Leave me be

Toughest suit of armour, high and strong is the fence
That I build around my heart
Arduous struggles, uphill battles, fights very intense
None can take my defence apart

Who’d have thought, it is not the hardest that cuts through the mettle
But the gentlest kind, that shakes the ground beneath
One sweet smile, one loving glance and one kind word cause to unsettle
That warm embrace with his arms around takes away the breath

The suit of armour crumbles down, the solid fence melts to ash
I stand naked and exposed, trying in vain to stop the breakage
Wish we’d been strangers, arrows pierce through the bones tearing the flesh
Unconditionally, I surrender my entirety as you take me hostage

When we share, you are kind. You heal and comfort beyond compare
It hurts deep inside, pain seeps through every cell when you are not returned
O love! you leave me be. Shattered pieces of my broken soul everywhere
I want to go back to my cocoon please, until the remnants of me, disintegrated

Thinking of You

Stars, shining down the dark, silent sky, the cold breeze whispering with the trees
Looking outside, feels as if I am the only one awake when the whole world is asleep
I can’t stop thinking of you; I don’t remember when did I drift off
But for sure I can tell the last thing I remember is – I was talking to you

I wake up in middle of the night out of a bad dream
Panting and trembling, I can listen to my heartbeat
cuddling the pillows beside, I wish you were here to hold me tight and make me sleep
Weary and lonely, I try to fall asleep fighting with you for not being with me

Breaking the dark, the sun rises slowly from the horizon
Eyes are closed but I am awake. I start my day wishing you –
A beautiful day ahead. Everything is so mechanical
but every moment I feel your presence around me in everything I do

You are my strength, nothing to worry about with you beside me
you are my weakness and it feels good too
I never try to escape from your thoughts, because I know I will fail
every time I want to see you, I look nowhere, but my heart
