Stay back for a while with me

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

Just one time, oh this one last time.
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.

-Sydney B. Monteiro
