May 2014
Today I lie homeless,
living empty out of cash,
Today I lie hopeless,
thinking of how long will it last,

Today I taste the feeling of those deprived,
Will it make you want to leave
or would you stay and remain
fighting through my plight,

How deep is your love?

Today our meals came from picking in the trash?
We are starving yet filled from all this pressure,
As a couple we lie in trouble
but as for you, is this make you love me lesser?

Today we areΒ Β bare sheltered in the cold streets,
will you still be happy and watch up over me,
in which ways will you react?
will you still be here or disappear in a flash,

How deep is your love?

Today I've hit rock bottom
dwelling in the depths of poverty
Today all smiles turned solemn
do my downfalls keep you from loving me?

Living through these trialed times,
in which everything has failed to mold,
will you let every piece of fall apart,
or still have me to hold?

Because honestly as of now,
I've hit the peak of my downfall,
Stumbling, down tumbling,
to crumbling giving it my all,

Aside from you ,
I'm shunned away from world of pleasures,
caught up in the mix
trying to get it things back together,

What if we were in absence,
to these moments of bliss,
would I be dismissed,
or in your eyes still exist?

How deep is your love?..
