Will You Stay?

Are you here to stay?
Or should I sit and pray
For you to be there
Somehow that doesn’t seem fair

If you have to leave
You must, I believe
For what is meant to be
You’ll see, will be

Some things you can’t hold on to
There’s nothing we can do
And as much as I don’t want to
Maybe, it wasn’t meant for me and you

Our beautiful paths have crossed
And as much as I’d hope time paused
The journey ends here
We’ve got to go, I fear

I have always dreaded this day
Goodbye I must say
With the words I used to thank God
“Happy birthday”, I type with a small nod

Goodbye
