As people passed by, 
footsteps lift to far away 
from less cared strangers 

from this diff'rent place 
I've seen a piece of heaven 
where I choose to stay. 

As solitude smiles, 
I sit in this friendless day 
empty words to say. 

Common walks went by,
 'til you came and perch with me 
a fond drifter's stare. 

With such tender smiles 
vouch a friendly company 
braced me to get by

gazeless stare then dwell 
mirthful song to us befall 
like a timeless chime. 

Bliss of sunset came 
fallin' to this paradise 
our stay's near goodbye. 

As our ways depart 
this li'l sweet memory lasts 
a promise to stay.

Very melancholy but has an almost longing feel, and is very true. Good job and your poetry is very nice. You should definitely keep writing from your heart. :) Very very unique!!! :)

You're welcome!
Nicely done! One note, though: I think it should just be people pass, not people passes. I've never heard Awake, but I love Your Call buy Secondhand Serenade!

it wasn't but it may partly talks about you if you had an experience of someone leaving you

This is one of my favourites of yours, the language you use is really what i like most.
'Timeless chime', 'fond', It's very crafted and delicate and hugely effective. Another example would be sitting 'In' a friendless day, it's very charming.
