Don’t go
Don’t leave me
Don’t leave me in this battle by myself

Fight with me
Fight for us
Let our love live

Don’t let me fall to my knees
Don’t swing that sword love

Raise my shield but don’t use it to shield form me
Grab my hand but don’t let go

Don’t send me out only to never return
Support me but don’t sabotage me

Give me life love
For I’m only from a world of death

Raise me up when I’m struck
Don’t push me down
Kiss me but don’t poison me

Save me love
For this battle is almost lost

The author's comments:
I wrote this poem one day when I was filled with sadness. This sadness was from all the ones I have ever loved that left. I put what one may feel when you know the one you love is running away from you.
