TOO MUCH TROUBLE

Hope it aren't too much trouble
To ask you on a date
I want to make it up to you
Did you know I have tried?

Fruitless efforts to keep away from you
It froze my heart anytime I look into your eyes
It gets me wondering if I am out of my mind
Hide my feelings within a wrinkled smile

While the night is spent in regret
Pray for courage a next day
Its awful when I think of my ordeal
Why I keep falling in love with you

Its obvious I am no match for you
For you are amazingly beautiful
To get used to you will take forever
It's worst that I don't have a clue

THERE WAS A TIME

 

There was a time
The human mind bore consciousness
Beauty of living a resourceful life
Of the mind free of conjugation

A world perfect 

Flowers tendered in the garden
Trees growing as high as the sky
Sunset kisses the rose as the morning lie

Clouds were made of dreams
A good life for all sundries
Summer lasted longer in the heart
Families rejoicing forever

I remember mom and dad's loving hugs
The thoughts of catching a rainbow
Thoughts of running down the field chasing butterflies
Laying on the grass watching the stars

It could be extremely dark when the light's out
Somehow I knew I would catch fireflies 

Reflecting on my dreams
Memories I could never trade

LAST ROMANCE

I tried to imagine life without you
What I saw broke my heart
This troubles the heart really bad
I never had the chance to make things right

I want to spend my world with you
Everyday I am hungry for your love
But the light went out, thoughts falling from the sky
I couldn't see, my vision hidden in the fog

I am scared
If the heart will ever get a chance
To be with you forever
Hold each other close when the wind blows

If you knew the truth that one day we're going to die
Will you kiss me like you've never done before?
It hurts my feeling everything we had will be gone
We don't deserve this, why is destiny cruel to us?

No matter what, I refuse to share my regrets
With the rest of the world
You're a big part of my life
For you, I will never say goodbye
