ABOUT
THE AUTHOR
I started writing songs and poems about 2 years ago, and I will admit, most of them sucked. After a while, I lost inspiration and had so much going on and just stopped writing. I have finally recently gotten back to writing, and at first, what inspired me was illness and fighting through and I started writing about it. Now I think I'm getting better at writing, and will start posting new ones soon. [September 2010]

Stay Like This Erica Young
Verse 1:
I just want to hold onto you and let go of all else.
I want to stay like this with you forever and just let the world pass us by.
Everyone around us sees what we have and wish it could be theirs.
A love like this seems impossible to find and so many
go through their lives never being able to experience it.
Neither of us imagined a love like this.
You were my greatest dream which I desired every waking moment.
Then we met and the never-ending search was over.
We found each other and all I want is to stay like this with you eternally.
Chorus:
I grew up in fear of being hurt by love.
I never risked falling for someone until you came.
You entered my life and I couldn’t help myself.
I let myself fall and I know I will never regret it.
You reassure me of our true love just by staying with me.
We’ve come so far and come so close.
Because we fell into this dream together,
We have to stay like this together forever.
Verse 2:
You will forever be my life.
And all I want is to be with you.
You opened my eyes to a love so powerful.
A love so powerful, no words can define.
I lived in suffocation until you freed me from these binds.
I parted from all else, so now all I can do is stay with you.
When you were not here, my heart was crying
out for someone to rescue me from this torture.
I’ve always dreamt with my heart, so my greatest dream
For all my life has been to discover my true love.
You made my dream come true.
Now all I need is to stay where we are for eternity.
Chorus
Verse 3:
We can’t let this fade away like so many have.
We must prove them all wrong, and never fall out of love.
Our lives can only grow closer, not further apart.
We won’t risk messing this up.
This relationship will rise and become the dreams of those searching.
Still searching for what we have.
I have become addicted to nothing but you.
All I dream about, all I desire, is to become closer with you.
Just when I begin to think everything between us will stay as it is,
You prove me wrong. Though this is unpredictable,
We will only grow closer while we stay together as one for all of time.
Chorus
All of my prayers and dreams were answered when I met you.
Now this can never come to an end, and you will forever stay here in my arms
