SCARLET ROSE

Dedicated to Ah'Niyan Smileymoore 

 

Beauty like a scarlet rose

Spark a smile in every heart

You are unique in such a way

Heaven glorified the day you were made

Tender and filled with God's love

Bestow on you each day the morning dew

Your cup with blessings overflow

Now and forever more

Today, the sun stayed forever

And your joy glow forever

You are lifted above the cloud

Thus the lord command

I DON'T NEED A LOVER

I don't need a lover

But a friend that's true

Keep those thought and sweet words

For a girl you can easily woo

I have had enough of broken promises

I just need a friend who listens

Someone who appreciates a woman

Treat her warmly, caring and with pride

No need to fetch a star to prove he loves me

Doesn’t need to lie to impress me

Silver and gold can't indemnify a heart shattered

But a smile, a hug and a sincere kiss from a friend

HUG ME

Hug me; hold me till it hurts no more

Let the evening wind sweep away my tears

Let the calmness of your love ease the burden in my heart

Please don't let go, I am fragile on my own

I tried to hide the pain behind each smile

I tried to stay strong and promise I wouldn't cry

But loneliness permeates through the heart

My feelings are all locked but dying inside

This little shell's carrying the burden of the world inside

Can't curtail my emotions anymore 

They might not stand the time of time

Hug me, please don't ever let go off my hand
