I'M Not Getting Any Younger

I'm not getting any younger
My aim now is to live longer
To do as much as possible of good deeds
& to stay far away from all what God forbids

I'm not getting any younger
Nor am I getting older
I still can fall in love, as love is innocent
And age is just a number

I'm not getting any younger
To my mom I'll always be a baby
So I still can laugh out loud
Until now while watching Tom and Jerry

I'm not getting any younger
I know my life can end anytime but my life is not yet over
So I have all the right to have every kind of fun
To smile all the time and have a good life like everyone

I'm not getting any younger
So I still can change for better
I'm a bad person that's what people think but it doesn't matter
Just wait and watch all who were blind will see soon or later

I'm not getting any younger
And yes I haven't stop dreaming as I'm still a dreamer
As still some of my dreams are unfulfilled
But I believe in God, as surely one day God will grant my prayer.

An Egg Heart

As a sensitive personality I hold….
I tend to be easily hurt 
I feel the deep pain a lot 
When the close one hurt’s me most 
Deep sadness and very cold 
I tend to wet my eyes 
Flu I suddenly develop 
Migraine becomes the ruler of my head 
When no one is bothered to watch 
I cry loud but still no one hears my voice 
Searching for that big hug 
That once was given to me, without begging when I was a child 
But wherever I glance now, all the doors are closed 
Too say sad to say even windows are shut

It’s tiring to be blamed and be proved wrong every time
It's boring to say sorry when you are not suppose to

I need to take a deep breath
Before I make a wish 

Where can I find a lovely world? 
Which I would completely fit in

Tired of cleaning the floor which everyday get's dust 
only when they need me they wear their innocent masks
And later say those are little things
She herself is making it look big

Everyday I forgive but until when
How sad I tend to be, it’s hard to explain 
when someone hurts my heart it feels as if a needle is inserted

No matter how hard I try to forget and not to cry,
It is the more cry……
