Running away from his destiny
Taking a breath
Looking for an eternity
Afraid of life and its bitter faith
Carrying a heavy body.
Running to death
Yearning for a moment of security
Out of breath
Running away from his destiny
Throwing a sight
Need to know the sun and its light
The earth and its perpetual fight.
All lead to a the same site
Left is getting right
Fight becomes a human right
None of us will run away from
That gloomy night.
Love is to  love
           and be loved.
A one side love
            Is a shame
  If not a crime
          A heart that doesn't love            
Is like a dead dove
             Still maintaining its feathers
  But useless for fly
A heart that doesn't share emotions
              Is a dead heart
Don't expect an answer
For their questions
Be the answer
For your own question.
If you know how to question
Your heart is the best answer.
Yesterday's answer
Is today's biggest question.
Behind every tear
There is a story.
Tears of joy and sadness
might lead us to madness.
No need to know why I cry
One day you cry
When and why?
The day you no longer lie.
Don't make of your wife
Your home decor article.
Let her be
Your sun that
Never stops shining.
Be her  moon.
A heart that doesn't love
Is a dead heart.
Love is not a word to say
Or a game to play.
Love is you and I
We love all
That's my heart's call.
Life is  a long journey
Each day is a new day.
One day for you
The other day is against you.
One day you enjoy the sun
And make fun.
The other day
You cry alone,
Nothing can be done.
Our journey is made up of days
Each day
We witness the birth of a new play.

I just want it to end.

The hopelessness, the fear,
the constant critic in my head:
I've lived with them all for too long.

All I've ever known is this war, this endless battle.
There's nothing wrong with wanting it to end.
To wish that it didn't is cruel.

But why can't the best solution be the simplest?
Why do I have to keep fighting?

At times it's deafening,
and I'm so exhausted.

Why can't I just lay down in no man's land
and let this battle fall silent around me?

Why can't that be the end?

Because... I'll never know what's possible.
