Dear
Reader
My
next poem is “Stay back for a while with me”
This
poem is about a girl who is in love with this boy, so very madly. But sadly for
her, her love is busy in life’s serious affairs and has no time for her. She
feels alone, lonely and betrayed. But still she tries to work on it.
She
requests him for one last time to stay back with her and spend some time with
her; just with her.
She
complains that the time which otherwise was simply wasted could have been
wasted with her.
She gives
up all hope and says she wants to forget all the great moments they had
together, but alas her heart doesn’t want to forget them. Her eyes and lips are
longing to taste those wonderful moments they had together.
Finally
she wonders if the worst thing has happened. She is scared to ask but still dares
to ask if he is bored and tired with her.
She
requests him for the one last time to stay back and spend some time with her.
Here’s
if, hope you like it.
Stay back for a while with me
Stay back for a while with me.
Never will i invite this grace time again
But this once you bestow upon me
Time otherwise vaguely wasted, by you
Set it aside and live it with me
Even still, you feel like wasting it
Then come along and waste it with me.
Wonderful moments I want to forget
But this heart doesn’t agree with me.
Eyes are searching, lips longing, to
Taste those times you had with me.
I wonder, but am scared to ask,
Are you bored and tired of me?
One last time, just once more will I ask
Stay back for a while with me.
