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

HAVE YOU EVER?

Have you ever fell in love? 
So deep with someone 
Every time you think about him 
Makes you smile 

When he is around 
You can't hold back the feeling 
Of dying in his charming arms 
And not wake up forever 

Have you ever felt helplessly in love?
Every time you close your eyes 
You see the picture of that one you truly love 

Hanging on the walls in your heart

Love, they say is indispensable 
It can withstand a thousand fall 
For you I will would die a million deaths 
If that is how long it takes to prove I care

For I love you with every breath of my life 
And can not denie how perfect you made my world

Like a star you add beauty into my heart

Without you, I will be miserable all through my life

A LETTER TO CYNTHIA

Dear Cynthia, Pardon me to dip my pen into a ink
And pour out my feelings in black and white
The Lurking feelings I have been holding back
For years I have been lonely and sad

Walking around with an unsettled mind
I could not fight my emotions right in front of you
Dying in abject silence, yet nothing I could do
When a man is in love, he becomes broken and weak

To the alluring qualities that sums a woman's heart
Her looks, her charming smile and sense of humor
They are too inviting to look away from, this has no cure
For me girl, can you keep a secret?

I love you more than a child possibly loves chocolate
Thoughts of you have shattered my heart
They are endlessly running free inside
I sat under the moonlight

Imaging what you see
When you look up the sky past the tree
I could see a picture of you and me
Strolling down the ridges in my dream

Wherever this letter may find you
Know that someone out there cares about you
And is dying of a symptom un-diagnosed
For a reason of genuine love withhold
