NO MORE WAR NO MORE TEARS

War is destroying lives everyday

Millions of people are homeless today

Children are suffering 
Dying from starvation and rejection

Life is falling short as God's ultimate creation

The world which was once a beautiful place

Is ruthlessly despise by the selfishness of man
Millions of dollars are spent fighting wars

Families are lacking basic needs of health care
Quality education, pipe-borne water, and shelter
If we destroy the luxury of life's existence

What is the gain of putting lives in perpetual bondage?

Must we be slave to our personal gains and ambitions?

Neglect the laws of the universe we are living in

We have to put a stop to injustice brought upon mankind

We have to start appreciating one another

This world would be heaven on earth if well taking care of

Let us stop the killing and wastage of life resources

Let us kick againag war in our neighborhood

So there would be no more tears

I WANT TO BE FREE

I want to be free like a bird

I want to fly away and explore the world

I cannot achieved my dreams if I am confined

I want to reach the sun and feel it burnt

I want to have a taste of what life is made off

I want to fly over the sea 

Catch a glimpse reflection of me

The world is huge
It can accommodate all the wishes in my heart

I want to touch the grasses 
Lay a nest on an apple tree

I want to go all the places my heart has been dreaming of

Fall in love on the spot where my heart reside

I want to chase all my dreams

Never let them fly away from my reach

I want to flow with the winds 
And let her lead me

I want to fly higher 

And higher until I reach the sky

I want to be free for a life time
Achieve my heart most desires ahead of time

Spread my wings and fly away

Whistle a graceful tune each new day

I want to be free

A WISHING STAR

Last night I went fetching for a wishing star

I wanted to give you something special

And wanted all my wishes to come true

I caught a star so bright; it was smiling back at me

It reminds me of the star I saw the night I meet you

It stroked me that my biggest wish was coming through

All I have ever wanted is to spend my whole world with you

This is why am always fond of you
