When am lost deep into desperation
On the days when a rage covers my intentions
Will your touch rescue my repression
To open my eyes that seek attention

.............

On the days when I cannot have my inhalation
And my nose is stifling in resignation
Will you attempt to resuscitate my meditations?
To make me strong during my hallucinations

..............

When your friends revile my face
Will you forsake them and take my direction?
When you admire a shoe that I cannot afford
Will you still marry me with all I lack

...............

If I kneel down in the morning light
To give you a ring that will fade at night
And open my mouth to say a word
Will you marry me is all I ask
