Time Bomb

Leandra Fuentes 1991 (connecticut)



every time i look up all i see is your face.
all the pain inside and all the lies like its the truth.
i cant let you go, not like before.
Because, your love is like a time ticking time bomb.
your love is like everything, ticking ticking inside.
there is so much hate and so much crime but,
is it enough for you this time
ticking ticking inside.
Because these lies are becoming able to hide inside.
but you, you have shown me what love is really like.
all the pain, the hate bouncing inside.
Its amazing how no one can hear me.
no one but you this time.
Because your love is like a ticking time bomb.
your love is like everything ticking ticking inside.
there is so much hate and so much crime but, is it enough for you this time.
ticking, ticking inside.
