It all started with..
"Watch your step when it comes, to finding true love.."
Oh girls like me may slip and fall,
If we don't dream so carefully i thought..
Well I'm a mermaid on the rocks with no feet at all..
Yet I'm running scared and I don't know, where to go..

But it's kind of exciting
I love the rhythm that flows,
in my writing
And you've got a hold,
On my rhyming,
I don't wanna let this, break..
(Oops)

See I love you,
how your 4 lettered name rolls off my tongue too,
I wanna dance to this song too,
I wanna be your day break now

There's a film in class which I think you'd like..
Well I'm just saying that because,
It's a rom com gangsta black&white;
Oh we're a silent film ourselves with lines of poetry as our speech..
And you're the heartbeat behind every piece I write and breathe

So can I stay for longer?,
I've been through heartbreaks before, & I've come out stronger
But you're not a heartbreak,
You're a Wonder..
A Scorpio Wonderland of stars..
Oh I love 'ya'
And I've got secrets to whisper at midnight,
I wanna see London light up only through your eyes
I'll be your special friend if you think that's alright..

It all started with;
A dreamer falling in and out of love..

But I'll be on the edge of the world with you if you ever wanted time to ever stop..
Hope you like this one, quite uplifting I believe..
If i could get my time back
In this world of wonder, I would
But if God wants me to be one of his flock
In the promise paradise, I should

I've been your companion
Since you're a little minion
Taught you the basics
and eventually, how to live life full of sh*ts

Together with your mother
We traveled the world full of wonder
Little by little, you've grown to ponder
Creating memories we'll cherish forever

But as the world seems so perfect
Problems in our life started to inject
I'd known though that this day will happen
So before this day's sad finale
I want to assure that you'd understand true life's lessons

If you've ever felt alone in this world
Just remember the person who'll be there for you instead
The special someone would always be there
Every time, everywhere

I know it's hard to say goodbye
In times we exactly don't know why
But, Child
You know how much i want you to take care
Cause the world can be fascinating
But i'll can hit you until you start grieving

In your life i served as your father
The one who loved you and your sweetest mother
But we all have the time when we needed to go
Leaving each and everyone we'd know
But don't worry dear cause we'll see each other again
In the paradise of the Almighty God, we just don't know when
People are aware that there could be a time when someone needs to leave even in the time of delight. Saying "goodbye" one last time. But the word doesn't seem right. It should be "see you soon",  you know why?  Cause God won't let the love of the family, friends, or special someone be separated by death, especially in heaven.

I am an old friend of bruised knees and bathroom floors,
exhaling until the chest is empty and body no longer breathing;
only absence lives here now. Cold stone tiles,
so we meet again: spilling secrets into each other’s mouths
until we see the light of dawn, we whisper
with a hope of being heard, yet fear of being listened to.
For weeks I have been swallowing metaphors like honey,
gulping down apologies for breakfast,
biting my tongue until the taste of forgiveness fills me –
for once my throat is not made of molasses.
There is a reason why our hearts began to curl like fists
and we aimed them at ourselves, because after all,
self-love has always been the most important thing.

A
a smile hides so many secrets,
so much pain,
so many people who always thinks you're the one to blame

whether it be you trapped in a cage society calls school
or at a place set out to be a loving zone
called your home,

but, yet I stay strong and as the day
swings along i acknowledge
the uncertainty and curiosity of knowing who
looks behind the smile I give everyday
and just to let the depression slowly

sway away.

i hope you enjoyed ***

with a kiss i could absorb your soul
& with a touch you could heal me
Let me say thank you
Thank you to all the cold faces
  without a home to sleep in
To all the stray cats wandering dark alleys
  empty of everything but our trash
Thank you  to a world that would rather
  be blind than compassionate
Thank you to all the intelligent, god fearing
  men who refuse to give up on war
To all our children who will die out in the
  battlefield just to keep grave diggers
    and empty promises in business
Thank you to a world that sees more value
  in profits than in lives
After all the earth is overpopulated and the
  rich could never be too rich
Thank you for the illusion of freedom
Thank you for hiding slavery in plain sight
Thank you for throwing out more than
  enough food to feed the hungry
Thank you for all the empty houses and
  overcrowded shelters
Thank you for this world full of ****...

Thank you...

Because out there somewhere, hiding in all
the cracks and crevices of all your filth
Beauty is hiding and it is not alone
Hope is planting its seeds and they are all
  trying to save you  children
And teach them a better way to live.
To take the blinders off their heads and let
  them see you for the monster you truly
     are
A world gone mad with greed, a world that
  has  replaced its hearts blood with cold
     steel and bank notes
Thank you to a world that is running out of
  time while perpetuating the lie that
     everything will be fine
Thank you to the end we cannot know
Will there be money in the bank with no
   one to spend it
Or will there be poor people with beautiful
  hearts and more than enough love to
     share
Scars remind us where we've been, but they don't have to dictate where we're going.

but see, there is strength in being gentle. when you are humble and patient and filled with love, the world gives back to you. i know there are those who would use my kindness as an excuse to be cruel. i know that there are situations where teeth and fists and fire are the only solutions. but so much in this world opens up when you take a moment to ask even the grass what it feels like to be in such a large family. i will take those who walk on me. there are hundreds of others who grow alongside me. there is much to learn from the shy softness that those who are all bitterness will never get to see.
