Child, your cry reminds me of my pain
So intense, fruitless and without any gain,
In my mother's womb, I bled my last
Memories of me aborted angers me to lambaste.

I hoped to taste the joy of being born
And caressed like any other child's horn,
But mother did you ever love this child
To have denied him access to your guide?

Hope you gave me when you thought to bare this child
Little wonder I choose a mother like you as my guide,
What then went wrong to have my blood shed?
So innocent a child you gave me no chance to be loved.

On you alone, I placed all my hope and trust
In your womb I thought to avoid rust,
But mother did you hate me that much your own son
To have a harmless child suffer the scorch of abortion?

Mother, you gave me no reason for my crime
To have loved and chosen a mother like mine,
With your hands you murdered your own blood
Oh mother, why the cruelty on this child whom you never did curd?
Man's inhumanity to man

I do not know when i will leave this world,
Whether that i'm young or when i'm old,
I only hope that i meet  the God i believed in
Not as a timid man but one who is bold.
Jst lots of tinkin
Console games and animated romantic flames
It seems like you've forgotten

My lights are out at night but yours still shines bright
It feels like you've forgotten

Blank daydream evenings while your getting the drinks in
It looks like you've forgotten

Thoughts of wonder fill me, seems I've become your perminant taxi
I know that you've forgotten

2am Chinese deliveries, that's the only thing I can do to please
You've definitely forgotten

Have you forgotten that I exist?
Are you bored or tired?
Do you think it's all worth the risk?
Is it time that I retired?

Because all I'm doing is sitting here, waiting for you
All I'm doing is lying here
Waiting for you
This paranoia I have found
Is nagging so loudly in my ear
How can I ignore it?

But I'll be the bigger man
And act like everything has gone to plan
Please don't go back to neverland
I prey you havnt forgotten
Me
I was all alone, me myself and I
You came in an instant before I die
Like a drinking glass my heart was fragile
Broken by many guys in a long file.

It is only now that I met you, dear
In just so little time you took my fear
You make me feel special, I cry rivers
Just the mere thought of you gives me shivers.

Surely, I like you too I must admit
But sad to say I just cannot commit
A break from all the pains I really need
I hope all these things you will surely heed.

Again, I will tell you I like you too.
Dear, wait for me because I will love you.
Full heart to full heart,

                                   Clear quiet mind to clear quiet mind,

                                                 Ocean to Ocean.

                                            Blossoming with Light,

                                                  The Pink Lotus

Resides in Readiness

Patient, Happy.
