I wanna take a break
from your perfume and your smell...
from your hug covering me like a shell...
from your invasion to my whole life
from your eyes stabbing my will as a knife...
I wanna take a break...
I wanna take a breath...
away from all convincing thoughts you tell me...
from the beauty of your soul I always see...
away from the messages of your expressive lips at night
from your sweet words in the morning that make me right...
I wanna take a breath...
I wanna sit with myself
with my mirror, with my pillow...
with my poems, with my sorrow...
I wanna regain part of a control...
I wanna close in my heart that hole...
I wanna sit with myself...
I wanna test my tolerance
to your attraction...your risk... your absence....
I wanna try to revive my self-consciousness
my lost confidence...my calm happiness...
I wanna see my family and my friends again
I wanna concentrate on my lovely work again
I wanna live or die...
perhaps it is the same...
