Life Is Short

Life is short
A day has passed
An hour is gone
A minute is consumed
A second still counts
Months have been washed away by rain

A heartbeat is still beating
Slowly but surely 
Waiting for that moment to come
A mother,a father, a sister and a brother very weak
Longing for the day
When the heartbeat will stop

A voice saved
Last words from her mouth
Coming out bit by bit
Tears of their loved ones,dripping and drenching from their faces,really heartbroken
Torn apart,last day with her,last kiss,last word and then all shuttled down and chapter closed all because life is short..

Praise Women

Praise women!!!
Praise women 
For they raised us,
For they never abandoned us even when life was difficult,
Praise women,
For they never gave up on us,
For they are our mothers,
Our comforters,our rocks,

Praise women,praise them,
For they cared for us,
They gave us love,
Gave us hope and life,
They raised us to become better people,
They stood by is,
Even when we lost faith,
They are mothers of all professions,
Women of all trades,
Women who know best,

Praise women,praise them,
You strike a woman,you strike a rock!
Praise be unto them,
Praise them,praise them!!!

Please Let Me Know

Please let me know
Let me know when you feel what I feel,
Cause I can't describe how it feels to be me,
Loving you and having so much patience,
Please show me if I'm wrong,
Correct me at any given time,
Cause the more you correct me its the more I fall in love,
Please let me know,
When your heart is weary,I will always be there to help,
As quick as a lightning,
Always eager to assist,
Please let me know,
For I am yours now and forever...

It Hurts

It hurts
It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return,
What hurts the most is loving someone but not having the courage to let that person know how you feel,
It also hurts to be in love with someone who doesnt even know the true meaning of love,
It hurts to tell someone how much you love them and just cant get the answer,
Maybe GOD wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one,
So that when the right one comes we may be able to love and appreciate them,
It also hurts to spend your day thinking about someone who doesn't even realise that you are still alive,
It really hurts to love...

My Past

My past.
My past is not my future,
It doesn't define who I am and why,
I doesn't determine my future,
My past is all about what has occurred in my life,not of what shall happen
My past is never here to break me but it is simply here to build me
It is not meant to kill me but to keep me and revive me
My past hurts but motivates
My past shouts awareness
My past lies within me
And it won't change
Yes!I cannot change the past
But the future is in my hands to prosper
Never hold onto the past cause it will rip you off
Move on but never forget whrer you come from to know where you want to go...

I Am a Girl Who Knows Her Rights

I am a girl who knows her rights
I hear the floor creek closer and closer towards my bedroom door,
I try to stay quiet hiding under the covers of my bed,
Though I know he will find me,
I hope he doesn't hear me breathing or hardly hear my heartbeat,
Hardly I'm scared,
I'm scared what if he does like last time,
Telling me to take off my clothes and then telling me not tell,
But if I tell he will kill me,
I still want to persue my career too,
No! I will tell and all that will wait,
I deserve happiness in my life,
I am a girl who knows her rights
I am a girl who knows her rights...

Remember Me

Remember me
Remember me, not as a friend you could do without but as a friend who had your back in diffucult times,
Remember me,not as the stupidiest girlfriend you have ever had but as an assertive girl who was strong enough to defeat the pressure you gave me,
Remember me,not as a troublesome could you have but as a true gift indeed,
Remember me,for I am a part of you that no one else can be,
Remember me...
