Be my self

(Gustavo Carpio C.)

Now that the end is near

Now that I love U more than ever

Now that I’ve become one more of the bunch…

For you.

Now is when I would like to run away

Escape from us

Escape from the world.

Worried I am.

Confused is my head.

Escape I can’t.  Just when

You are escaping from my hands

And I want myself back from wherever it might be.

Sinking is this ground we step on

Like it wants to swallow the pain we cause to each other

I don’t want to feel this way

But I don’t want to change just yet

falling I am

And I don’t want it to consume me

I’ll just let it go

I’ll just let it be

I’ll take a bread.

And be myself again.
