The Stranger I Love

I wander in your love
and wonder whether I'm loved
Your words are like thunder
with a sound so deafening
I couldn't truly decipher
Like a rain that drown me
To the flood of nowhere

Your embrace is cold as cadaver
Your caress is like an insensitive zombie
Your heartbeat is coated with lethargy
like a sleeping lifeless mummy

At the back of my innocent mind
A mysterious thought haunts me
Whether you love me for what I have
And never for who and what I am
Fear voraciously devouring me
Trembling that one day I will wake up
And see you as a total stranger to me.
