I may not be the most beautiful girl,
I may not have the riches that eventually leads a man to hell.
My name may not in some's ears ring a bell,
But i am indeed an incredible damsel.

If you came into my life bcos we met on a bus,i wouldn't travel forever.
If you came into my life bcos we met in a singing competition,i would not sing forever,
If you came into my life bcos you once taught me,well then i wouldn't be your student forever.
And if  you came into my life as a result of teenage fantasy, my teen days are over!

What is it with you anyway?
Being caught up in your web hasn't given you the right to cut my days and trap my lively rays.
I wouldn't stop living because it didn't work out with you.
It only means there's one whose sky is full of hope and blue.
And tarnish not my image,for that may flip open my page of rage!
Don't even blame my actions on my age,otherwise my anger would burn.
