LOVE STAYS

I pray it stays.
And understand
The rough edges
That comes with being loved.
I pray it stays.

To last until the nighttime
Filled with laughter and understanding.
I pray it stays strong.
When the reality of life
Comes knocking at your door.

When love fades out of your eyes
I pray it stays.
Weathering the storms
Calming the days of stormy events
When the billows come boiling high

I pray it stays
Till the nighttime of our lives
Long enough till old age
Long enough to come to fulfillment
