Take It All


If you are going
To leave and take with you
My light, my safety
In the dark, my carefree
Smiles and my pure laughter,
Don’t let that be
All that you ever take.

Please, I am begging you,
Take your fingerprints,
Take your memories,
Songs, photos, films.
But above all else take
With you, the possibility
Of your return.

Because I have felt a lot
Of things but I cannot
Possibly imagine
The pain and the emptiness
That my soul would endure
If I had to watch you
Walk away twice.
