When lovers around the world play
With each other’s hair and toss and turn
I open my eyes wide
Starring at the darkness
Thinking of my bruised lip
When it brushed up against yours
My initial prayers were answered
So help me God
Night is too long, too dark, too sombre
To painful to sleep on my own
I don’t have a choice now, do I?
But wait for your return
I count seconds, minutes and hours
I think of all the things on earth
I long to hold you, sleep on your chest
But still it’s a dream,
“But not impossible”,
I scream…
