Stay Poem by Virginia Jasmin Pasalo

Oh, everlasting travelling moon
where will you go?
will you bring a message
of my love
across the ocean?

better still,
take my heart

before you go,
will you sit beside me?
will you speak to me?

don't leave me now
i don't want to let you go now
till you speak to me

promise me
you will come back
bearing a message
of his love
or carry his heart
to me

go now
but not just yet
how will i live without you now
my life is dark till your return
so please just for a minute now
before i let you go
stay.
