SORRY


Stars brighten up the sky at night,
The sun lightens up the day.
Joy in the hearts of many,
Both adults and children are rejoicing.

Stars were meant to appear in the night,
The sun was meant to appear in the day,
But the sky was cloudy,
And the rain took away the beauty of the luminous stars.

Destiny has brought us together,
Making us walk in the path of life,
Friendship is sweet when filled with goodies,
But it won't last long if there are persistent times of trouble.

Although I sometimes, say hurtful things out of negligence, At times I nonchalantly do things that irk you,
Please know you really mean the whole world to me,
Your existence gives me the joy that keeps me moving.

I never assured you that there would be no tears in your eyes,
But I did assure you that you wouldn't shed them alone.
I never assured you of the absence of problems,
But I did assure you that I was not going to leave you to solve them alone.

Heaven has declared us friends and now,
Neither humans nor life issues can tear us apart.
Although none is perfect,
You're unique just the way you are.

THE WOMAN IN MY DREAM


Danoxford:
   You're a replica of the woman I see in my dream,
That shines to my world like a gleam,
But how do I walk up to you with a theme?
When you're in the company of your team.

With courage I jumped into your sea,
I don't care anymore about what they see,
All that matters is to make you smile,
And not just be the one that comes once in a while.

Though we're not entangled in abyss of affections,
But in my heart your love grows.
I don't know how to tell you I'm falling despite your imperfections,
All in the name of rescuing our friendship before it flows.

Preticrystal:
I remember so clear when you at first I saw
The glitters in your smiles
They are like incense with Sweet flavor
To be yours  I will travel miles.

But all this was only on my mind
All my friends say I have a crush
So for feelings  I became blind
Only to feel your friendship in a hush.

I waited so long for your love moods
All through the night I name our kids
How long will it take you to make a move
Perhaps these yearning for you is a torment I am bound to feel.

Danoxford:
  How I wish my heart could speak,
How I wish my thoughts were more audible than a squeak,
How I wish my feelings could be felt at their peak,
How I wish my mind can push out what it saw before it becomes weak.

 So sad that my feelings couldn't walk by itself,
But I saw the footsteps of he that walked,
To your throne and dwell as your king,
my heart bleeds as I watch the other king give you the ring.

Preticrystal:
So came my semi dream man
He came with the aura of the moon
He became my silver shade in the dark
And like  prince charming he came with the subtle love moves

O! How I wish it was you
How I wish you made me your Cinderella
To be the one entangled in the abyss of affection with you
To forever be the one you call Ella.

ALONE



I am all alone in that dark moment,
Where the breeze ceased blowing,
Where the memories of mellifluous voices of loved ones fade away,
And where shadow became my chum.

From head knowledge, I have refrained many from  drowning in depression  in their times of depression,
But no one cedes to me a thoughtful impression.
Alone by myself waiting for words of exaltation,
But to no avail, I got nothing deserving my expectation.

Tears flow down my cheek,
Who do I hold ransom for my solitude?
The chicks are always in a felicitous mood,
Maybe a solitary like me could comprehend the reason for my being gloomy.

Now what do I do when I am by myself?
Who appears alone when I yell for help?
I know I am in the world of angst,
But I know I'll one day be strong enough to leave the world of solitude.
