AM I LOSING MY MIND?



I have not been the same since I fell in love with you
In my dream I find myself kissing you
And I couldn't figure out what else to do
No one else touch my heart as much as you do
Maybe it's the reason why it’s lonely anything I am not with you
Every night spent without you, get me cold and lonely of thoughts of you
When am waking down the street, wished I bumped into you
My life has being beautiful when am with you
When I look at the mirror I see a reflection of you
Last night I dreamt  I was spending my world with you
Sometimes it's difficult to focus when I am not with you
Please tell me if am losing my mind for having feelings for you

A STRANGER IN LOVE




I meet this girl walking down the street
There was something about her; I felt it in my heart immediately I saw her
The night was heavy but I couldn't resist the guilt in my heart
Just walking by when I had a million reasons to approach her
When I looked into her eyes, I saw heaven and the beauty therein
I could see the stars smiling through her eyes
I fell in love with her despite we were complete strangers out of the blue

When she smile the virtues in my heart got attracted to her
I have never felt like this since junior high
I don't know if it is right for me to have this feeling
Or if it's wrong for me to fall in love with her
For she is a stranger I meet out of the blue


I was staring at the moon and praying in my heart
I wished the moon had stayed a bit longer a forth night
There was so much I wanted to tell her to get my feelings right
So we can get to know each other more for a start
For I have fallen in love with her, a stranger I meet out of the blue

For a moment I still felt like a kid, I was excited all through the night
Wished I had a picture of her on my cell phone
I would have stared at her all through the night
Every night I shall walk by the path where we meet 
Maybe I will catch a glimpse of her again tonight
For I have fallen in love with her, a stranger I meet out of the blue

WHY DO YOU HAVE TO GO?



I thought of a million reasons why you had to go
At a time when we were just getting along, you left my heart a hole
I thought of all the dreams we both shared
The comfort I feel anytime you are around
This is so wrong, you don't deserve this
How on earth am I supposed to let go the feelings?
The love, companionship, support and advice
Together we've worked hard in fulfilling our dreams
How can we lose you, a hero, and a brother to many?
A virtue that can never be refilled in lives of many
Thoughts of this is so confusing thinking about your departure
Damn, I am going to miss you greatly in the future
You don't have to get worried you aren't here to take care of me
I am aware that you're going to miss me
That you regret to put me through so such pain
I know you're sorry you were unable to say goodbye before it rain
I am glad you're in a better place now that we are far apart
A place where you don't have to hustle anymore
A place where there is no pain, regrets, disappointment and suffering
But with God in His heavenly abode rejoicing
Rest in peace our beloved brother
