Still On My Mind

Still on my mind
All those days of holding
Hands
Kissing, promising while playing
In the sand

Best of friends
Right from tender age of seven
So we promised to be, even
In heaven

As a child never forgets
The position of mommy’s breast
My heart holds on to you
Until the days of his grace

Eternity past, eternity present 
Together with the love of my parents
No one can change this
You are my God sent

Love has never been
So strong, pieces through the heart
Stronger than laser beam
Our kind has never seen

You promised me future
From the past
Now I can see the reality 
Of love in your eyes

Even if everything is scarce
You and I
Our limit is the
Sky

Mama told me a story 
Of my child
Your name stayed in my mouth
Day and night

With all that came and 
Is gone
Through the pain and sorrows 
That follows

Your home
Still
Is my heart
