Dream

My life passes me by day by day
Hoping that one day it could change
Then I soon glance at something with such beauty
It was an angel in which I seek

The look in such eyes soon makes me realize
Just how wonderful life could be
When one day you are holding hands with me 
At night when you feel the cold air breeze
I will hold you in my arms so peacefully 

The warmth of a goddess in the one I love
Makes me feel like I am soaring in the skies above 
Glancing at those soft tender lips
Closing in closer so we can share such a passionate kiss

I could wish for nothing more
Your presence is all that I was searching for
Such an image could not be
For me to soon realize that it was just a dream
When I awake I will finally know
How life would be in the real world
Will time come and pass me by
Will I ever be able to find true love before I die
Soon I realize that I am standing under the wedding bells
Where my angel and I are exchanging our sacred vows.

Love Against Darkness

How it is to be in total darkness
Where no light shines but from the angel that tries to save me
Being sucked in from the realms of the hated and soon forgotten

How wonderful it is to see that there is still one that tries
The one that tries to save me, I wonder if she realizes
That it was my choice to be in the situation that I’m in
That no one, but myself is to blame

I am in this dark forsaken place for a reason
No just to be alone, but to be somewhere peaceful as well
A place where I won’t have to worry about anybody else
Such a paradise in which I believe in seeking

Why save somebody that is not misleading
The fact that I chose to live my life like this
Is the fact that I won’t have to deal with other problems
I don’t need to be saved so why do you even bother
I don’t want you to fall along the same road

The road I know you won’t like
And there you are, so beautiful and yet risking your life
The angel that has followed me into this dark realm
The realm in which I keep on falling with you following
I know it is hard to let me go, but for this once can you just consider

Just consider that even though you love me, it might be best to let me go
You can continue on with your precious life and let me end mine

That way, things can soon be fine
And there you go, you finally reached me
Holding me tight in your arms with tears falling from your eyes

I don’t believe it, but the light is growing more and more
I guess your love for me, is stronger than I could ever ask for

Life

Do you wonder how life is really like
Do you wonder whether what is right is really wrong
Not knowing that you are nothing more than an empty vessel

Being enslaved by the ones that you back up
The government sending numerous amounts of lifeless souls

To a war where both sides believes that they are right
To a battlefield where thousands of souls soon be deprived
Thousands dead and thousands crying

Such a life in which one lives by without denying
How such ignorance could not be ignored
How one perceives what they seem is right

How well the government did to control one's life
Not realizing at all of the ones they made cry.
Living in a life of total darkness and blackened souls
Lifeless zombies that people have become
All by the belief in what they think life is like
A life that is now nothing more than total darkness
A life not worth living without the chance of hope
Only despair falls on those that are living
Only the dark void will grasp what our lives wish to hold

Tears

I can’t help but feel this pain inside
A pain in which I never wish to be hurt by
With tears falling from my eyes
With no one there to wipe them by my side
How can I put up with such agony?
How can I put up with such grief?

All I know is that my heart is broken
And there is no one there that can help me
I’m the only one capable of overcoming what is happening
Only I can choose whether to accept what is now
Or yet choose not to accept what it is at all
It saddens me to say

Such harsh words that I thought I would have never said
The pain and suffering in which I feel
How my heart feels like it was peeled
Now I’m not alone, but yet brought another
Another that I wish I never would have got involved
One that has no reason to cry
But my stupidity brought it and I cannot deny

What has happened, happened for a reason
The tears that befalls not just me
The tears that befalls also the one that I have always wanted to see

The one that I fell in love with from the beginning
The one that change my whole life and gave it a new meaning

How it is to make her happy
Brought so much joy not only to her, but to me as well
Now things have messed up and I just cannot tell
How I can’t stand to see her cry
But yet how I don’t believe . . .
That I’m the one that made her cried

Wait For Me

It’s been too long since we last spent time together
Too long, since we last had a passionate kiss
Remembering all the fun memories that we shared
All the times in which I cherished
Such a happy moment that soon left me
In such a sorrow life that I am now living
So much pain and agony that I feel
Being scared of the worst things to come
How our relationship can soon come to a fall
I can’t take any more of these hardships
The suffering is to bearable to even speak

How I wish to be with the one
That I can no longer even see
Times are rough
And they are only going to get rougher
All that I can hope for now is patience
And that patience is now waiting for me
I am sorry for all the trouble I have caused you
But all I ask for you my love
Is for you to patiently wait for me
