I'll be Alright

I'm no one's love story My words spiral back to me My love letter never reach the right address I sing my love poems apologetically As if this piece of broken links that connects me to feelings that are forbidden Isn't even mine to give To others But I borrow time from people To recall the memories that I pray I didn't waste My lifeline is short I already got my heart broken twice Another punch lends itself on my face In the usual fights where I'm beating myself On days I can't bear my own presence I need someone To witness my traumatic episodes of Shaking furiously every time The similar nightmares chase me around I put ice cubes on my tongue And numb my feelings as I swallow My sentences with a smile I am not asking for a love that lasts eternity But hold me for just another second Just read one more line where I distract you With my metaphors I don't want to be lonely with myself tonight...
