JUST THE WAY YOU ARE



 #Valentine #Poems #AkanUdofia
Dedicated to Kelvin Eshun... With Love from Kristina Oheneba 



I love you just the way you are
I am not looking for diamond or crystal in you
I am not in love with you because you are handsome
Wealth got nothing to do with the way I am feeling

When I look into your eyes I see someone special within
It clings deep into my heart when I first set eyes on you
There is something unique and special that's found in you
There is no need to hide my feelings behind the curtain

You've got a soft heart; your thoughts are genuine to nothing
Every night I want to hold you in my arms
The reason I keep seeing you in my dreams
Tomorrow, to the world might be just another day

But to me it’s another privilege to be with you
When you smile, it lights up memories of a lifetime
No one touches my heart the way you do
Everything about you is remarkable, it's just the way you are

DEAR STEPHANIE

Dedicated to Stephanie with love from your brother... Amoak Abd Derrick







Of all the good memories I have had

Nothing comes close to our childhood

The tenderness of your love taught me how to care

I was selfish as a child, now a man with a heart the world to share



You where dad’s favorites

In no time you also became mom’s favorite

Always trying to beat me on our way back from school

Your pretty little smile tells so much about you



I think you were born the same day God gave birth to the sun

Must be the reason why at home I feel like the last born

Besides being pretty, you knew how to make my worries fly

Got me out of trouble, I was too weak to tell a lie



Sometime when you pretend you don’t care

It get scared when I get teased by my friends

We were perfect together, everyone could tell

My sister, my best friend, for you I will always be there



In Tamale, I am as proud to be a brother of a princess

Everyone we knew seem to fall in love with you

Oh Stephanie, I am glad we spent a good time together

Wish you the best of life and hope someday you fulfill your dreams

LOOK AT THE SUN TODAY

#Valentine #Poems #AkanUdofia




The sun today reminds me of the day we first met
It was cloudy; I felt the wind whispering your name
My heart paused because I was so excited to meet you
It was the longest day I've ever had
Maybe it’s because the sun stayed out late

Gave me a chance to spend time with you
Have you ever wanted a Christmas present so bad?
You stay up late to catch a glimpse of Santa on Christmas Eve
I've been having that feeling over and over since I meet you
Never wanted you to leave my sight again

Birds where whispering a tone that day
The melody is like a tone of our favorite song
I think they were trying to tell me something about you
Love can be felt for eternity, if we have feelings for each other

That's why two hearts can become as one
The best day of my life was the day I met you
Because you are the reason I believe in miracle
I am having a beautiful day all because of you
