Just a minute...Please

I just want to take a minute to cry,
  stop time from flowing by.
   *time to be sad or mad
   *time to feel or NOT feel
   *time to yell or sit in silence

I just want to take a minute to hold you,
  and drive away the blue.
   *drive away the ache of missing you
   *drive away the heaviness of "Life"
   *drive away the noise of the outside world

I just want to take a minute to rest
  and to sit with your head on my chest.
   *to sit close to you
   *to sit quietly
   *to sit and do nothing together

I just want to take a minute to live,
   to BREATHE you in, you have so much to give.
   *BREATHE in ...you are my BREATH
   *BREATHE in your calm
   *BREATHE in your spirit energy

I just want to take a minute to soak up,
  absorb it all in ...empty your cup.
   *absorb your worry
   *absorb your tears
   *absorb your pain

I just want to take a minute to cry...
  stop time from flowing by.
