I WILL NOT FORGET

Thank you all for the warm birthday 

Wishes and prayers

I looked down the years

Through trials and difficulties

The moments I fell ill

How miraculously I got healed

On this sacred journey of life

Friends and love ones

Have come and gone

I have met reality first hand

Thank you for giving me the privilege

To share my world with someone unique as you

If you search my whole heart

You will find out I am nothing without you

Thank you for everything

God used you to nurture me

The best way I could ever be

For this I will never say goodbye

Today is a special day

Groomed with beautiful memories

You are a blessing which filled my soul

I could not stop to smile

SELF RIGHTEOUS

I am not talking about self righteousness 
Of living a false life 
This is not about your achievements 
The model of car you drive 

 It got nothing to do with your pride 
Whether it is sold or safely stashed 
In your eyes, how can I see the light? 
If you are always hiding in the dark 

 All I want is someone there for me 
Whom got no grudges to hold back 
But the passage of friendship see 
Of feelings that does not lack 

If you know me well 
Everything about me you can tell 
Not a friend with a false dream 
But someone that is open and real

NUMBER ONE

When I was a teenager
I used to get all dressed up
Put on the best of cloths
When me and girl are hanging out

Wanted everything to perfect
I only got one golden moment
I knew if I look good
No one else would stand a chance

Back then love was not stereotyped 

A guy needs to be smart
If he wants a attract the right girl

Conscious of the things she loves

Just so that he can impressed her 

He writes a romantic love note
A token of gift to show he appreciates her
He would not take her love for granted

But nowadays, love has lost her essence
So much frustrated relationships 

Every where I turned, I see broken homes
It is frustrating that no one seem to care

When a man appreciates and love a woman
Winter never comes between his feelings
True love can withstand any weather 

As long the heart and mind is one

Can you truly look your girl in the eyes?
With not a charming but sincere smile
Can you say girl, I will always be by your side
You are my number one
