Love, Pain & Me

a love letter in a hopeless place

Stay here
Stay beside me

When the road is long
The drive is hard
The feeling is desolate
When the sky turns grey
And inbetween
The million blinding lights
I have forgotten my way
Guide me
To you
To your heart
To your peace

When I'm hurt
When my heart is blue
When I feel nothing
And it starts to consume me
Stay here
Stay beside me

Give me a kiss
Don't turn your back
Don't let me see you leave
Don't let me
Beg on my knees
When all hope is lost
This love might be
Everything I'll ever need
So stay here
Stay beside me

When I can't give a reason
When the pain is terminal
Don't let me cry
And if I don't stop
Don't lose your cool
And this isn't me
"Asking for too much"
This is a man
Lost to love and it's lust
Lost to companionship
Lost to it's pain
Time and again turned to dust
So when the moment feels like
It might be too much
And when you feel loving me
Might be a little difficult
Remember my words
Just stay
All you ever have to do
Is just stay

- for those who just want a candle in the dark, a hand to hold and a shoulder to lean on.
With Love,
Karan.
