Love, life, and in between
I live, I love, and I love to live
 But what’s love? What’s life?
 I am motored by these boggling questions
 They seem to drive me into a ditch
 In the middle of a deserted desert
 Pitch-black skies and prickly cactus
 The sands of time surround me
 I can’t stand it 
 so I sit and wonder
 yet all I see is you
 as if I love you so
 but no, I don’t
 well, at least I don’t think so
 
 I laugh, I smile
 Whenever I laugh, I smile
 In an instant, I remember us
 Mounted on the wall of memory
 Is that moonlight dance
 No music, no dancing skills, yet 
 Our shuffling feet,
 tripping over cracks embedded
 led me into your arms again
 
 I jump, I drown
 i jump into waters deep
 and drown, submerged in tears
 fears run rampant through my bloodstream
 pulsing heartbeat, like a hammer 
 i stammer beyond my control
 i roll in tune with the waves ashore
 and keep on swimming until i hit the rocks
 
 i wake up, i take off
 and shoot towards the moon
 and swoon at the sight of stars
 glittering lights, flitting fireflies
 i float back to earth, with my eyes shining
 i feel the wet paint of the past
 on my skin, on each chamber of my heart
 who do i love at the end of the day?
 a difficult question when the day has barely started...
