For decades’ faith remains the essence of life
Believing in advance is the element of persistence
At times darkness will find you and
Harness the fabric of your faith!
Faith can never be hidden
It brings a sudden shift in our situation
Let your faith work
God through Jesus Christ can do it!

No matter how many lives I've lived -
I die but only once.
No matter how many turns I've had -
I face one taken chance.
No matter how many times I've loved -
I crave for one last dance.
Sweet life, and bittersweet at times -
I thank you in advance.

The word freedom is a guilt
due to its somehows and whys
even nature mirrages so
family of months and days
as one yet, it is such apt
to melt, methought stone is hard
October year has good views
if it is fancied as supposed
and let that a turning through
and same number four year an
even a better of two?
let in summer and winter
the earth is a fine nature
of a place to behold love
if the object is peace here
peace here and there or throughout
a journey one that should be kept....
Here-
no one gulps
yet we aspire
here-
no one guess
yet we dream
ah!, here-
love simply is
a fulfilment of orders.
If I saw the sign,
That my life is going as it should,
Then I would know exactly how
Find what is called a treasure trove.
I'm afraid I made a mistake,
And that there will be an explosion in,
Fate flashed and disappeared,
Slightly opening the future for me.
I am surrounded by eternal darkness,
And I'm afraid I won't see the way.
Although I chose this path myself,
And I can't get away from it.
It conjures up happiness,
But I feel the cold of darkness.
I'm only warmed by passion,
And there is no other way, understand!
I want to run without looking back,
To banish the ancient fear,
My path has never been smooth,
I'm always wandering in the dark.
I really want to know my fate,
I'm tired of guessing on coffee grounds.
Although I don't really believe in divination,
But I want to know about the future.
Heartburn riled me up smartly,
Woke me up and slammed me on the floor
Before acid reflux could …
Oops. Too late! I ran for the bathroom.
Arthritis laughed and made my feet whimper
It felt like I had broken both my ankles.
Must be raining today, I guessed
As I wretched in the toilet
Eyes joined my face in the mirror
You are pathetic, eyes said, noting my oldness.
Falling apart bit by bit, inch by inch, day by day,
Aging is something I did not anticipate in advance.
Put your Mr. Happy back in your pants
Must know to be careful when you try to dance
The dance of passion
Your dancing's been rationed
To save your heart must know many weeks in advance

When u forgive and forget
And just remember good days
When u ignore sunset
And only watch its lovely rays
When u asked ur heart to hate
And yet u never do
When u can always wait
In desert a lovely dew
When u got hurt too much
But trying to go through
When u miss your lover's touch
But he became cold as snow
When u able to be kind
Even to who are so cruel
When they thought you are blind
and for them acting like a fool
Keep going ,emprace your heart
Be proud of your unique soul
No matter who choose to apart
or who decide to end his role
cheaters like autumn leaves
So simply let them fall
Remember that your own griefs
Had been always their goal
Yes you are the one
Who gives others new chance
But when they are gone
Simply say : thanx in advance !
