Analysis of Stay Close To Me



breathless
pant into the leaves
through the somber tender moment my heart permeates an escape
we have come to far not to turn around now
whispers
through the corridor
a hopeful memory of a time well spent in thought
my lips quiver through the notion of a mere solace intact
sullen brevity

stay close to me
feel the breeze nestled through the trees
my hands clasp with amazing fortitude
alone in my silence
thoughts of beautiful cadence
the exploits of a promise made so long ago
feelings of rapture now lifting my gait
pause to reflect

another moment to another memory
wandering in the silence
embark on Summer's end
the shadows block my inner frame
not having you in my arms is driving me insane
alone again this time I stare at the wall
in the back of my mind i here my concious call
the pull the tease of a romance gone wild
feeling as carefree as a little child
snap shot moments of my past
having so much fun with a hope that it would last

the twilight sun had tainted my inner vision
stay close to me with a touch so devine
draw ever nearer to the fire my my inflicted frame
love is the mere essence of quaint elegance
yet inside we hide behing four walls that block
we tend to always think a lot
tender moments between a father and a son
love works in many hearts
stay close to me & i won't leave
for I beg you on my knees
to enter the final climax with a smile
cause you knew all the great while
eyes, hands & feet
with a sincere faith in your heart
you will light the inner spark to what it is I have been waiting for
