“To Stay Together” by J William Meek

As the earth shines its heavenly gift of life to us,

I find it quite hard not to look at it and wonder, why are some of us so tough?

Is it because when they were growing up they were treated so rough?

Or is it the opposite, were they good as a kid?

 

Now as a teenager I wish I could understand what aging will do, is doing, and did.

We grow and grow and grow, forgetting the past over time and yet still in our right minds There lies the bonds between people our minds remember, that if we wish to be safe, those people we must stay with, together.

 

May god, or whoever is up there let us know when they’ll go

But for now my love, we may cuddle in the snow although vicious and cold,

Wet and uncomfortable for our bodies to lie

We’re together and our love is too bold to ever give into the cold and die.

 

And we can only wish that everything we love lasts forever.

Let us remember, that if we wish to be safe,

those people we must stay with, together.
