C.H.5

Renelle Nava 1977 (Lingayen)



C.H.5


These thoughts came to mind
I hope expressing them you wouldn’t mind

Before you come upon a decision
Let’s clarify some confusion

If you’ve got desires that are unfulfilled
Don’t use lies as a shield

I wouldn’t want you to feel tied
And I wouldn’t want to be lied

I think that you should fulfill them
And get them out of your system

My intentions with you are pure
And so far my feelings are sure

But I want you to feel the same
So we wouldn’t have each other to blame

You seem younger than I am
And you shouldn’t waste your youth on a sham

I will have to repeat myself
So you know that I wouldn’t want to keep it in a shelf

Get your desires fulfilled
Before we both yield
