Love Is a Journey

LET’S RUN AWAY
LET’S LEAVE EVERYTING BEHIND
ECXEPT OUR LOVE

LET’S TAKE A JOURNEY BEYOND
OUR WILDEST DREAMS
AND EXPLORE THE WORLD


LET’S TAKE A CHANSE IN
PUSHING OUR LIMITS
AND STEPPING OVER OUR BOUNDRIES

LET’S SEE WHAT THE WORLD HAS TO OFFER
LET’S HEAR WHAT THE WORLD HAS TO SAY
LET’S REPRESENT A SYMBOL OF FREEDOM

LET’S MAKE OUR WAY INTO THE HISTORY BOOKS
LET’S SET A GOAL TO ACHIEVE OUR FREEDOM OF SPEECH AND THOUGHT
LET’S SHOW THE GRIEFING SOULS THAT HAPPINESS DOES EXIST

LET’S SET AN EXAMPLE OF HOW TO LIVE LIFE TO THE EXTREME
LET’S BE AN INSPARATION TO INSPIRE YOUNG MINDS
LET’S BE A LIVELINE TO THOSE IN NEED

LET’S BANISH THE DARK AND REPLACE IT WITH PURE LIGHT
LET’S FIGHT FOR WHAT WE BELIEVE IN
LET’S MAKE A DIFFERENCE BY STANDING TOGETHER AS ONE

LET’S BE THE BEST THAT WE CAN BE
LET’S BE PROUD OF WHAT WE HAVE ACIEVED
LET’S SEE HOW NOTHING BUT OUR LOVE HAS COMPLETED

The Fear For God

We fear a three
Letter word...
GOD

A powerful king -
That even Heaven
Itself greets Him
By bowing down
In royal robes of 
Pure white

As He walks among
Those who He Himself
Calls His angels of light
He gives them guidance
To go out into the world
Where the enemies traps
Await those who are unsaved

He sends his finest
Warriors to go and 
Save those who
Has been mislead
By the enemies wicked
And evil ways of living

He then wraps them 
In His love and show
Them the right way
Of how to live their
Lives... 
Sinless 

The unsaved
Become the saved
The weakened 
Become the strong
And the lies...
The lies have been forgotten

The past has
Been written off
for the Lord Himself
Took the fall for their
Sins

The enemy is no
Match for this
King...
He too fears the
The one that
We call
GOD

Trespassers Beware

ENTERINGA ROOM OF PITCH BLACK SILENCE
WHERE HERE AND THERE A DULL LIGHT FLICKERS
ON AND OFF
ON AND OFF
ON AND OFF

THE DOOR BEHIND ME SHUTS CLOSED
AND ITS ECHO RUNS ACROSS
THE DAMP WALLS

MY HEART SUDDENLY STARTS TO BEAT TO THE RHYTHM OF THE
UNSEEN VOICES
AND I’M LEFT WITH NO SENSE OF DIRECTIOIN

I CLOSE MY EYES HOPING THAT THIS IS NOTHING BUT A BAD DREAM,
BUT WHEN I OPEN THEM UP I SEE SOUL TRADERS FLYING AROUND,
LOOKING FOR THEIR NEXT VICTIM

I REALIZE THAT I’M THE CENTER OF ATTENTION
AND THERE’S NO TURNING BACK

FOR I DID NOT SEE THE WARNING
ON THE DOOR WHEN I ENTERED
“TRESPASSERS BEWARE”

An Unexpected Expadition

IT WAS A NIGHT FULL OF EXCITEMENT,
JOY, FUN AND LAUGHTER

FRIENDLY FACES GREETED US
AND THE SMILES WERE ENDLESS
WITHOUT US KNOWING
SOMEONE WAS WATCHING OVER US…

AFTER A NIGHT TO REMEMBER – 
THAT SOMEONE TOOK US ON AN EXPADITION…

IT WAS COLD 
AND THE ROAD WAS WET
OUR EXPADITION TURNED
OUT TO BE VERY JOLTING…

ALL OF A SUDDEN…
WE SAW IT COMING TOWARDS US
OUR MINDS HAD A GLIMPSE 
OF NEAR DEATH

WE HEARD SCREECING BREAKS, WINDOWS BREAKING
AND THE SOUND OF … FEAR, SHOCK
AND DISSOLUTION
IT WAS LIKE THE SOUND OF WAR

WE SWERVED OUT, DODGING THE
PIECES OF CONCRETE 

WITH MY PULSE RAISING AND
MY HEART THOBING I CAME
TO REALIZE THAT I HAD TO 
CHEACK IF THERE WERE NO
CRITICAL INJURED PEOPLE

