For you I shall stay
I wish the stars shine as bright as your eyes
Reflecting the secrets and wonders of the skies
Rarely do I ever want to say goodbye
And hope to never be the reason you cry
When we first met,
I was transported to a utopia far away
Too young to understand why my heart was that way
Thought it would fade, but it grew stronger day by day
An astronaut I shall be when I grow up
Then finally the galaxies won’t seem far away
However, to live with you is the only reason
That would convince me to return and eventually…
Stay
