The ocean's breeze
Dried the painful tears away
Without a word of ache,
I dreamed of us dear
...

You gave me security
You gave me strength
You gave me hope and the will to live
You are Supermom
...

Every cut out image or my life,
A new picture is born
Every paralytic moment
One disaster reaps after another
...

Awaken in the dark
Morose and impetuous
A weakling crawling
As peculiar as it seems
...

Unprepared, unaware and imprudent
She faces her fast coming future
The sweet scent of success
Not knowing of its consequences
...

Acceptance of faith i anticipated
Perpetual scarring of faith I pondered
Eternal hope for truth I patronized
As I fade away you would recognize
...

Disrupted youth you must see
Distorted ignorance I can't be
A fragrance of lucid tomorrow
No tears, no sorrows not even screams
...

I'm a simple yet complex person
Merely a prisoner of my own passion
Magical and exemplary
For your eyes only
...

I thought liking you would come between us
Our meaningful friendship mattered to both of us
You've captured my weakness entirely
Yet you remained modest and subtle
...

He made me smile in an instant
He made me laugh by a minute
But he made me fall in love
In a heartbeat
...

You came as a surprise
A wonderful gift from above
Anxiously waiting for your arrival
The excitement prolongs
...

It was always you
Who stayed by my side
Through all the smiles and despair
The jack-of-all-trades supporter of my day
...

I follow the voices of the wind
The ebb and flow of the waves
The footprints of strangers I find
With my own direction to pave
...

I may not be perfect but I strive to be distinct and different

I may not be the best but I am exemplary outstanding
...

For every glistening tear
I swear it you will pay
For every sought fear
I bear it you will ache
...

In the dark hour of the night
It is only you I feel
My heart pounds for your touch
In your arms I get weak
...

One big fake charade
Full of pretenses and lies
Blissful days all faded
A deceiving face luring her innocent hope
...

Childish, foolish and reckless
No direction nor destination
Lounges around but never really cares
Too self-absorbed and unaware
...

You gave me your word
And i believed you
I believe and trust
Everything you say
...

I am astray beyond what I see
I am mortified with rage and fury
Wretched happiness and glory
Distort the real truth
...
