A Tango
You’re like a coffee that sends a buzz
Exhilirating;
a kind of rush

As I take a sip,
I remember the time how you kept me awake
Oh, that steamy night with hot kisses…
Mmmmmm..
like this freshly brewed coffee I have in hand

All day I could savor
the aroma and flavor
I love how it taste
Just like how I tasted you


**But like a coffee stain, you leave a mark
You left a spot here in my heart

Strength is a seed
that resides in the soul.
It is nurtured
by lifetimes of endurance.

                *I can hear someone’s footsteps

Lingering around my frozen body
                        
                 Would you please help me…


I know this is just a dream
With melodic tune
Enchanting me to stay asleep
Uttering to relish this reverie
And never wake up…

                    He caught me easily

Trapped in this delusion

               His beauty overwhelmed me


A dream that seems so real
That I’d choose to stay asleep,
A dream that’s so wonderful
That I’d let him drown me with his charm,
A dream that lured me…

             I’d trade my reality,

Light over darkness

                      Convenience over danger


This dream is overruling
Offering every goods I wish to possess
Persuading that I wouldn't want to wake up
I’d lose him or I’d lose myself is the only option he gave
And I’m paralyzed, and throttled, unable to make a decision


Wake me up

Before I'd surrender my last heart beat
Yes, I’m panting, hardly gasping
Begging for air, I need to breathe
To think clearly that he's just a fantasy,
A fallacy that I can’t live within eternally...

                 I’m sinking in this sweet perfection

Slowly taking me to somewhere

          So dark and cold and mysteriously captivating…


Yes I wanted to come,
I can see him in the dark, grinning
So strange I’m not afraid, not a bit
Enjoying the pleasure of being half dead,
The comfort of serenity is undeniably alluring


                 Yet.... half dead means I'm still half alive,

Aware of the truth

                     That he’d never become real


I know.... this is just a dream
With melodic tune
Enchanting me to stay asleep
Uttering to relish this reverie
And never wake up…

                     ....but I can hear someone’s footsteps, a hope

Lingering around my frozen body

                 Would you please help me…



I wanted to wake up.
please wake me up
