FLOWERS IN THE WIND

Thoughts of you excavate my heart

Lamps of crystal sparkle through my heart

Memories of your beauty chase the wind

Kisses and love with smile amid

Torrents of emotions swaying towards east

My heart purged with million excuses your love not to cease

I see you through the stars and the night I couldn't let go

You communion the heart, mind, body and soul

A scent of roses the night borrowed

I knelt in despair of losing these moments tomorrow

Your love flushed my heart and made her humming

The wind i climb for breath as I am submerged in you

The night sober, I could hear her whispering to you

That night my thoughts where green and he left never the same

Birds where whistling a song that night as I dance my heart out

No more lonely thoughts of cold nights in December

Flowers in the wind, that’s how I think of you all through September

My love for you is bigger than the moon and purer than a river

A MOUNTAIN SO SHORT

Have you being searching for a job for years?

Are you going through life and can barely feed for days?

Are you having breakup in your relationships?

Are you lost and can't seem to find a way back home with ease?

Are you married and barren with child for years?

Do you keep failing examinations in college?

Are you working for long and can't get a promotion at the office because you are at the edge?

Are you in your mid-thirties, and scared no one will ask your hands in marriage?

Are you in prison wrongly accused and misjudged for a crime you didn't commit?

Are you all alone neglected by families and friends you feel like suicide to commit?

Are things out of control in life you gave up hope of surviving it?

God's telling you today that He is aware of what you're going through

Close your eyes and open your heart and He will see you through

Look deep into your heart and faith you will find

That life can only hold you down in the state of your mind

For they are a mountain so short that you can climb

A WAY BACK TO YOUR HEART

In September it rained heavily and wet my thoughts and you never left

When you smile, you leave an everlasting memory in my heart

The feelings between us is so heavy, I can't let it drown

The more I tried to leave, it weigh me down

I hate myself for lacking courage to leave everything I have behind

I have many reasons why I should be strong

My heart will hurt me more if I lost the trace of you

I can't feel my tenderness since the last day spent with you

I want to let the world know I love you

Maybe someone will tell me where to find you

I wish time can be borrowed, so I can trace back your footprint

And find a way back to your heart
