How to be Loved


Locked tight, I held the key

but unwillingly, I placed it in your hands

was I just lucky,

or was it destiny ?

was it a coincidence or fate ?

whatever it was, I'm happy that it's you

who threw the lock away

 

my walls tumbled, my sanity crumbled

and soon there will only be a part of me

while the other half will definitely be you

love; I've been captivated

and swallowed in it

there's no more waiting, I appreciate it

everything you do

 

cause my heart would've remained closed

and I would've never known

how to be loved

 

this is the kind of love I've always wanted

this is the kind of love I knew would take me there

but now that I've got it, now that I feel it

now that it's running through my veins

i can't help but be scared, scared of losing you
