You Must Be

You must be the intimate of my past life    
       
Otherwise, you won’t detect my depression        
And come to embrace me        
To destroy my empty obsession        
   
Otherwise, you won’t perceive my stress        
And listen to my complaints        
While I am hiding my duress        
   
Otherwise, you won’t sense my pain        
And hug me tight        
Even though I conceal my shame        
       
You must be my man in another life      
      
Otherwise, you won’t know I feel unstable        
And come to take my part        
Even though I disguise being able      
      
Otherwise, you won’t rescue my trouble        
And stretch out your hand        
While I am trapped in my bubble      
     
Otherwise, you won’t take my ferocity        
And dare to stand by me        
While I am erupting and spewing animosity        
       
You must be my reincarnated lover      
      
Otherwise, you won’t understand my despair        
And look into my eyes        
While I am projecting no care        
   
Otherwise, you won’t sense I’m naughty        
And dare to tease me        
While I am showing off my devil’s body      
     
Otherwise, you won’t know when I sleep with eyes tight        
And text a message        
To say Sleep Well, Good Night        
       
Thank you for always being by my side
