Don’t go
Please stay
You have always been my only hope
If you leave, I’ll have nothing to hold on to
Can you promise me to live forever
I cannot imagine a life that you are not in
It is not easy for me, I promise you,
To look back on the moments when I was still a child
You raised me and I got to watch you grow too
But I just wish you could live forever
Can you promise me to live forever
Do not tell me it’s out of your hand
Just promise me to be here forever, I beg
Promise me to keep your youthful energy
Promise me to always be there for me, my backbone, the wall on which I lean
I need you here
I cannot do life without you
You are my everything
We’ve had our disagreements and arguments
And I have said things in time of anger
But not a single word did I mean
Please stay
Please stay with me
Please stay hopeful
Please stay
How dare time fly
Now you have aged
I cannot watch you in pain, living in your bed
All you do is sleep
You are here, but, at the same time, not
Who will I go to now
Who will I lean on now
No one
No one will accept me like you
No one will get my humor like you
No one will love me so unconditionally and willingly like you
No one will push me to my potential like you
No one will care for me like you
No one will want me like you
Just please don’t go
Promise me to always laugh
Promise me to always be here to comfort me
Promise me to give me all the advice I need to live life
Promise me to never age, never be too tired to say my name or greet me
Promise me to never hopelessly cry
Promise me to never give up; always try
Promise me that you will pray to stay, for me
Promise me to never let go
If one has to go, let it be me
For I cannot live a life without you
