I was drunk when I wrote this
So don't judge me when you read this
You probably didn't notice
But when it comes to love am a novice
Am no Casanova
Am not the kind of boy girls drool over
You loved me all the same
My restless heart only you could tame
An atheist wanted proof,
He wanted to see the creator,
That is simple,
Look directly at the sun for some time,
He could not,
My eyes hurt he said.
If it is impossible  for you to see his creation for a few minutes,
How will you be able to see HIM.

Before I met you I was dead inside like a mummy lying in its tomb
But you make me feel alive, brand new like a baby from a womb
Or a butterfly escaping it's cocoon
You give me hope, am like a flower about to bloom
Basking here in the warm glow of your love my heavy heart becomes light like a balloon
Suddenly I feel like I could float to the moon
Once again am carefree like a child watching cartoons
How am I supposed to go along
If in this place I don't belong

Am jumping off a cliff and hoping that before I hit the ground I'll learn to fly
Am avoiding airports, I love planes but I just hate saying goodbye
Am trying to stay awake, I love sleep but I fear the nightmares
Am hoping the sun won't come up because the light will expose all my flaws
Am wearing all the newest clothes but inside am hollow and plastic like a mannequin
Am trying to bring back that smile and sunshine I had before it turned sour
Am working to be the angel I once was before I fell from glory

If love is a drug, is it possible to overdose?
Fill the cup till it overflows
Fill the river till it breaks the banks
Muiruri gathairu Feb 2020
It started with a spark but every time you kiss me, you feed the flame
If I lose myself tonight you're to blame
