WOULD YOU BLAME ME?

WOULD YOU BLAME ME? When you fall in love with someone especially one that you are friends with, let the person know before you lose him or her.

Would you blameIf one day I tell you I’ve gotten over you?If I open up to youThat I have given up my love for youWould you blame me? Would you blame me one dayIf we end up not being together?If our hands ain’t joined togetherOr our hearts becoming one?Would you blame me? For often a time, we showed signsOr let me say IWe’ve been best of friendsSharing moments and memoriesLike stars in each…

SORROWS OF THE SOUL

Often times do tears drop Like the blessing of rain But frankly, it's not rain But a message from the soul and a plaintive heart

Often times do tears dropLike the blessing of rainBut frankly, it’s not rainBut a message from the soul and a plaintive heartWhich the mouth finds too heavy to outpour Of times do the soul become so dismal and desolateRemembering where we hailQuestioning one’s very existenceOf which the answer is nowhere Often times do the thoughts of the mind run helter skelterQuestioning and wondering;Why the…

STAR OF MY DREAM

Love is a beautiful thing when you are in the arms of the one you truly and who truly loves you.

I so long see the star in the skyBut often in my bed i lieLonging to have the star in my armsThe Star of my dream_But it seems far from reachTo lay my hands uponI day dream of the moonbeamWishful for my star to stare at nightWhen everything seemed so far awayAnd my daydream shutteredThere You came intimatelyIn my arms, shining brighter than the star

I met a manTold me all I ever didAnd my true…

FAILURE IS A PART OF LIFE PART 1 - THE NOSTALGIA

FAILURE IS A PART OF LIFE PART 1 – THE NOSTALGIA

Many times, for the fear of failure and thought of perfectionism, many people don’t want to undertake daring feats. The truth is, no one is ever perfect and failure is a part of life. Failure is a vital part of success. If you never failed, you never lived. “A person who never made a mistake never tried anything new.” — Albert Einstein. Everyone has failed before in trying out new things and…
