O life, don’t give me that again,
It’ll break me, it’ll shatter me
They say time never returns
Then why is my heart clenched in fear
The fear of losing my life, my soul
Will my love drift away from me?
What if history repeats itself?
I am not at ease,
Neither is my heart
There is faith but not without a blanket of fear
A stab of pain in the chest, heartache
A racing pulse, an insecurity of being isolated
Te thought of being alive without a soul
Why did the river of emotions sweep me away?
How did I even dare to risk my heart again?
Whether you are mine or not, I don’t know
All I know is
I an yours and yours till eternity
What name do I give to my feelings?
They overwhelm me all at once, drawing me
Deep in thoughts,
Thoughts that lead to fear
The fear of you going away
They leave my eyes brimming
And heart wincing
Please be by my side
For you are all I need to survive
You are the road and you the destination
A part of me and my inspiration
I cannot even imagine a life without you
What if destinies do us apart?
Or worse, you leave my hand halfway
My heart is a fragile thing, like most hearts are
Take care of it, as if it were your own child
Win me over so
I may trust you blindly
Help me fight this horrid fear and tell me you are mine and mine only
Invade my life like you have invaded my heart
Forever and ever.
Show my eyes the dreams that
They have always seen behind the eyelids
Bring to life, the hibernating love
In the core of my heart
Take my hand and walk me through life without loosening the grip even once
I miss you like the deserts miss the rain
I have no fear when you are with me

Except for the fear of losing you
Is it a premonition or does it actually happen to the lovelorn
I hope this fear hold no meaning
What would I be without you?
A star without fire,
A body without life
Not dead but not alive either
Try measuring the depth of my love
And you will drown, never to come back again
O life! Don’t give me this pain,
I can’t bear it anymore,
At least not again!