MY BODY WAS FROZEN BUT MY MIND 
STAYED CLEAR
WE HELPED THE DRIVER TO STAY 
CALM UNTILL THE AMBULANCE ARRIVED

AFTER THAT WE CONTINUED
OUR JOURNY BACK TO OUR DESTANATION
BUT OUR EXCITEMENT TURNED INTO SHOCK, 
OUR JOY INTO SADNESS, OUR FUN SPOILED 
AND SILENCE TOOK AWAY 
OUR LAUGHTER

WE CAME TO REALIZE THAT 
GOD WAS THE ONE WATCHING 
OVER US AND THAT OUR LIVES
WERE SPARED

HE TOOK US ON AN EXPADITION NEVER TO BE 
FORGOTTEN BUT KNOWING 
THAT HE IS ALWAYS WITH  
US KEEPING US SAFE FROM
UNEXPECTED EXPADITIONS

A Thousand Smiles

WITH YOUR WARM VOICE
AND SOFT LIPS
I’M FOR EVER YOURS

YOU LIGHTEN UP MY LIFE WITH YOUR LAUGHTER
AND YOU TAKE AWAY MY
SORROWS WITH YOUR CHARM
I’M FOR EVER UNDER YOUR SPELL

YOU EMBRACE MY HEART
WITH YOUR SOLUTIONS
AND GIVE ME ANSWERS
TO MY NEEDY QUESTIONS

YOU TURN MY LIFE INTO A JOURNEY
AND TAKE AWAY MY PAIN
YOU GIVE ME LOVE
AND HIDE AWAY MY HATE

YOU GIVE ME LIGHT
WHEN DARKNESS HAS SURROUNDED ME
BUT MOST IMPORTANTLY
YOU TURN ALL MY TEARS
INTO A THOUSAND SMILES

Silent Night

AS I LAY IN THE MIDDLE
OF THE GOLDEN 
GRASSFIELDS OF 
MOTHER NATURE
I ADMIRE THE CALMNESS
WITHIN MY SOUL

THE STIL, BUT
SOOTHING, WIND BLOWING 
THROUGH THE TREES
KINDLY GREET THE
EMERALD GREEN LEAVES
THAT SEEM TO EMBRACE 
THE WINDS ATMOSPHERE

THE BOASTFUL FLOWERS FLAUNT
THEIR MULTICOLORED PETALS 
FOR ALL THOSE TO IDOLISE THEM

THE DISTANT MOUNTIAN TOPS
ARE COVERED IN PURE
WHITE SNOW – NOT EVEN
THE SUN DARES TO MELT ITS
FROZEN AND THICK INNOCENCE 

THE SMALL TREE CRITTEERS
SCURRY AROUND TO AVOID
THE LETHAL TALON OF THE
BOLD EAGLE THAT SOARS 
UBOVE THE SAPPHIRE SKY

BUT ONCE THE SUNSET
ARRIVES…
ALL THOSE WHO WERE
BOASTFUL, INNOCNET 
AND BOLD...
SURRENDER THEIR
UNIQUE ABILITIES
TO SETTLE DOWN - AWATING
FOR THE PEACEFUL 
NIGHT TO ARRIVE

Realizing-

I awoke with
the sound of nature…
knowing that today
is a gift

My soul feels alive…
awaiting to be called upon

My mind is set on one
thing only…
love

Every vein 
in my body is
overflowing
with peace

My actions are
random
acts of kindness

My words are pure
and inspirational

Then I come to realize that
life has been given
to me so that I 
may live it abundantly
for every heartbeat …
is a gift from God

A Vindictive Mind

A MIND SEEKING REVENGE
IS LIKE A PRISONER WITH NO JUSTICE
IT WON’T TAKE ANY RESPONSIBILITY FOR  ITS ACTIONS
FOR IT WILL  PLOT AN ILLEGAL PLAN OF  DESTRUCTIVE EVIL

IT WILL FORSAKE AND TERRORIZE ANY SIGHN OF A CONSCIENCE
IT WILL FORBID ANY FORCE OF INSANITY
AND WILL BARRICADE ITS TEARS
ITS DARKNESS IS INEVITABLE

