Will you just Stay?
Even when the path ahead looks a little bleak
Even when we have a fight, say you’ll still speak
Speak to my heart with your words, my soul with your passion, and speak to my mind with your own
Promise me you’re here to Stay and you won’t ever leave me alone
Even if I snore sometimes, or pass gas in my sleep
Even when I’m moody and sound angry when I speak
Even when I get sick and need you to Stay with me
Even when I’ve lost myself, help me to get back to our beat
When I yell for no rhyme or reason, just hold me close to soothe my soul
All I really want to know is if you’ll be with me through the cold
When I cry myself to sleep some nights, don’t turn the other way
Wrap your arms around me to take the pain away
When our children get here and sometimes we disagree,
Tell me it’s not about you or me, we’ve got to do what’s best for our family
When the world is against me, please Stay by my side
Remind me that you’re not leaving, and you’re here to ride or die
When we’re old and gray and wrinkly too
Say you’ll still love me the way that I love you.

That was from the heart ! I pause on the part “When I yell for no rhyme or reason, just hold me close to soothe my soul” I thought about some folks from my past . Great poem!
