Freedom

Though I'm not in pride,
I feel like I have been used,
My name is always said,
For I know I have been abused.
The leaves are falling now,
My heart is pounding hard,
I need to be sheltered,
But I always seem to lay the wrong card.
The dark should be light,
My dreams should be bliss,
While I depart from my sorrow,
I know that will never be missed.
The sun begins to shine,
While the darkness vacates,
I now have my freedom,
Which I shall never hate.

Separation Among Childhood

As my heart weeps for love,
I began to feel blank, 
As my eyes began to glow,
My body wants to vacate.
Childhood went by too fast,
For the young years are through,
As I lay in a dreary dungeon,
I now have to start new.
Childhood was sweet,
There was a bound between two,
For now we have departed,
I have to decide what to do.

Love Was Fond

As my eyes close,
My heart is content,
I begin to feel blessed,
knowing my true love has been sent.
As the dark clouds withdraw,
The clear sky began to shine,
I feel like a princess,
Knowing that the prince became mine.
A piece of me was gone,
But not anymore,
I found my missing half,
What else could I ask for?
My heart is radiant,
Whle I am with my love,
We can soar into the sky,
Just like the beautiful doves.
As I think of my love,
I know my dreams have come true,
You will always have me by your side,
My sweet, sweet baby -  I Love You!

Hanging On

While I seek for love,
My heart becomes pure,
I want to be pampered,
For all I need is that cure.
My mind is set for reaching my goal,
I have to find my prince,
The one who can capture my soul.
As I look around I tend to find my shadow,
Trying to follow the right steps,
For all I feel in me is hollow.
While I step closer to the light,
My stomach begins to feel queasy,
I reached my goal,
But it sure wasn't easy.
While someone new is now in m y arms,
I feel complete,
Never wanting to depart,
For it was us who had to meet.

Peace

I proceed to be still,
My feelings evolve like rain,
Times may be hard,
But all I want I can't gain.
 I see the wind through my eyes,
The vision was so clear,
For now I need a guardian,
One who will take away my fear.
I proceeded to feel anxious,
Those feelings began to leave,
My mouth opened slightly,
For now I can believe.

Love At Sight

I hear a gentle voice,
While my heart began to beat,
I proceeded through the soft, white, clouds,
For then we shall meet,
Our hearts started to unite ,
While we glared up at the sky,
Observing the stars constructing shapes,
Never longing to say good-bye.

Love

Guys were so complicating,
As each of them would vacate,
Trying to seek the right one ,
But always seemed too late.
After days and months side by,
My heart became bruised,
Just wanting to cry.
Brick walls began to form,
The heart was sheltered,
But not anymore.
The brick wall began to shatter,
The lover came in,
Love was so powerful,
Contentness was then to begin.

Tomorrow

While I hear the sound,
My eyes begin to cast away,
I shall not reply to it,
For the joy in my heart shall not stay.
As thy thoughts arise,
I shall begin to weep,
The night will pass,
But our memories I ought to keep.
Tears of joy,
Tears of sorrow,
Weeping may be present,
But always look upon tomorrow.
