"The Weight of your stay"

"The Weight of your stay"

by:

Virgilio F. De leon Jr. MD

I

Listen now

Oh listen now to these words

though I may no longer say them

you keep them and be safe

II

I ask you to dare

to look at the sky and soar

to be up there where you belong

and open up more doors

III

Soon it will go

and all things will fade

Yet try to hold on a little

bring a little in this life

IV

Say what you mean

and mean what you say

keep your promises from yesteryears

and yesterdays

V

So that one day

So when that day comes

Stand and be weighed

worthy oh so worthy of your stay
