Don't Go

That old tin can 

You threw your pennies in

Just in case 

You have to run

Those black and white photographs 

Faded and torn

They stay in your heart 

Like the thorn on a rose

No need to worry love 

I'm here with you

This really appeals to me, I find it very relatable in so many ways.
The saving of pennies for a rainy day and the running away, powerful and emotional images.
And the photographs, so hard to look upon sometimes because those old feelings come back.
Really like those last two lines... Very reassuring. Love comes and goes but stays forever...

Thanks so much. Some people always feel like they have to have that backdoor ya know. Just in case. And btw thanks for the extra help on this one.
