BIRTHDAY

I will sleep early tonight

and pray before I closed my eyes,

I asked God to be with me

for the rest of the night.

The night has ended;

the sun is bright

And I thank God

For all the blessings he gave.

The Sun smiles at me sweetly,

while the wind kisses me tenderly

Mommy and Daddy hugs me tightly

because today is my special day

It's my birthday.

My parents prepared a party for me

And invited my friends and family

to cherish this moment with me.

As the sun sets my birthday

is about to end.

But I felt happy because

My family and friends cares for me

And I hope I will have

more birthdays to come.

Friend

Friends are always there for you,

they never leave you.When you tell them secrets,

they always keeps it cause they don't want to lose a very good friend.

When you make new friends is like finding a treasure in an very big island,

Friends always help you in something because they always love you.

always love our friends,treat them as your brother or sister,because friends are important in life,cause sometimes they give you directions.

True friends never last because they are more than special,cause finding friends is hard,when you find friends it's like your in an obstacle or a maze.

losing a good friend is like losing a very important person in your life.So treat your friends good so that you would not lose a very good friend.

"ESCAPE"

Sand in my toes

forget my unworthy peers

I want to escape my confusing world

enough of my nonsense tears

The sea took my worries away

the sand filled me with calmness

I never want to go back to my confusing world

nor see another mess

I want to enjoy this short vacation

enjoy this life, nothing to divert my attention

relax for a short while

reflect, enjoy, live with just a smile

Some days i feel tired and down

i want to escape loud confusing sounds

I want to go to my worry free world

not another sound and enough of their nonsense words

Escape my crazy life

enjoy my short life

I want to see the world beyond what's in the present

go to that happy place escape what is recsent

In that world I am free

all I need is to reflect and see

A True Story

A lost my precious phone strap

I thought to myself,"Crap!"

What would Tigger do

If he no longer could hop?

I lost my wallet

'twas filled with money

What would Pooh do

If he lost his honey?

All these I lost

In two days only

How I wish

This is only a phony

But out of this misfortune

Came out something good

Realizing this

Gave me a good mood

In my mind

Why it is hard for me

To be alone and free

Can't be decisive and just be relieved

To commit in this life

Why do I worry about freedom?

Now that I'm down and full of regrets

Why do I still search when I know what I want?

Why it is so hard to live my life?

What can prove do to me?

Will it make a better person

Will it give me a respect of some reason

Will it change me completely and my sense of direction

Does anybody know why we don't stay happy?

Sometimes why do we feel suddenly gloomy?

Why do people don't speak truthfully?

It's the very the same reason why we live in a

World full of uncertainly.

"My Day and Night"

A very beautiful day,

That came into my way.

I started to pray,

And ended with no dismay.

Shine thus the sun,

With all my heart.

And it went on,

Until it's dark.

I saw the stars,

Twinkled so bright.

Yet it's time for me,

To say good night.
