"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.

Friends

Whatever mountain stands in your path,

whatever obstacle blocks your way,

whatever difficulty immobilizes you,

and your friend is always there for you.

She is one of the best you�ll know.

She is like a sunshine that lights up your negative world and make it positive.

She is the best because when you�re down,

she helps you to go up again catching up with your problems,

making you feel better,

and happiness is all you can found inside yourself when she will be always with you.

The things we see may not the things we need.

The one we want may not the one for us. But whatever happens,

you can be sure that your friend appreciates the whole you.

She is the reason why you are always happy,

she�s your inspiration, your life,

and it is the reason why your day is always nice.

And she�s the best in your life that you don�t want to lose.

Life never seems to be the way we want it,

but we live it the best way we can.

There�s no perfect life,

but we can fill it with perfect moments!

You are looking for the best friend and when you finally see it,

you take it for granted expecting to find a better one,

not knowing that, it was already the best!

If I Only Tried

I hope you know you are my light.

You are the sun that makes me bright.

You are the star that shines my night.

When im with you i feel so right.

These are the things I couldn't say.

Because I thought it wouldn't pay.

I thought that you would run away.

And I was scared to be in dismay.

But now I know that if i tried,

maybe just maybe you would not have defied.

Maybe if I tested i could have tested the

love that I wasted.

If only I would have tried.

You and I

You were my good friend,

But why did our friendship end?

You made me smile,

But now you�re away from me for a mile.

I miss the jokes you�ve shared,

And the way your eyes stared.

We spent so much time together,

I hope that you�re mine forever.

It seemed to be perfect,

Yet, I need more time to reflect.

I am hugging you so tight,

But oh, it was only a dream at night.

Now, everything has aged,

Everything has changed.

Why did I go away?

If I could just bring back the time,

I would find a way to stay.

HERO

Is he big and strong?

Or loving and kind

Is he weak and wrong

But has a good mind

Does he wear an armor?

Or wears a tie?

Does he love clamor?

Does he tell truthful lies?

Is he foreign?

Is he dark?

Is he king who reigns?

Not a dog who barks?

At the end of the day does he love?

Or does he love your money?

Does he send letters with doves?

With a sign that says honey

How I wish everybody can be happy

Not one sitting on the floor

The question that remains funny

Will you open your heart through its door

We're Empty

Try to take a picture of love

didn't think I'd miss her that much

I wanna fill this new frame

but it's empty

I wanna write a letter in ink

It's been getting better I think

I got a piece of paper

but it's empty

Maybe we're trying to hide

maybe we're torn apart

maybe the timing is beating our heart

we're empty.
