Be.

if I uttered a word that crossed the line,

or touched your hand at a wrong place and time,

if I called your name unaware in a crowd,

or lingered on the moment a moment too long...

Do still be.

You had said you would.

if I had to go, and never returned
or breathed beside; yet light years far,
if I left you too, and left it all
and set my sails to find my soul...

Do still be.

You had said you would.
