Stay with me?

by Molly Elizabeth   May 3, 2007


Strip me of all the love you've given
every laugh we've shared
every tear we've cried.
Devour me with disregard
Induldge me in your heartache.
Give me your pain.
Make me nothing.

You have made me all that I am today.
All the good in my life I've experienced
is you, and our memories.
Both the beautiful, and the ugly.
Take away all you've made me
I am only naked and bare
scared, and alone.
At the mercy of others
who have fallen astray before me.

So darling,
I ask you whole heartidly today,
with disregard to the future, past, present
and all consequences.
Please just hold me in your strong, steady embrace.
Help pick me up when I fall...
Stay with me?
Love me for always?
Please, don't ever leave.

    Beautifully penned poem, it flowed nicely, I can feel that you really love the guy whom you dedicated this poem to, well done.

    Just a suggestion:
    Help pick me up when I fall...
    -Help me stand up when I fall...
    Or..
    Please pick me up when I fall...
    ^^Maybe it's just me xD

    5/5!

    Okay...
    Maybe I am a bit perveted.
    But I was completely drawn
    To the two first words
    In your poem.
    Strip me...
    It made me want to read the rest.
    But still, the poem wasn't about sex.
    It was about asking your lover
    To stay with you forever.
    I thought it was really sweet...
    I wish I could give you some other feedback
    Other than that.
    But I think this poem is just beautiful.
    I don't want it to be changed :]
    Five out of five, m'dear:p
