LOVE IS FOREVER





My girl, its only you that I have
The bright and shining star in my life
The precious gem stored in my heart
I will cherish you forever

Forever, I'll hold you close to my heart
Lite for you a thousand candle-light
I don't want to ever see you sad
Nor spend the rest of your life lonely inside

They say love fades in the lapse of time
That nothing in life last forever
This does not apply to you
You made my world beautiful

YOU ARE SPECIAL





There is a point in time the heart is fragile
To withstand the challenges of life
A time when hope is almost lost
And faith distrust

But at that one moment
A still tiny light sparks
Fill the heart with a renew strength
The courage to tramp upon

Weeds clustering the essence of life
Flowers cultivated that blossom
At night and also by the day
Irrespective whether the sun shine

The world becomes once more beautiful
I am lucky to have a sister loving and caring as you
Rare but unique in every way
For God made you on a special day

HAPPY BIRTHDAY

IF I WERE A GIRL





If I were a girl
I will be a rose in my mama's heart
Let God be my strength and guide
Always fighting for what is right

I would rely on my conscience and in her confide
We both share same emotions and feelings
The bible tells me to guide my body with envy
Its priceless, the world will treasure me

I am not perfect and prone to mistakes
But my heart wouldn’t be compromised
If at a point in life I want to cry
I've got to shed tears for the right reasons

When a guy ask me out
I would politely smile, tell him I am preoccupied
But if the heart tells me otherwise
I'll be conscious when I am hanging out

You would say I am a man living in a world of fantasy
I don't understand how a woman feels
But I do know mankind, God gave free-will
There is nothing wrong for one to be careful

If I were a girl
I will place my looks carefully
Buy a dress that matches the heart
Walk around with a woman's pride

I will learn to be independent
Learn when to walk away and when to trust in a man
If for a reason I have doubts in a relationship
I will ask God if I am falling in love with the right man
If I were a girl
I will support the dreams of my man
Give my kids’ mother’s unfeigned love
For a woman is the virtue of her man
