Would you shed a tear
Or just live like everyday
If it is tomorrow
That God takes me away
To his kingdom in the clouds
Would you watch me there, as I float about?
I fear when darkness steals the light.
And your image, I lose sight,
For in it, I always find delight—
Of staring, not for a brief, nor slight.
I tremble when silence deafens the music,
And hear not the sound I seek;
For your voice, soft and meek,
Inspires hope, never so bleak.
I quiver when coldness douses the warmth,
And ashes the fire from the hearth;
For your embrace is light to my path,
Wrapping me tender, like a swath.
I dread when rancor drowns the bliss.
And moments with you, I sorely miss
For the time of love, I always wish
Casting loneliness down the abyss.
Be my comfort, always,
My unending strength;
For none could fill your place —
Your love and tenderness.
Our hearts be in perfect harmony
I love his body.
He always says he loves mine.
I love his spirit.
He always reciprocates.
He and I share divine love.
This love is a needle ,
It pricks my gentle chest,
Like a thorn it tears my tissues away ,
A great sensation of pain caresses my soul,
Sweet yet unbearable,
Like the sky on mercury retrograde.
It burdens my soul yet lifts my spirit,
Somehow I can't seem to escape it,
Like an occurrence of hurricane,
It clouds my judgement,
And blocks my instincts ,
Evidently I feel it alone .
I waited for tomorrow,
And time laughed on my face,
The cherry blossoms never blossomed,
Tomorrow forgot to visit ,
A stranger acquired you ,
Yet I'm left holding on to these emotions,
Time heals all wound they say,
But there's no healing an unwounded heart ,
Or an unscared soul ,
I chose pain ,
After setting my eyes on you ,
I knew it could never be returned,
Yet I chose to pour it out unconditionally,
I'm a fool in love I can't reason,
I'm a fool in love I'm brainless,
Just dying to be loved by you ,
Desperation drives my current fate.
I love you, I love you, I love you
What beautiful words to hear
A warm fuzzy feeling envelopes our soul
Words that always endear
True love is the reason we all exist
Travelling down life's bumpy road
Without love to guide us, we'd all be lost
Struggling with life's heavy load
Many times in life, love invades our soul
Each time it feels so intense
It's the warmest emotion we've ever felt
As deep as the ocean immense
Nothing has really ever felt any sweeter
In each dream I see her face
Just holding her sweet body close to mine
In a warm and loving embrace
I've loved this lady for many long years
It's as strong as it was at the start
Memories rush back to the very beginning
Back when she captured my heart
Tale of valour is about to unfold
Gallant knight's effigy in marble so cold
Once he was stalwart full of manly vigour
The name was feared his enemies shivered.
Yet, there was young maiden who loved him well
Like moth to flame, he did compel
Her wings were singed as she flew to his side
Throughout her short life, she did abide.
How she was missed but he never let on
Astride great charger his armour shone
Safe in his heart was her very own place
Never to forget beloved face.
Spirits are free in either they rise
Listen to breeze you will hear soft sigh
One thousand years they are still in love
Medieval moment on wings of Dove
A silent undying love --is most of the time,the antidote to liberty.
.
I want you in my life
for today, tomorrow and forever.
Everything feels empty
when you are not around,
but our love is what keeps me going.
Nothing can explain fully how fortunate I am
to have you in my life.
For Loving you has become a must for me
It is no longer a choice or and option.
If there’s one thing
in this world
I’m afraid to lose, it’s you.
I am so in love with you
that I can’t dare to lose you!
I wish to be everything.
that brings a smile on your face
and happiness to your heart
I dream of a world where you and I
would live for a thousand years to love each other.
Though I Know I wouldn’t Live to be a thousand
I Will Never Let You Be a Foreigner In My Midst.
Tonight, at the foot of the bed,
She is watching.
How peaceful he is sleeping.
Wondering if he ever thought,
Of that crucial night.
That changed their lives.
He took off in a speed,
After revealing his secret.
End up in a hospital bed,
In need of a heart transplant.
Rushing to be with him,
Her life end,
With a fatal accident.
Brain dead, they said.
Now her heart is beating,
In his chest.
Feeling lost and betrayed,
She came to claim.
What is rightfully hers.
While he is sleeping,
Next to his lover.
If she couldn’t have him in the living,
While they both were alive.
Then it’s time he must die.
They made their vowels.
'til death do us part.
~Dedicated to my beautiful mum~
I stare into those brown, tired eyes
And realise in them an entire story lies
One of hardships and lots of sacrifice
And a sparkling ember that never dies
For every time i walked through fires
And nobody could hear my cries
It were these very same tired eyes
That saw through my fake smiles
Whatever i put up, a mask or a disguise
She could easily dismiss my lies
And sense my pain of the most acute size
Even when we're seperated by miles.
No amount of love i give would suffice
For after all, for me her body did dice
I changed her looks and her styles
And turned on her during my troubled times
But instead of looking at me with despise,
I can see the undying love in those tired eyes.
It is like a dream lost in a dream when undying love becomes unloved
The thoughts that linger in my head
A shadow of you that never fades
The echoes of everything you said
Will follow me for the rest of my life till the end
You scream bloody murder together
Promise her your undying love forever
Roll over and whisper
The name of her sister
Then you realize that wasn't too clever
Tell me your reason
I will decide what to forgive
I will decide if to forget
No one is responsible
But everyone is to blame
We deny the obvious
And we hide the truth
All to keep appearances
We are looking for peace
Just so we can sleep together one more time
Just so we can kiss each other goodmorning
I let the desire for your lips win
Knowing they always burn my skin
I have a taste for poison
Oh sweet poison
I have love for what kills me
I should take responsibility
But it's never someone's fault
It is what it is
You turn the other cheek, I turn a blind eye
All to enjoy the sweet poison one more time
And we die
Again...
