I know death calls me so many times, like I owe it too many favours But I won’t answer that call – until much, much later And they might rush you to live your life; but child Don’t you know Death waits for you, with great patience? And all these girls on my feed with curves, all start to feel _So shapeless!_ Love nowadays is so baseless – when you place your faith On beauty; do you know that one day it will all betray you? But when we drift, do our tears dry under the sun of Our daydreams – In place of all our streams; your teeth could still sink in my skin But even those that had a bite of love; are still searching for their Own piece. I miss the sleep of our daydreams when we had the few times To dream, and not going to look for love in sheets – When love was paved on the streets; not these things That belong to THE STREETS! Where we could be dancing in the waves of the sea; Surfing all of your best ideas, when kids dared to dream Never too afraid to swim, when we had each other to pick Us up, whenever we start to sink.                                                 _when we were kids._

when we were kids
I know death calls me so many times, like I owe it too many favours But I won’t answer that call – until much, much later And they might rush you to live your life; but child Don’t you know Death waits for you, with great patience? And all these girls on my feed with curves, all start to feel _So shapeless!_ Love nowadays is so baseless – when you place your faith On beauty; do you know that one day it will all betray you? But when we drift, do our tears dry under the sun of Our daydreams – In place of all our streams; your teeth could still sink in my skin But even those that had a bite of love; are still searching for their Own piece. I miss the sleep of our daydreams when we had the few times To dream, and not going to look for love in sheets – When love was paved on the streets; not these things That belong to THE STREETS! Where we could be dancing in the waves of the sea; Surfing all of your best ideas, when kids dared to dream Never too afraid to swim, when we had each other to pick Us up, whenever we start to sink.                                                 _when we were kids._
