antes de dormir (before sleep)


Before I sleep the thoughts of life play in my head The past, the present, the future The words left unsaid I contemplate life What it offers And what it gives I seek for comfort in its passion That gives me drive to wanna live The words he once told me I wonder if he meant it to be the truth Or if it was all a lie I fell under to I wonder if my acceptance Will take me far That by moving half way around the world Will lessen the pain from these scars I wonder if I am good enough Or if I ever will be To have a man to think of me Before he goes to sleep… Lisa ruiz May 15th, 2013
