It's always good to realize a moment of perfection...
“Stay That Way”
Stay that way
Just the way you are
Exposed
Not just of body
But of soul
Here with me now
In the cold
Till the spring
Back to fall
Stay that way
Your eyes to mine
And the smirk that reads
Sees
Dissecting me
Till you are another phrase
Caught
On the tip of my tongue
And I am but to pen
What my heart cannot say
What my lips cannot feel
But what my dreams will become
In the moment soon
As I am off to sleep
And somehow
You are next to me
Stay that way…
