Stay
Stay.
And I don't just mean until your hands are full
I don't mean until the rain stops and you can finally head home
I mean to stay.
When the tears fill my eyes
And my thoughts are too wild to comprehend
When boredom strikes and I'm no longer the toy you wish to play with
Don't throw me in a toy chest
Place me above your heart
And keep me there
I'm begging you,
please stay.
