Can't stay
Heart aching
Invitation to communication
Your warmth against me a new relaxation
The break down,
Stakes it's claim on me,
Felt so weak I couldn't feel,

Warms after winter,
With a shiver and shake,
Laying naked...awake,
My eyes on the nape
Of your neck as you slept
Every breath held the depth of a lake

I stay...
Mouth, more agape
Brain a cage no animal escapes
All these words in my mind

I still can't find the right words to say,
Can't we just lay around another day?
I know you can't stay
But I won't let the memories fade,
And I would trade all the sun for the shade,
If only one more night were made.
