More Than I Can Bear
I found myself in a pool of tears
i almost soaked in it,hundreds
of thoughts run so fast like an antelope
to my mind
I was stupefied when I heard my less good
Damped within inside and my bone goes limp
It battered me like an iron clattered on the ground
Lodged in my heart like a heavy load
To her, I an incompetent, when world knock you down
Try to arouse your good mood
that was always my thought, I am a good
looking guy but poor! I know
Having loving heart, but poor! I know
Always focused on poetry, think
of nothing else, wish to be the foremost among the best
to make her proud of me, lack
of care, she said because am lack of cash
As we all known woman needs not only love but also cash
I tried to stifle her irritation
but all were just in vain
However, we have not married yet, but all my aim is that
she will be my helpmate
With many relationships I have encounter
Soon she will tell me to take my mind off her
Soon my heart will be left in pain
Soon my heart will be empty and uncertain
Soon she will leave me in this lonely war
This is more than I can bear
I can't stand it no more