IT WIL BECOME ABORTIVE
IT WILL FLAUNT ITS FALSE EMOTIONS
BUT IT WILL EXTIRPATE ITS PLAN
AND IT WOULD LEAD TO A GRIDLOCK

THE MIND WOULD THEN HAVE HYPOCHONDRIA
IT CHOSE ITS KISMET
BUT IT STILL HAS A PLAN TO LYNCH SOMEONE
BUT IT WILL THEN MARTYR

THE MIND SEEKING REVENGE IS NOW NOXIOUS
AND OVERPOWERING
IT’S SLAPDASH
BUT A TYRO IN ITS NEXT SCHEME

IT WILL JAB THROUGH ITS CARELESS THOUGHTS
BUT IN THE END IT WILL HAVE A FEELING,
A FEELING OF PIQUE
AND IT WILL RUMINATE OF ITS DEEDS

Faith and Fear

SHE AWOKE WITH 
A SENCE OF PRIDE
NOT KNOWING THAT 
HER FAITH WOULD BE TESTED
AND HER FEAR…

AS THE SUN WAS BLAZING
DOWN ON HER WEAK AND
DEHYDRATED BODY 
HER THOUGHTS OF SURVIVAL
TURNED INTO STONE

HER FEET COULD NOT
TAKE THE RAGE OF 
THE SCORCHING DESERT
SAND AND HER BATTLE 
FOR LIFE BECAME FLAGGING

HER TORTURED BODY
COLLAPSED IN THE 
MIDDLE OF ENDLESS 
SAND DUNES AND SHE…
SHE WAS LEFT TO DIE
AND FOR THE SAVAGED 
VALTURES TO FEAST 
ON HUMAN FLEASH

SHE LAY THERE WITH 
NO STRENGTH…


SHE WANTED TO GIVE UP
SHE WANTED DEATH 
TO COME AND TAKE HER AWAY
BUT JUST BEFORE SHE
COULD NO MORE…

SHE FELT SOMETHING
INSIDE OF HER…
IT FELT LIKE FREASH
AND ICE COLD WATER THAT
SHE EAGERLY DESIRED
FOR SO MANY DAYS


ALL OF A SUDDEN 
SHE WAS FILLED 
WITH NEW STRENGTH
AND HER WILL POWER 
WAS FILLED TO THE MAX

SHE COULD NOT UNDERSTAND
WHY SHE FELT SO POWERFUL 
AND ALIVE 
AND WHY HER COURAGE
CAME BACK TO PICK HER UP

WITH A NEW LIFE SHE STOOD
UP AND CONTINUED TO
WALK UNTILL SHE CAME
TO A VILLAGE…

TO HER AMAZEMENT 
SHE CAME TO REALIZE…
IT WAS HER VILLAGE,
HER HOME WHICH SHE
HAD TO FLED FROM
IN ORDER FOR
HER TO STAY ALIVE 

SHE THOUGHT THAT
THERE WERE NO SURVIVIOURS
DUE TO THE ATTACK

WITH OVERWHELMING 
DESIREMENT SHE 
RAN TOWARDS HER FAMILY…

SHE AWOKE THAT 
FOLLOWING MORNING
WITH A SENSE OF PRIDE
KNOWING THAT HER FAITH WAS
TESTED BEYOND
HER BELIEVE 
AND HER FEAR…
WAS BURRIED UNDER MILLIONS
OF SAND GRAINS
 
IN THAT TREACHEROUS SAND TRAP

Its Hard But Yet Easy

IT’S HARD TO FACE REALITY
BUT YET EASY TO LIVE IN A FANTASY
IT’S HARD TO LIVE WITH A BURDAN
BUT YET EASY TO EMBRASE IT

IT’S HARDTO DEAL WITH PROBLEMS
BUT YET EASY TO SOLVE THEM

IT’S HARD TO SEE A FRIEND DIE
BUT YET EASY TO MAKE A NEW ONE
IT’S HARD TO COPE WITH EMOTIONS
BUT YET EASY TO EXPRESS THEM

IT’S HARD TO ALWAYS LAUGH
BUT YET EASY TO SMILE
IT’S HARD TO EXCEPT SOMEONE
BUT YET EASY TO GET TO KNOW THEM

IT’S HARD TO BE LOVED
BUT YET EASY TO SHOW LOVE

IT’S HARD TO LIVE LIFE
BUT YET EASY TO ENJOY IT
IT’S HARD TO GET TO KNOW YOURSELF
BUT YET EASY TO TURN IT INTO A JOURNY IN DESCOVERING IT FOR YOURSELF
