POETRY IS LIKE MUSIC




Poetry is like music, it influence the inner thoughts of a man
It's the unsung words written in the heart of every man
There is a voice unseen which speaks to you and me
The same way the atmosphere submerged the body and mind

It flows in the vein and run through the brain
It sees through the heart, but the eyes sees only when it rain
If you listen, you'll find out the heart talks to you every second
Sometimes it whisper to your ears to ascertain you have heard

Just like music poetry is the feelings lock inside
It's the heart trying to tell the world that everything will be fine
Poetry is the heart wanting to share what she sees through you
She sees the fear and hate the world is going through
She sees the love and joy of a man and a woman in full

She understand the emotions of a mother to a son
She is nub because you never took time to listen but let her trust run
You are occupied with the burden of a world you can't influence
You never talk to her about the break ups, disappointments and pains 

She has always been with you, for she understand what you are going through
She wants you to trust her so she can also trust you
You've got to listen to the voice of the night and the silence of the sea
Listen to the wind, you will find there is a voice hidden inside you and me
For poetry is an unspoken word that wants to be free

YOU ARE BEAUTIFUL





You are beautiful, that I know is true
God was cautious and mindful when He created you
He gave you a hug and blessed you with His love
He gave you a piece of His beauty and calmness of a dove
As bright as the stars are it can't be compare to your smile
As far as the sky is to man, so do your glory fly
Your smile is as beautiful as the morning dew
It got that softness the heart can't resist of being subdue
Your lips are divine, it caress the body, mind and soul
Your eyes has a foresight of confidence and trust
For if life is aged, your tenderness will not be lost
When we met I knew my heart will no longer fall or be broken
The eyes foreseen your beauty and my heart completely taken
The lamp in my heart will forever burn for you
You are beautiful like an angel that I was knew

WILL YOU WAIT FOR ME?




Will you wait for me if I travel to the stars?
It's being long I wished to fulfill my dreams
I am going on a journey through the land of snow
So I can get you something worth more than gold
Though I can make it back in September
But can't seem to get all the things your heart desire
Crystal falls where I am going, want you to forever smile in your heart
I will travel through the valley of time
For you I am going to become a better man

Will you wait for me if I can't make it till December?
If I tell you am still chasing after my dreams
Will you keep your love all for me?
Until I hold you once again in my hands
Kiss your lips and feel the softness of your hands
I want to hold you in my heart while we walk by the beach at dawn
And light a lamp to keep our feelings inside warm
Stay with you forever together and make our world beautiful
Will you wait for me?
