Stay Poem by Haleh Fonouni

Stay

Rating: 5.0

The world was created
And so was I,

Before I could even take a breath,
Or an exhale of a sigh

How could it be taken for granted
What was given to me,

A life:

In love, in memoriam
Past the disciples
And religious configurations

You must,

Breathe in
and
Breathe out

Witness and
repeat:

You are here
You are near
You are here,
With me.
