Happy Birthday Tino

It’s you’re birthday this I know
And we will celebrate it this is so
There’ll be you, your pup and I
All together on the 7TH day of July.

There’ll be cake and candles too
And the birthday song sung by us to you
And on your birthday card you’ll see
You are precious to him and me.

And know I'm blessed with a friend like you.
So please take the friend in me that’s true
I’ll stand by you until the end.
If you'll accept me as your true friend.

Happy Birthday, Tino

My Best Friend

In this world we live in 
where kind gestures are few,
I am grateful to know I was
blessed with a friend like you.

I just wanted to say "THANK YOU"
in which ever way I can, for 
always being there for me, for 
holding my hand. You've made 
me laugh, you've made me cry, 
you've made me smile; and every 
moment I've spent with you MY
FRIEND has always been worth while....

Of all treasures more precious than
gold, you are that friend I've always
wanted but never known. Thank you
for being who you are- no matter the
distance how close or how far, you'll  
always be present in the dwelling of my heart.

You Are In My Life

If life was given a second chance...
I like to turn back my childhood...
I would start again…I will write again...
I will write my life with a good friend...
A good friend like you…
A friend to understand. A friend to care…
A friend to laugh with and a friend to care…
A friend like you to share…
I wish I was given a second chance…
To be with a friend like you…
To cry on your shoulder…
When the hurts was so full..
When tears was too long…
When smiles were all gone…
I wished I was given a second chance…
You know me…my deepest secrets…
You care for me like a child…
You are all in all in my life….
I know I am yet not to late…
But I want be able to re write my life again…
But I know it all happens for a reason…
I am glad... are in my life…
For all the reasons…!!


Broken Friendship

You are so Harsh!
and everybody hates you.
so you have hurt me 
and fill me with all this pity.
we were best friends 
we kept secrets,
all of our fights would all come to mends.
cried on each others shoulders.
then, you started to be..different, NOT YOURSELF. (POSER)
you started to be manipulative.
And our friendship became as hard as boulders.
what happened to us?
what happened to you,
you started keeping secrets,
and hurting me was a must for you.
and stabbing me in the back.
what did I do?
why did you do this to me?
Tell me, what would you do in MY position,
with a friend like you?

One Year

when the dust has settled
and we're still standing here
in the mountain shadows
breathing desert air
finally reached the summit
not without some despair
so far we've weathered storms
and the weather has turned fair

a year has come and gone
and it really flew
sharing things in common
and different points of view
no one I would rather
tell my secrets to
looking forward to spending
many more with a friend like you

Without a Man

It's V-day
All through the day we witness PDA

Sweet hearts holding each other
Saying they'll never love another

Boxes of chocolates passed around
Heart necklaces everywhere are found

Into each other's eyes they stare
With hugs and kisses, you know love is in the air

But while the other girls hold their man so true
When I thank god at night, I thank him for you

Their relationship will break any day
I want you to know that you're my friend to stay

And yes one day we may each find a guy
Who will bring stars into our night sky

But for now let's just have fun
Because with a friend like you, I already have my sun.
