Stay Right Here

I just wanna stay right here
Can I live on the cusp of this reality
for the rest of my reality?
Can I recycle my breath
and retain these sights for later use?
I don't wanna grow up no more
I take it all back.
Let me just stay right here
In my room on my bed
Staring at the wall
Grasping each second that
passes through my fingers
Trying not to move
Because movement equals
progress and progess equals
Time Lasped
and...
I just wanna stay right here
Laying under you
Letting your weight crush
all doubts and uncertainties about
how we feel for each other
Can you stay right here
Can you never get on that flight
and leave?
Can we stay intertwined in each other
Let time stop like a traffic jam
All around us
Let this moment expand until it goes
all around the world and comes back twice
Kissing you with a new found appreciation
cause our time has come
And we both realized it
was too short
Can I just stay right here
sitting on my sisters bed.
Laughing like only we can
Or fighting like only we can
Can each laugh hit notes
in the universe that allow the
God of time to make it stop
just for the rest of my little life
Can I just remind her of an inside joke
that sends us in a secret frenzy
only for eternity?
Can I just stay right here?
Can my tears take years to drop
So that I appreciate every salty
particle they contain?
Maybe if i write this poem
long enough it
can immortalize
and account for
every seconds that's past?
Can I just stay right here?
Cause life just moves too fast...
