Onto me, they load and unload All the emotions they picked up on the road, Making me repeat to myself, I am not a harbour. Their anxieties lying all over me That's why, they all leave in glee I tried to manage it's load, repeating I am not a harbour. Near sea, the sun would kiss me. I am still near the sea But the load on me blocking the sunrays Hence I repeat, I am not a harbour. I feel the cracks on myself that no one sees. I wished all the load to be drowned in the sea. Each crack I count, Singing, I am not a harbour. One day, snap, I may, Trying to listen what everyone has to say. I listen and they unload But I m not a harbour.

NOT A HARBOUR
Onto me, they load and unload All the emotions they picked up on the road, Making me repeat to myself, I am not a harbour. Their anxieties lying all over me That's why, they all leave in glee I tried to manage it's load, repeating I am not a harbour. Near sea, the sun would kiss me. I am still near the sea But the load on me blocking the sunrays Hence I repeat, I am not a harbour. I feel the cracks on myself that no one sees. I wished all the load to be drowned in the sea. Each crack I count, Singing, I am not a harbour. One day, snap, I may, Trying to listen what everyone has to say. I listen and they unload But I m not a harbour.
A harbour is a place where ships load and unload. Here, I am a harbour, without wanting to be, and people 'load and unload' their emotions on me.
