This is another one of my poems I pulled out of the archives recently. Written back on April 2nd, 1984 (what a good year!) and it has a few lines I like.
I want you to stay
For the moments that last forever
Like seasons that always change.
Not to change you
But to watch you grow.
Not to hold you
Or to let you go.
It’s too late to cry
Much too long since you went away
Sometimes you just can’t look back.
Don’t need to know why
Something beautiful goes the wrong way
But you can never go back
Not to change you
But to watch you grow.
Not to hold you
Or to let you go.
I want you to stay
For the moments that last forever
Like seasons that always change.
