Some Have Come to Stay

Some Have Come to Stay

And when I deeply know that I am yours
And all the world can come and go at will
And nothing on the planet reassures
Your soft aroma drifts toward me still.

Eons of time have gently come and gone
And ravaged lovers all along the way
The fainting heart will tremble off and on
But some of us have truly come to stay

And so across the miles and years of time
I pen these words to softly stir your heart
If limited to feeble words of rhyme
Dependent on the meager poet’s art

I’m like the lovely drops of falling rain
And kissing you until we meet again.
