RIGHT OR WRONG

How can we judge what is right on wrong

If we keep making decisions from our feelings

Some places are cold, while some can be extremely hot

We all living in a world we aren’t bothered after all

We all make mistakes, isn't that enough to tell a man he is not perfect

I might want to listen to the melody of a song playing

You on the field chasing all the things in heart you're dreaming

I could pray with you all through the summer

But it doesn't change the fact that I am different from you

Who wrote the laws we are following today

Can it reach out to someone out there on the street in need?

Can you be the moon and I the sun forever?

Together, we can impact the world from deep down where we stand

If one truly loves each other, there wouldn't be doubts in our feelings

Right or wrong, our choices made, affects the world we're living in

TABOO

Ever since the day I embraced my feelings for you

I listen to the stillness of my heart in the dark under the moon

Couldn't find a cure for a heart in dissolute

I couldn't stay away even if I had tried to

I waited in the rain for sunshine to lite up my fear

Of losing someone so precious and very rare

I will leave my emotions buried in a tombstone

In a world I can't find you, it’s no use wandering alone

I was told the worlds beautiful, but I wish it's not true

It's a taboo where I am from not to fall in love with someone special as you

The gods would be grieved, for they gave me their blessing

At birth and the moment I met you a fortnight

I wish I don't experience the feeling of losing you inside

Do you realize you mean more than the world and everything to me?

It's only you if someday I fall can catch me

Not the wish I asked for, but having you is so much more

A taboo will it be, if you are not part of my life

PICKING ROSES

I went out picking roses

I wanted to forever cherish you

The beauty of the morning

Is perfect with touch of the morning dew

The sun light reflecting from the east

Like a touch of gold it felt when I kissed your pretty lips

I wish the sun pauses each morning

And paint a portrait of you in my heart

The fragrance of your love is imaginable

It is spotless, can't be subdued if the world lapse

Can I plant a piece of you on the flower vase in my heart?

So you will always be there to make me smile

Wake up each morning filled with memories of you and me

For you are the reason why my life is so beautiful at sunrise
