I loved like a sloth.

I clinged to him like a life source,

like a sloth clings to a branch.

I fought for him to see me , love me, want me.

I used all my strength to stay 

in the safety of his affection.

I loved like a sloth, 

but I am just a girl, and I fell from the tree

through the leaves and branches,

and when I hit the ground I was alone. 

Tears flowed off my cheeks in a stream, 

until I floated away.

Now I love like a fish.
