I'm not staying here because you wan't me to,
I'm just staying here because I wanted to.
You said I could go away,
but you know I'm gonna stay,
You stole my heart forever and a day.
You stole my heart and threw it in the wind,
about last night ,won't you stay again?
Whats inside you would never say,
you stole my heart forever and a day.
In the rain,standing on the shore,
peace inside like the ocean floor,
I could never turn away,
when ever you would look that way,
you stole my heart forever and a day

This is beautiful.  I really like it.

 MAY THE ROAD RISE TO MEET YOU,
MAY THE WIND BE ALWAYS AT YOUR BACK
MAY THE SUN SHINE UPON YOUR FACE
THE RAINS FALL SOFT UPON YOUR FIELDS
AND, UNTIL WE MEET AGAIN,
MAY GOD HOLD YOU IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND

Irish Blessing

Ah, ye. Thy poem doth its own justice. Good use of rhyme and as the lovely lady just above me has stated - good use of repetition too. Good feeling.
