Don’t leave Eli, stay
we’ve been together so long,
embraced every hurdle
singing a common song.
Don’t leave Eli, stay.
Agreed, I laid the rules
enforced them on you,
but honey, you were the most precious amongst my panoply of jewels.
Don’t leave Eli,stay
Shared my entire purse
yet you continued to pound
but never did I allow matters to get worse.
Don’t leave Eli, stay
People came in and I know it caused you pain.
Father, May be our last hope
else it’s Brexit all over again.
– Aks

Sometimes a comment is so so so beautiful that you take time to respond to it, because you’re determined enough to make an equally pleasing reply! Haha π This is what just happened with me!!
