What’s stopping us?

Secretly gazing until eyes meet halfway,

“Speak”, two hearts whisper,

But lips are stiff that couldn't say the word “Hi”,

Heads bow down, nothing to do but sigh,

What’s stopping us?

The crescent moon dazzles,

The stars irradiate our faces,

We want to dance underneath the beautiful sky,

But we think it’s better not to ply,

What’s stopping us?

You leave a note on my crimson bed every night,

Telling me you always wish you had the might,

If women could just take the lead freely,

Then I would love to sing you a song dearly,

What’s stopping us?

If Romeo and Juliet ended up together,

Though haplessness of the world is in their shoulder,

Why don’t we embrace this lovely moment,

While there are no walls on the pavement?

What’s stopping us?

One night,  breeze takes us to the shore,

But sound of the wave fades as our hearts pulsate more,

We have waited for this twinkling,

Oh please, let us get rid of escaping,

What’s stopping us?

You hold my hand as you step closer,

I feel your breath getting warmer,

Eye to eye, heart to heart,

Oh why those hearts are wounded?

What’s stopping us?

Wounds from yesteryear,

Yes, they still exist,

Hearts are still unwrapped,

Uncertainty is answered,

This is stopping us.
