I Can't Keep You, But I Want You To Stay

It’s frustrating when you’re always told about those magic words yet his actions do not justify them.

It’s confusing when you feel his actions mean something yet he does not say anything.

Between the two, as of the moment, I choose the latter.

Don’t say anything. At least not yet.

However, don’t go anywhere. Just stay with me.

I don’t want to see you with somebody else but I cannot commit myself yet to you.

I want us to just take our time getting to know each other.

Let’s be special friends.

No expectations. No obligations.

Let’s just spend a lot of time together.

And let’s spend these times together happily.

Then, let’s just see where we go from here.

Keep on talking to me, keep on making me laugh, keep on cheering me up.

What I’m really trying to say is that stay just the way you are.

It’s enough already that you’re here by my side.

I’ll also try to brighten up your every day.

Honestly, I don’t see yet forever with you.

I’m still confident that should things get too tough for us, I can still easily let go.

But as of the moment, you’re the one that matters most to me.

Maybe my feelings for you are not yet that deep but still, they’re feelings.

That’s why I ask you to just stay with me, patiently.

My heart had been through to a lot of sad, sad things and now,

It seems difficult to penetrate it once again.

But you can make my heart tremble.

You can make my heart beat fast.

You can make my heart forget those many things that broke it.

And now, gradually, a little bit terrified, you make my heart believe again

That something wonderful can still happen.

You make my heart smile.

Someday, if ever that day will come for us,

 When I tell you that I’m all yours, believe that.

I will live just for you.
