I wanna speak
But words evaded rushing to my tongue
It left my stomach twisted
My throat, a lump
I wanna cry
But the tears turned to smile
A gentle nod, a turning of an eye
I walked passed crowded places
Where I want myself to drown
But I was hit by the spotlight
I had to wave and say hi
Murmurs are everywhere
Associating my name in every turn
It was all in my head, a voice told me
I believed what it said until I met somebody
He spoke the words I heard from the streets
Shook my hands with a gentle kiss
Disappointed me, piece by piece
Truly, one should never meet her bliss
'Cause it is bitter when you finally get a gist.
