I thought I had you but it seems I lost from the word go
I think I have no apology to make cause this was never meant to be
Yeah… I mean you and I
In the beginning it was all fun
It was fantastic
it was angelic
It was wow
It was all that one could have ever thought of a relationship
We were all over their mouths
And they referred to us as the perfect couple in town

Yeah it was all over before it began
The moment that you knocked onto my door
I knew that you would cost me my happiness
The moment that I let you step into my life
That’s when I went crumbling

You are:
Beautiful
Eloquent
Cute
Adorable
Good looking
Pretty
Charming
Gorgeous
Lovely
Exquisite
Stunning
Foxy
Radiant
Hot
Angelic
Alluring
Bootylicious
Fabulous
Tempting
And all the other words that can be used to describe perfection
You were the perfect icon that the public could see
But deep down inside you were:
Bitter
Imperfect
Outrageous
Deceptive
A liar
You were full of stains
And that is what you never wanted the public to see in you
yeah, the real you

I saw your outer beauty and that’s where I went wrong
I believed in love at first site
I believed that one day I our relationship would like that of Romeo and Juliet
I believed in the phrase “till death do as apart”
But you've just proved me wrong
Love is just a phrase that doesn’t make any sense without the incorporation of
Care
Trust
And loyalty

It was over before it began but I played blind all through.
Just to give you second chance
It is not that I was deaf
But I could have never let the public ruin my description of perfect and that was you
You did **** before my eyes
but i still sat calm like nothing ever happened
so unpredictable you were that you ended up stamping me right on my back
It was all over before it began
but i played blind and deaf
so as to protect my description of perfect and that was you

Are you still there.

It was six in the evening
The sun had already bid us goodbye
Darkness was approaching
As daylight was waving us goodbye
You were standing on a ledge shivering
Like a bird without a nest you were
I never believed in love at first site but as soon as I saw you I felt like you were the one

We first became associates
Then friends
Then best friends
And I don’t know how it became to happen
You became my girlfriend and at last you were my fiancé

I promised you I will offer you the world
But it seems you misunderstood these words
What I meant was that I will offer you what is within my reach
You left me broken hearted for I failed to be rich

Are you still there?
Please answer my call
Am in need of you right now
The pain of losing you is too much to bear Walking without you makes me feel bare I keep waking up each morning with you on my lips
But it’s only your name and not your kiss
Are you still there?
Am not rich but I can offer you what I have
Please come back for am still waiting for you.

Before i die...

Many people have different perspective of life
Many dreams and visions which most probably turn out to be a lie
Before I die want to live
Live to inspire lives
Live to be the voice of the less fortunate in the society
Live to be myself
Live to be the background voice which crusades for peace, love, and joy
Live and never say goodbye to my loved ones

Before I die…
I want to be brave enough
Be brave enough to face my fears
Be brave enough to stand by the truth even though it hurts
Be brave enough to tell others their wrongs even though they may end hating me
Be brave enough to face all my problems instead of walking away from them
Be brave enough to stand before a crowd and have no stage fright
Be brave enough to think out loud and know that my opinion matters

Before I die…
I want to experience true love
Many people see the end of the relationship before it even begins

Many people break up for the fear of being heart broken
Many people say that true love exist but they never go a notch higher to search for it
Before I die I want to experience true love
I want to really know if the love between Romeo and Juliet ever existed or was it just a fiction
I want to know if you can ever love a person so much that you can’t watch them suffer
I want to know if the phrase loving you till death do as apart is only a phrase used at the altar to impress the audience or is it there in real life.
Before I die I want to know if true love really exists

Before I die …
I want to stay awake
Stay awake so that I may see what others don’t see while they are asleep
Stay awake so that I may explore the wonders of this world
Stay awake so that I may watch every moment pass
Stay awake so as to secure my future
I don’t want to take a nap so that I may dream, I want to dream while am awake
I want to stay awake so as to see the world from a different perspective not as others see it
Before I die I want to stay awake.

— The End —
