Life

Life is a game that no one can ever win

But it is a gift, comely as it seems

Everything comes in easy access

With hopes and dreams soaring in time.

Life is as broad as it unfolds obscure mysteries

Some fathom from beyond what else can be seen by the eyes

Others seek meaning beneath things out of the usual

Just learn to appreciate and live life happily as it is.

For instance, we bump into people unconsciously

Not knowing that sooner or later, they'd be gone slowly.

But have you ever thought of moaning in letting go?

Never mind, just accept and learn to forgo.

Life is a word indeed short but very essential

By chance, a special someone makes it even more special

Full of escapism; gazing firm on the wall

For life with love conquers it all.

No one can ever tell when it'll end

As long as it was lived on the fullest extent

Its value is priceless, it can never be sold.

Not equal to treasure, not diamond..not even to gold.

Love

A person don't know what to do

When you tell her you hate her so

That more you hate the more you love

Don't believe on a saying like that

Cause some people fight like birds

Apologize like dogs

But still following he heart

That never forget the past

Love doesn't hinder

If you don't surrender

It has full of consequences

That redly wonder

It's like temptations

That goes round and round

So have trust and patience

Cause thats what love is

LIFE

The sun's rays, the lights' gaze

Turning towards me as I wake up

It flickers and shines to my face

Standing and walking as I talk to pops

Going inside, singing a song

Ready to dress up, seeing my reflection

Fixing myself and dancing along

Cooks done and I'm walking to the food's direction

Inside my room and opening something

Checking if there's something new

Just really excited and wondering

Hoping that there's more than few

Finding my favorite, loading it

Waiting patiently as I look for more

And now it's done, I can feel holding unto my seat

This feeling inside of me that wants to roar

My pleasure has been fulfilled

Ready to enjoy my life that�s real

Going on for a future to build

It's the world's real deal

The Greatest Love of All

Are you sad, unhappy, and you feel despair

Don't worry, he would be always there!

No, I'm not that person

It is Him... Jesus Christ who loves us dear!

I do and you do love him

But, He loves us more than we do

He sacrificed Himself for us

Just to save us from our sins

Because he loves us so much

I thank the Lord thee

For sacrificing himself for you and me

Oh, how can I ever repay

The love that He is giving me day by day

Come and join me!

and let us stand tall

Spread the message and tell them all

That He is the GREATEST LOVE of all!

Worth the pain

I struggled hard and long

I waited and waited but you never came

I fought, I writhed, I resisted it all

Kept my promise not to stray away

You swore not to run away

I tried to hide it all

,the disappointment you gave

you broke my heart into a million pieces

and walked away

you didn't even look back once you walked away

I gave you my all

But you threw it away

What am I to you?

Something useless you chose to ignore

but everyone says

No Pain No Gain

and you were worth it all

A Brat

I sat beside a brat,

He just stole a mat!

He was eating something on a pot

He said it was hot a lot.

After a day it,

As on the month of May

I again sat beside a brat,

He just cut the mat

And the mat he stole was from a neighbor,

Then a boy passed by and asked him a favor,

He was mad because he was bad.
