I wanted to hold myself, but I couldn’t.

I wanted to hold myself, but I couldn’t.

I wanted to hold myself,
Before I lose faith on myself,
Before I lose me,
Completely,
Cause when I’ll let a stranger hold me,
he’ll hold my body,
And nothing more,
Which wouldn’t help me,
Or maybe it would,
It’ll make me feel that I’ve someone around,
But only for a couple of time,
And then I’ll be lonely again,


And still,
I wanna be touched,
And I know he never would want to reach my soul,
I should believe its okay,
Its okay,
To be touched by people,
With whom you can’t have any label,
Who are expected to leave,
Better than those,
Who falsely make you believe,
That they’ll not leave,


True love, previously I use to dream of
Now I wonder if it really exists,
And Hence, I believed
Its okay to be loved with the body, and only with the body….
