I Have Never Been In Love
I have never been in love
Just felt its shadow
Swaying in the moving sky
Its breath falling upon my neck
Lulling me into a false sense of security
All logic whittles down and dies
My little existence
Erupts such sorry anthems
From so many a replayed song
Habitual in their echoes
My body shifts restfully
As life reigns still strong
Downstairs life is flat line
Held down by routine
Limp bodies strive to get through
We feel drained
Too scared to glance a positive sun
Until the rain told me to look for you
