Can we stay together
forever and a day?
You are the only woman
I ever need
I know I have
so very much to repay
Maybe someday
your trust I'll regain
Can we stay together
forever and a day?
Grow old and more,
but never apart
Knowing each other
in the deepest way
Never again will I
ever let myself stray
Can we stay together
forever and a day?
Move on from the past
with each other we'll stay?
Can we stay together
forever and a day?

I liked this Paul! The repetitive language was hypnotic and really helped bring forth that feeling of longing as the narrator begging his lover not to leave him. Beautifully written!
This is mesmerizing and completely sweet! I love every word and the sentiment throughout, Paul. 👏👏👏💗
Oh I love love love this 🥰 The flow and rhyme is spot on…. I was smiling from my heart from the first “forever and a day”. This is going into the TS nominations 🥰
Oh I loved this so much! The rhyme the emotion 💕
Paul, this is incredibly moving and sweet. The picture you chose is perfect for this poem of love and hope. Bravo! 💕🙂
Awww, I loved your comments with Ruth more than your poem! It's a sweet poem but you guys are sweeter!
Nice poem!
A bit rhyme-y.....😘❤️👍
With such admiring respect and abject apologies, I should hope together and a day is reachable.
