Signed By Heaven
Worth saving in my heart,
A color falling whenever am lost,
Enthralling my fiber east to west,
Nobody can deny our love of fate,
A love fashioning my heart with happiness,
What more can I ask for than this?
I close my eyes and gaze to yesterday,
When you consumed me to lead your way,
I open my eyes to my book of life,
How can a person come in your life with the sunshine?
The brightest days yet ahead of me,
How sweet a fate; to love,
I can’t take my eyes off you,
A million times I replay all my conversations with you,
My entire being lives in you,
The one who pieced my once tattered life; that’s you,
Each day I love you more,
Am dead without you by my side,
My heart will have no use,
I won’t care for anything anymore,
I will be rotting in pain,
No, I can’t stand my heart in that stain,
I can’t free myself from your grasp; it’s all in vain,
Am a slave to you and bear the burden,
To love you to the end without measure,
I can’t free myself from this joy I feel inside,
Like a wallet of pictures full of sweet memories,
Drawn from the faces of former times,
From every last page of this album of contentment,
Unforgettable moments hoarded by my tiny heart,
When you mended my broken heart,
That when I learn t you alone could edit my heart,
The sun shone again,
I learn t how to love again,
The day you made me laugh; held me when I cried and told me it’ll be alright,
When I made you the first thought of the day and my last breathe before I laid to rest,
I remember when you first proclaimed your love for me,
The blue sky celebrated with me,
I thank you for letting me love you,
And for never letting me go,
All those places we shared,
Including the trees we sketched our names,
All those memories we banked in our hearts,
Are the recollections cherished by every end of our filaments.
