I would rather die than cry
I fear my father hates me
Not sure if my mother cares
She says she loves because she has to
...

Despise the eyes with tears
Resent the heart with fears
Beaten and reluctant
To hear the repeated words
...

What makes you think my passion is the same
I feel like an undesirable burning flame
...

Heart filled with love
Heart filled with fire
To have her one dream
Her inner most desire
...

Damage has been done
Time cannot be erased
The frown you placed on her face cannot be replaced
Hurt caused by your selfishness
...

You found the door unopened
And ventured bravely without fear
Opening a new world
Changing this depressed, boring girl
...

Afterwards
She knew no love
Her heart became frozen
Unable to be melted
...

I stared in space
In hope of a new beginning
Mistakes i've made so foolishly
I cannot seem to help them
...

Most nights I stay awake
The phone might ring
Maybe a knock at my front door
Something relieving me of this misery
...

Only love can inspire the ink from my pen
Only love can remain after months of separation
Love can never be limited to words
I hope you can feel the love I have
...

The glow grows by day
And the plants make food
Flowers bloom
Lovers meet
...

I cry out like a slave being tortured
The pain is everlasting
The grave of my ancestors
Calls out my name
...

I carried my burdens to you but
But you were not there to take them
I shed my tears beside you
But you did not care to wipe them
...

Looking in her eyes I have never seen such beauty
Such innocence
Like a diamond in a rough or
Spring flowers slowly falling to the ground like the teardrops flowing fron her gloomy eyes
...

He leaned in and kissed my forehead
He whispered
Tonight my dear you will cry no more
I have seen that you have suffered
...

A soul that speaks with his eyes
And expresses with his lips
Expresses with his touch
That soulfully glides with every stride
...

Cowards are they that torture the harmless
And kill the defenceless
Powerful they feel
As they rape or children and kill or women
...

I mourn in the morning
And the mourning continues till evening
Still till night
Even a hearty smile has hidden grief
...

He yearns for a Queen
A woman, majestically distinct
A difference in her eyes
A different mind
...

My love for you exceeds the knowledge of understanding
Even I can’t seem to perceive this feeling that dwells within
Even I can’t comfort this heart
This heart that cries inconsolable tears
...
