Maybe it's fate,
Maybe it's destiny.
That losing the battle,
Was meant for me.

I tried my best,
I gave my all.
I'll push through again,
I WILL STAND TALL.

I lost the battle,
Not the war,
I'll spread my wings,
I will soar.

This is simply a lesson,
Life's timely reminder.
Plan well, stay strong.
Be the commander
Congratulations to my friend for winning :) I'd rather you win than someone else, goodluck, may god be with you :)
My daily facade is growing old,
But my spirit must not show it.
Weakness only attracts them more,
Indifference repels it.

They are the hyenas,
In my kingdom of prey.
One false move I die,
One false move they say.

I've built up my walls,
I've put on my armor.
But it only does little,
To cease all the clamor.

The truth is I'm scared,
But not eager to say so.
Now keep your distance,
Before you're 6ft below.
Yes, so I've had a partially good day and the other parts were super annoying and soon yeah, I've come up with that.
You rest your head on my shoulder
As I hold you tightly in my arms
Shielding you away from trouble
And all of this world's harm
You stare back at me
With those innocent emerald eyes
There is such a beauty in living
You make me realize

You are soft and fragile
Your breathing is steady
You've grown so much
Has it been two years already?
Two years since the first time I heard you cry
A cry out to the world letting people know "Here am I"

There you were;
Twenty-one inches, Eight pounds
My heart aches a million melodies
You are a piece of me I've finally found
I am in tune with your heartbeat
In your love I have drowned

I gave you life, you put worth into mine
Together we are bound...
"One of life's most beautiful treasures is the unconditional love a mother has for her child."
I've seen the lies,
the problem,
deceit.
I've dealt my cards,
shuffle,
repeat.
I want a difference,
drone,
all talk.
I don't do anything,
opportunity?
Just walk.

We have to do it,
We have to change.
Stand your ground,
Hope has to remain.
We laughed as we watched,
We smiled as we played.
Then suddenly came a Romeo
to surprise my day.
He asked to play,
I nodded to agree.
Little did I know,
They set it up for me.
I spoke of numbers,
He moved the options,
I chose one paper,
there popped the question.
Go with me? He had written,
I sat staring, not saying a word.
Actually shocked and yet a bit smitten.
Jeers surfaced, wolf whistles released.
My cheeks' red however, somehow increased.
My heart was pounding,
was this really true?
I guess so,
since I said yes to you.
