Pose a question that requires imminent answer
Repeat enough times until it has lost its meaning
Flipping a coin to decide if to look for love
if to stay to live, or leave to die

Mutter an answer with subtle silence
Repeat enough times until it has lost its meaning
Pacing inside the agony to find a feeling lost
to take and lose, or give and gain

Reciprocity is the gravity
the equal but opposite force
Holding together yet tearing apart
Ending with a shiver but never start


While we are sitting in this snow-filled room
Soft clouds grazing in the sky following a gentle breeze
I look up and we are already dying
I look down and you are no longer crying

ten seconds later
ten minutes later
ten months later
ten years later

Till forever lasting the soft touch
in fuzzy motion distorts true intention
Repeat enough times until it has lost its meaning
Repeat enough times until it has lost its meaning

To love or be loved
Why not both?
