PLEASE DON'T GO

Please don't go.
Stay in my life, please.
You mean so much to me,
You can't simply leave.

For what will I do,
If you're no longer there?
Who'll brighten the darkness,
Verging on despair?

Whose eyes will give comfort,
The way that yours do?
What hope will my love have,
If there is no you?

Whose presence will touch me,
The way I feel yours?
A deep wound will open,
If you close the doors.

Who else could fill the void,
With all that you mean?
Don't leave me with the pain,
Of a final scene.
