STRONG LOVE






The love I have for you is so strong
I have tried to let go for so long
But everyday my feelings for you keep growing strong
Without you I have been staying awake all night
Sometime I stood at the balcony staring at the world at night
It looks beautiful yet I feel so empty without you
I have never felt like this, not until I meet you
The sun seems brighter today as I stare at the sky
But it doesn’t come close as much as my feelings for you
Every dress you wear looks really pretty on you
When you smile; you light up the whole world
Friends keep telling me am lucky to find someone like you
Truth is, I have been the lucky one not you
I have never been this happy, not until I meet you
I can’t tell how I meet you; it’s a mystery I’ve never  tried to figure out this  day
But if I have a chance to make a wish today
I will never want you to leave my sight again but stay
Be my best friend, so we can explore the world together
I can stand in the rain for hours, if I have to wait for you
I wouldn’t feel time slip away because I can never stop loving you
I love you more than you think I do
Because I have a strong feeling for you

ECLIPSE

  


Wished there is a reason why the world is cruel
Why the sun is fading away and out of reach
Hearts threatened with diseases and love forsaken
No hands the grieved to console and hold
Dressed in a mournful state of imperfection
Sand and storms the heart it cloud
No soul a song to sing to uplift the spirit
Hope sealed and incarcerated
Shadows cast out from our midst
Bridges abound, walls of peace and joy forsaken
Life goes on in obscurity and dent
Living in a world deprived of choices
Fate a remedy of an unforeseen future
And life's breached at the shore of her redemption

EVERY THING I DO




Everything I do, I do it all for you
Life for long has been resentful
But since I met you it's been completely graceful
You cover my heart with your love, that’s unforgettable
No bridges can weigh down my feelings for you
My heart is filled with your smile, everyday it’s brand new
You turned my nights into day, that's no lie
Now I can walk through the hands of time
My feelings I can no longer borrow
I now know with you the world will be beautiful tomorrow
All my life I have being searching for a heart 
For you have made my brightest dream come true
Everything I do is all for you
Because I love you more than you think I do
