Don't Go
By Maude E.

You were a fresh breath of air,
Welcomed on a chilly morn.
Your warmth and light radiated,
And in me, new energy was being born.

You stayed a while, and lingered so,
Time together was a welcome reprieve.
I couldn't get enough of you,
It killed me to think that you'd leave.

You're becoming distant—you're changing,
Things aren't what they were then.
Stay for just a while longer—I need you,
And if not, promise you'll come back again.
