Stay

I don't wish to die here and be buried in sin,
but trialed and tested in my own home,
on my own earthen land.


I don't wish to stay here where it is filled with decay,
because what is a memory must never come,
to haunt and frighten the few who believe them.


I don't wish to be in love for it is poison,
and poison is made to rot
those who dare be tempted.


I don't wish to sing praises of legends,
yet those legends still guide me
though guidance is filled with torment.


Yet I stay, not for love or death
legends nor decay,
but because a heart is held with fire
and the fire will keep warm.
