My understanding of LOVE.

Of frustration, I ask.
What on earth is love?
The question would be wrong,
Love is universal.
It would exist in space
If I were to go there.
My friends would hold me,
And not let me float away.
Just like they do now,
Keep me from getting lost
Into the wilderness and vastness.
I could end up lost and worried.
Look for my way,
Where there is no way.
So I’m glad there are friends,
Who love me right.

And when we get older,
We build other priorities,
Get on each other’s nerves,
And start to part our ways,
I’m sure I’ll fall in love.
With a girl who’s dreamt of me.
Then she’ll love me right,
Look after me all the while.
And I know she’ll be my friend,
Otherwise I wouldn’t fall in love.

This is how I’ve defined it,
The only love that exists for now,
Is the one that friends give me.
And to love somebody else,
A girl who’s not my friend,
Would be very unfair,
To all my friends and me.
So till we are together,
Our love will make us bigger.

The Day I Die. (written with tears in the eyes)

What would you do,
If I walked up to you
And told you,
I would die tomorrow ?

Mother would you hold me close,
And talk to your baby inside me ?
Father would you buy me the best electric guitar,
And take me for a ride in a luxury car ?
Sister would you still prepare me
For the world ahead, and protect me ?
Friends would you hug me as you walk in,
Look through your teary eyes, and remember times ?

I hope I’ll gather the courage
To talk about all my dreams,
And express my displeasure,
At everything everyone thought was important.
I hope I’d be forgiven
When I confess all my sins.
And I hope nobody explains
Or tries to justify themselves,
Because it would be my day,
The only day I die.

How long will it take you,
To fill the blank i leave ?
How long will you be sad
After I’m dead ?
Have you ever thought
What would hurt you more ?
If I died without telling you,
Or if I plead for solitude,
On the day I die.

Valentine's Day.

As I sit here single today
I realize how much I love everything.
I love the way I recognize her voice
Amongst ten others when she’s out of sight.
I love the way she waves her hand,
To say a ‘hi’ if I don’t notice her.
I love the way she runs into me,
Almost anywhere, any time of the day.
I love the way her friends plan it,
To let her know where I am.
I love the way all my friends tease me,
And tell me to walk up to her and talk.
I love the way she’s more special today
Because today’s Valentine’s Day.
And I’d love the way everyday would be more special
If she’d been my Valentine today.

Oh The Hills ...

I wish to go back
To that beautiful land.
Where the cold wind was sweet,
The fields green and brown.
The big, white windmills
Showed how pure the world is.
The green in the valleys,
And the trees I saw.

The waterfalls in the rain,
Would have been a great sight.
Too bad I missed them,
But I’m glad I imagined it,
Gave it my own beauty.

The early morning fog,
The trees I saw through it,
The reflection of the trees in the pond,
The depth behind the trees,
The sunrise in the distance,
The fruits that had fallen,
The birds that ate the fruits,
The trees from which they flew,
I wish I could be there with you.

And if I go there alone,
It wouldn’t be painful,
The beauty would heal it.
I hope you can feel
What it is to be there.

We Have Each Other.

There’s so much I couldn’t say,
There’s so much to talk about.
But circumstances,
Why did they turn their back on us??
Why were we left alone??
With no one but each other
Knowing each other’s pain.
Sitting in opposite corners, crying.
While everyone else dances.
I promise we’ll dance,
And make the world dance
To our newfound tunes.
When our love triumphs.
We’ve been through this before,
We know what to do.
Let it not stop us,
Let’s do it again.
Smile like we did.
Let’s learn again,
From these new mistakes,
We know we’ll fly someday.
There’s love in our stride,
And support in our stumble.
We have each other.

Smile Little Girl

The dreams have been broken
Cry if you want to,
Let’s cry together
I wish I could be there
Hold you, and help you.
Give you my shoulder
And everything else.
Prepare you for the fight
You have to fight again.
It’s been really very harsh
We know you can do it
You know you can do it.
Crumple your fears,
And wipe those tears.
You’ve had enough
It’s payback time.
Bring back that smile.
And tell me you’re smiling.
I’m so far away,
There’s not much I can do
But one thing’s for sure,
I can’t imagine you crying.
So take those broken dreams,
Mend them, rebuild them,
Do what needs to be done.
They’re your dreams
And you’ve worked for them.
So, smile little girl
We know you can do it
Just like you do.
And tell me you’re smiling
Because,
I can imagine you smiling.
And that’s all I can do.
Don’t worry, cheer up.

Eyes.

Take melted chocolate,
Sprinkle gold on it.
That’s the colour of her eyes.
And to sink in the chocolate,
Is what I feel
When I look into her eyes.
She just grabs me
And says a million things
With her eyes.
Forces me to look
And makes me realize
That’s what I need
Tells me;
That’s what she needs.
Doesn’t let me move
And we only look.
And those little lines
Around the corners of her eyes,
When she smiles,
With childlike innocence
Makes me want to be with her
And look after her.

Love.

We have a friend
Who doesn’t want the name
Or the fame we give him.
He makes his own love
And he gives love.
And we love him.
So that’s how you get love,
You give it.
Love isn’t measurable,
It isn’t equal to anything.
Love contains everything,
It’s like a land.
It has space for everyone
And everyone has space for love.
Love is like you and me,
Only foolish, but luckier.
Can’t see any boundaries,
Just enters and lets us enter.
We must all be like love
Everyone’s,
Selflessly.
And make everyone ours
And be like our friend
Because she’s love.

Let's just Love.

So they did it again.
Caught us unaware.
Hit us from behind,
And now they play be blind.
We want peace.
Let the love increase.
Let’s make this grand,
And hold each other’s hands.
Let’s help one another,
Prepare for the trouble.
Let me tell you honey
This really isn’t funny.

I’ll go out and shine,
For everything that’s mine.
Now the time is right
I know the future’s bright.
You and I hold the light,
We don’t have to fight.
The light comes from within,
Let it out through your grin.
So come along with me,
And let’s fulfill our dream.
Let’s just spread the love,
And free the burdened doves.
