Long Gone

It was not my will to live you alone,
fate had my life gone,
how can I gain you back?
when my life is out of luck.

Sweet days,sweet moment,
keeps my heart in torment,
Oh,too long for me to see,
your love you showed in the sea.

Days are parting us away,
love makes me wait at bay,
but all is always in vain,
when you are not around,there is nothing to gain.

Sweet love, does it have to end like this,
letting our planned marriage go amiss,
you terrorists,please let me go,
I have a ground to mow.

Love In Disguise

You wait
I will gain weight
You will stand at the gate 
Watching my gait

You might die 
After seeing my dye 
Gaining me back is no hope 
Even if you seek help from a pope

I dreamt of acting with you in Holly wood  
Lost in  our hilarious mood
Thought of buying us a duvet 
Having a night out eating buffet

Dumping me was the only answer
To get a life time sponsor
It is worth dating a skater
Than marrying a traitor

A skater can earn low
But his love is more
So worthy than a sponsored man
Who knows nothing but a fan

You will attempt to text or even call
And offer to drive me to the mall
But I will ignore you
And accept the request of the few

The day you will hear the bell ring
And hear the members of the choir sing
You will realize our lost love,but it will be too late
Since our relationship will have been decided by fate

You will cry in your pillow
Skipping your breakfast of Milo
Just of a stupid mistake
It will put your life at stake

What will I do?Nothing
I will just see you suffering
What shall I say?
Nothing...

Come back into my arms 
Before there are alarms 
I am ready to forgive
Only promising to let the seed of our love achieve

Though you caused me pain
Sharp as the window pane
I just let it go
Preparing the ground to mow

This time let us be serious
And promise never to be furious
About my silly mistakes
Just be a prince charming 
And I will be a Cinderella

Death,Please Have Mercy

Why does death have to come?
Can we just stay a live?
Without having to test death
You leave me with sores
Deep within my soul
Death,please have mercy on this generation
Oh,please...
All we want is a free-stress life
Leave us alone you death
To spend our entire life on earth.

You bring sorrows to our life 
Without having solutions to our worries
Oh,you death
Can we just have a peaceful life?
You have taken all I know 
Including my kins,leaving me in the streets
Now I am somebody unknown
I am so shocked by your cruelty.

You strike without knocking
Happy when people mourn
Excited when caskets are lowered into the ground 
Why do you have to invade our joyous moments
leaving us orphaned,widows ,widowers
Have pity on human race
Oh,death could you just take a leave or a long holiday.

I Am Doomed

Did  I ever have to be like this
I'm besieged
My lambs are born speckled
My wife goes to the spring at night
When the moon is high
What shall I do 
Summer is approaching
I have to go away from home fast
To look for herbal boughs
Before the day arrives
To cure my impotency
Tried all efforts to straightened my arrow
But all in vain
My voice is silent
Since I am doomed for good
No play for me
No seeds to sow
Surely,I am doomed

Hearing my wife scream
Not because of fear 
But because of excitement
I  have to cover my head
And block my worried thoughts
I am doomed!

Labour pains shouts are heard from people wearing white coats
A progeny is brought into life
What a useful house help I am 
Bringing towels for all
For a progeny whose trace is unknown
I am doomed
When will my fence get fully repaired
I have bought all kinds of wires
But all have no use since My fence is totally broken
Oh,I am doomed!

I vowed never to let her go
As I am married to her
I am a slave to this love
I am doomed
