Every day, I wake up with hope of love
I go to bed with the dream of same.
A care of you or a word of few.
would mean the world and more to me.

My wish ‘for love wasn’t greed or bad
I wanted love to break my shell.
I pushed my passion and desire for one
But the devil in my head kept singing for fun.
The invincible power in me going crazy
made me keep my faith in humanity.

I wanted to breathe, before I die.
I wanted to run, before I fall
I wanted to love, before I break.
But the depth of life was swallowing me alive
And I wished for a hand to pull me back.

All I wished was the love of one
someone to tell me Im doing so great.
To wipe my tears and show me hqpe
to walk the path of light I’ve always searched for.
This feeling of loneliness is killing me
A few sweet words must feel so good.
