Keep Love Alive





Keep Love Alive
By Nomar Knight

To love someone and not get it back
Is worse than a bullet exploding
In your chest

You want to scream
Shout out and say
"I'm here! Why don't you show me!"

Love me for all I'm worth
I'm not a slave
I'm not trash

How am I supposed to stay in love
When you want, take, and drain me
I'm not a toy

I want so badly
To throw in the towel
Give up on love

But I know I shouldn't
Can't let you kill me
I'm not breakable

That's why I won't let you
Put me down again
Cause I have a secret

While you think it's all about you
I reach inside myself
And keep love alive
