WHEN YOU LOOK AT YOUR MAN



When you look at your man
Tell me what you see
Is he good enough for you?
Can take care of you and support your dreams

His he a man that makes you smile?
And treat you like a queen
Do you trust him with your whole heart?
That he is the man you deserved

Has he got the quality of your ideal man?
Or his he a half-baked man?
Not good enough and can not satisfy your needs
You nagged at him for being jobless 

Fed up taking care of him
Do you always sneak around his things?
Hoping to catch him cheating
Are you marrying him because he is rich? 

You think money can buy you happiness
Stop chasing your fantasies 
Searching for an ideal man
A good relationship is not a fairy tale 

You make a wish and your dreams come true
You have to put your heart at stake
And let your feelings guide you
No man is perfect, this much is true but it does not 

Mean you would not find a man good enough for you
You have to be willing and be patient
If you want to get the best out of a man
You might get into a quarrel or fight 

But do not let it get over your head
Be nice to him if you to every day 
And in time what a fine man he will become
You have to let down your pride

And try to reason with your man
Believe in him, his dreams and vouch for him
In time you will find what a great man you have got
For true love comes with some sacrifice

SAVING THE BEST FOR YOU



All this years in my heart I have been holding you
The love I have can't fade away for you
The day looks strong but I am fragile without you
I keep seeing your smile in my dreams
Never had I been so fond of someone dearly
Mom's a role model, you a guardian angel
One can search the meaning of love on the internet
But you've got to have the feeling your heart inherent 
You've got to be in love to understand the feeling
How two hearts can come to leave as one
God must have had a special interest in you
Stars smile brighter when I am around you
For God is saving the best for you

DON'T JUDGE ME



You might see me hustling on the street
Don't judge me for who I am
You don't know what I have been through
No Man is perfect in this world
I might look irresponsible for not having a decent job
I might not be as successful as you are in life
It doesn't mean I don't have the personality of a hardworking man

You might see me relaxed and all dressed up
Smile when I am hanging out with friends
It doesn't mean I don't have problems as everyone does
I can't help it if my feelings are not locked inside
Though we all have secrets bugging a man’s heart
But sometime we find courage to pour the feelings out

I might be accommodating and jovial when you see me around
It doesn't mean I am better than you or everyone else
Am just trying to live life the best I can
Smile when I had to, cry when I have to
I will never change me to please anyone
The world got to accept me for who I am
Don't judge me for being me; for I am all I've got
