Living and Loving
I too;need love
all these years of pretence
see;the inside of me is not pretty
I too; need love
look beyond the smiles on my face
my heart is riddled with cracks
cracks which require love to get get healed
I too;need love
don't wait till I die
Or jump into the lagoon
before you show me love
I need love now
My bones might appear strong
But my heart needs love to be strong.
