Analysis of Beginning of the end

Bruno Arnold Kamau 2004 (Nairobi)



BEGINNING OF THE END
Through the rubbles,
All the adversities,
I am in a quagmire,
But I still need you by my side
I don't want a reason why I should
let go of you,
Because I don want to believe you
are letting go of me too,
Tell me your heart is saying no,
Coz I don think I'll be fine giving to
someone else what belongs to you
I really need to know what comes
after love,
Is it what we are about to have
right now,
I feel the pain to the deepest part
of my ticker,
For it is only I who knows how
much I love you
Tell me it's getting a little hard to
leave,
I can't really be strong enough for
the both of us
I wish I had a way but the more I hold on the more I can feel you slip,
I guess this means it is the
beginning of our end.
