stay a while

By tequila sunrise

Topics: Poetry Source: AllPoetry Original source

You slipped from my arms, I knew you had to go Such a heavy heart, who could hope to hold And I know where you're going, and thats the hardest part No matter where tonight ends, you wont escape your broken heart Stay a while Helpless for the words, and it tightens up the air Its not what you deserve, its not for lack of care Inside of me is screaming out, Im praying for my prayers Distracting and unworthy of each and every burning tear Seems insincere Do I see God in all of this, maybe all along Its just that were so small, and simply not as strong Strong like wings of silver, and feathers made of gold To carry heavy hearts, to cover all our helpless souls To cover all of us Under wings of Gold and Silver sometimes we have to hide For shelter from this bitter winter at least tonight If it were mine to give Id give you your own time Turn it back or forward whatever you decide Written February 6th, 2002 © on Feb 05 2002 03:21 PM PST   0 • 10
