Stay

Come near do not take your gaze from mine
            The heavens have nothing on the stars of your eys
                                                         If you're willing take my hand. let our destinies entwine
                                                        If not then fear not for your company will grant me respite
                                                                A reprieve from the death of love unachieved
                                                                The loss of my heart to an unassuming thief
                                                           To be deprived of mourning causes even greater grief
                                                            So stay even if to leave if best as you may believe
                                                            Stay so your presence will shatter my deluded heart
                                                         Stay so your presence will not be granted a deserters part
                                                           Stay so that when I heal. my heart will be built anew
                                                              Stay so that when your heart is given to another
                                                        I'll be devoid of envy and my happiness for you will be true
