BE CAREFUL





 

Be careful how you treat me for a fool
Someone might treat you the same way too
I gave away my heart, feelings and my all
Out on the cold I held on, never let my feelings fall

You nagged at everything I do, I never said a word
Came home late, gave odd excuses, yet I was calmed
All of a sudden, I am not good enough anymore
But do you remember when your were broke throughout the fall?

Who took care of your needs all these time?
When you were sad and lonely at night
Who kept you warm, support your dreams till it became so bright?
Love you like no one ever had and lite a smile in your heart

I don't believe you allowed time fly so fast
You forgot all the sacrifices made and support
Don't take me for granted because I care about you
In my heart, I still love and don't want to lose you

DOOR OF LIFE




Walking by the hallway, I came across a door that read eternal
I was skeptical at the beautiful inscription boldly written on it
I held on the knob and pushed the door opened
A white light flashed through my eyes so bright

It flashes away the burden in my heart
I saw someone like an angel beckoned me  in
He showed me all the good things I could have in life
He told me its possible to have a new life

If only I repent in my heart, let regret and hate go away
Open my heart to allow God's guidance in life's journey each day
I remembered, mom used to read me a story in the bible at bed time
The scene keeps flashing on my head, like I was still nine

I remembered those words vividly, you can't make it on your own without God
So I went down on my knees praying for the grace of God
I woke up sweating, I was restless all through the night
Then it struck me, that I can't make it going through life the wrong path

Not without leaning on the promises of God
So I sat up the rest of the night praying
I couldn't ask for more, but to have an eternal life
God's angel, watching over me day and night

FEELINGS FOR LOVE




Water run down and the stream overflow
It filled my heart with thoughts over you
My heart don’t wait till sunset
Always she falls in love with you
Every time it rains, 
It submerges my feelings for you
If tonight the sky don't bear a star
I will search for you both near and far
