A Noble Love

For all the girls in the world, we deserve nothing less for we are fearfully and wonderfully made by an awesome God…

The night is young and so are we
I’m captivated by your beauty
Desire starts to well up inside me
But I have to fight if a gentleman I want to be

You’re beautiful inside and out
Oh I can’t believe my luck
So I must try not to screw this up
For I really like you and its turning into love

You could’ve better but you chose to be with me
I still don’t understand what in me you see
But I thank God nonetheless for sending me an angel
I just know inside me, I’ll never want another

You are perfect with your imperfections
I must show you I have noble intentions
For you are a princess from the heavens
You deserve the best and nothing less

Women are from Venus

Beauty is not about your body size,
Or what color is your eyes,
It’s more than just the style of your hair,
Or whether or not your skin is fair.

It’s never measure by the make-up you wear,
Nor by the clothes that’s purely made of fur,
It’s all about if you feel you are
And not by hearing it from someone in a bar.

Simplicity is beauty as I always say,
No need for dermas nor cosmetologist to pay,
Although it may sound a bit cliche,
“It’s what’s inside that counts at the end of the day.

Letter for the Prince #2(Exsomania)

Wondering how you’re doing tonight,
And if I ever cross your mind.
My eyes still hurt from crying all day
Even though it’s been a couple months away.

You did not only broke my heart,
But also tore every single dream I had.
Because of you I find it hard to trust,
And gave up searching for a love that’ll last.

I lived an empty horrid life,
As if somebody didn’t left but died,
I mourned and grieved each time I get,
From morn till dusk, from sunrise till sunset.

I can’t pretend that I’m not hurt,
And that I don’t do my best to forget,
Still loving you wasn’t my regret,
But all the mean things that I’ve said

Fading Sparks

A room filled with blank sentences,
Awkward silence and false pretences.
We used to burst out in laughter,
And I get excited to read next chapter..

Tapping hands on the table to pass the time,
Barely looking each other in the eye,
A million words was stuck in my mind
But strength to say them, I couldn’t find.

It wasn’t how I pictured the scene
It was supposed to make me happy as a queen,
But all I have are these lengthy pauses,
And a heart broken in a million pieces.

Tell me has the clock struck twelve?
Has the spell just ended?
How do I get back that magic spark?
I miss it badly and I want it back.

Constellation Dreams

Every night, I stare at the stars in the sky,
Wondering what it feels like to be where they are.
People looking up to see how bright they shine
Without burning their eyes like the sun.

My dreams are just as high
To reach them, I’ll have to fly
I’ll have to jump off a cliff,
I’ll have to swim down deep
But I’ll do what I could to win,
Anything to make my dreams real.

It ain’t gonna be a walk in the park
I might even get lost in the dark
So I’m going to keep my light on
Till I reached the place where I truly belong.

Soon when I’m wearing my crown
I’ll thank you for always putting me down
If you didn’t break my heart,
I wouldn’t have reached this far…

Post-Valentine Misery

I had a perfect date last night,
Full of roses, chocolates and candlelight,
He was as dreamy as a prince could be
But I still wish that it was you with me.

He held my hand warmly and tightly
Leaned in over and kissed me gently
But there wasn’t any fireworks
I guess my heart’s still hooked to yours…

I used to think we were in a fairy tale,
And your prince charming that has come to whisk me away
But then the clock struck twelve and the music faded
Curtains closed before our climax started

Was it all just a dream now,
I need to understand somehow
Need to peak inside your mind
And see if I’m anywhere in sight.

Unreplied

Was I just dreaming these past few weeks,
For right now I cannot even feel that you exist
Surrounded by roses and chocolates in boxes
All I really want is a response for my messages,
I thought we were singing the same song,
But then the lyrics came out wrong
Why the sudden change of heart,
I thought we have both made a pact,
Am I to look like a fool at the end of this story,
Must I leave now to avoid feeling sorry
Confusion rules over my mind
I wonder if love I can ever truly find
If not you, then tell me who
My heart is cold and oh so blue…

Deafening Silence

I have always love the fact of having the spotlight on me, on being the center of talk and attention, but not this time. Not when the other party involved is someone I care deeply about. I used to be very concerned of my reputation, my image and my name but it wasn’t me that I am worried about now but it’s him.
We haven’t been friends for long to know how he is to this kind of rumors, and so I am worried, very worried. I do not want people saying things about him. Before I thought the only ones talking were three people and I wasn’t bothered at all but as time passes, it got more complicated and many people started talking and I got scared. I’m scared of the words shooing the one guy that has shown me enormous kindness…

So for him who is oblivious, for him who scares me to death of his response, for him who I care for and does not want to say goodbye to…

I don’t know how this story will unfold,
I don’t know if your hand I should hold,
Tell me, are we still okay?
Will we see through the end of day?
It scares me these words might push you away,
When all I want is for you to stay
My heart is pounding, going thump thump thump
I can’t get any words to come out right
Your silence deafens my very world
It makes me feel like your turning cold
Don’t let me shiver, don’t make me wait
Give me an answer, tell me what is our fate.
Slowly I’m dying, emotions unraveling
Am I going to stand alone,
Or will you say to me that you will never be gone?

What my heart screams in Silence

Sometimes in life there are words that are better left unsaid…

Remember the first time we went to see a movie,
We’re wearing white and it was as perfect as it could be,
You were sitting next to me and I find it hard to speak
You whisper in my ear and slowly I become weak
Looking in my eyes, you make me want to melt
This feeling’s getting stronger than I have ever felt

It’s so easy to fall for you
So easy to wish that you’d want me to
You got it all right and more,
There’s nothing else that I could ever ask for…

I fake a laugh each time you try to make a joke,
I try to make it last every time we take a walk
How can you be so damn oblivious
When anyone with eyes can see its obvious
I wanna be yours,,,

Wrath of Aphrodite

Always there will be three of us but it is only his face that I could remember. Like a wonder changing from time to time, so does my fondness for him, confusing, consuming and irrevocable. So here goes something I have wrote for him a few months back:

Going out and having fun but never called a date,
Never lovers but are possibly soul mates,
Exchanging playlists and talking heart to heart
I do not love you yet it shall be painful when we part,
Binded by friendship and cursed to be chained to thee,
I wonder will it ever come a time that you shall see,
I will say yes to you, all you need to do is ask.

I cannot look you in the eyes, not because I do not care
It’s just that I’m worried my heart might get entangled by your stare
I cannot let you see inside my soul
I simply must not allow myself to fall
I’m afraid my emotions might make you turn away
If what my heart is feeling, I try to say.

Will I ever learn to tell you No?
Drop my hands to the side and go,
If this feeling of mine shall continue to grow
Shall I keep it buried deep beneath the snow
Or will it be alright to say “I love you so”
