Loving You Is a Mystery

I look at you and I see no one else,

It's like staring at a priceless portrait,

A face, oh that face! It's like of an angel.

You're like a miracle waiting to happen.

You glanced at me and oh, what a day!

My heart was jumping up and down,

I can't believe it's true,

Surely, I have fallen for you.

Your hand cupped my face, 

I can feel my eyes closed,

You told me, "Be still, look at me."

Then I smiled. 

My heart was blazing, you're warm and you're mine.

When you said, "I love you." 

I can't help but smile. 

Silly sweet feelings growing inside.

My sweet Romeo, your lips are so soft.

You're brown eyes so deep, telling me I'm at home.

Every time that you kiss me, I feel so alive.

I thought this glorious day would never arrive.

Nobody's perfect but you are perfect to me,

A marvelous creation that God has given me.

I wish to live only to you by my side,

I will love you forever 'till the day I die.

A Stranger On my Bed

Comfortably lying on my bed, I closed my eyes.
It was silent and cold, I felt so depressed.
I wonder what it's like to be someone with me?
Not just anybody, but someone I truly know.

The wind was cold and my window was slightly open,
I wanted to close it but my body doesn't want to go,
So I stayed lying and then once more,
I closed my eyes.

A ray of pink, white and blue light,
A pale white complexion just far behind.
Then a tingling sensation from head to my feet,
It was warm and so sensual, a cry in between.

The room was darker, but it felt warmer than before.
A shadow was standing, now it's not there anymore.
I closed my eyes and once more I tried to sleep,
But a warm big arms cupped me in so deep.

I wonder what, I wonder where and I wonder who was there with me,
A ghost, an evil spirit or maybe a stranger who'd want to hurt me.
And as tears fell and as my fear began to grow,
A soft gentle kiss on the lips calmed me so.

But my tears won't stop falling as I stared the dark image,
He caressed my face and whispered to me, "It's all right."
Finally I came to my senses and then I realized,
It was only my sweet loving husband on my side.

A Letter For You From Me

Dear Mr. Gorgeous Man,

I know you were hurt when I try to pretend that I didn't like you.
How long has it been exactly? I think it was two years, more or less.
What precisely did you do to make me want you now?
The truth is, I don't know...

I still remember that day when you kissed my nose,
I thought it was the sweetest thing.
Pretending it didn't mean at all, haunted me day and night.
Oh what a sight, a beautiful memory that I can't erase.

How come you knew me inside and out?
You know my every move and every touch!
Can you read my mind or am I that easy to see?
It's like I'm transparent whenever you're with me.

And who would ever thought that I'd fall for you now?
Despite the teasing, the lying and the all pretend sighs,
You're undeniably charming and an immensely annoying vagabond,
You were my first brights and all my first lights.

Whatever have you done to me? You're a wizard in disguise!
A person like you is definitely hard to find,
Will I take this last chance or should I let myself go?
Behind this crazy facade is a whole different show.

I'm sorry, I guess, that's all I have to say.
I feel a bit weird in a strictly annoying way,
I know you've moved on and you found someone else,
I'm just glad that I met you, you were my beautiful experience.

But if I were to go back and changed the whole thing,
I'd love to love you in a whole different way.
With no more pretend and my lips slightly curved,
And my head held up high, a kissed on the lips instead of a nose.

What Loving You Is Like

Loving You is Like...

Walking endlessly on a rocky path,

Listening attentively to a boring lecture,

Crying alone on a deserted island,

Sleeping uncomfortably on a cold hard ground,

Feeling helpless in a very difficult situation,

Understanding a wolf in its howl of desperation,

Wondering above the pale dark skies,

Smiling alone on an empty vacant stairs,

Running backwards in a weird crazy nightmare,

Flying up high in a hurricane,

Jumping up and down when exercising,

Watching a romantic film and then crying like a baby,

Shouting "I hate you" at the top of my voice,

Blushing constantly when you're around me,

Grinning unpretentiously in front of others,

Lying about what I really feel inside,

And LOVING you more than anything in the world.

Dark and Gray

My tears won't stop falling,
I feel helpless, nobody cares.
What I am inside is different outside,
I can't smile or laugh,
I wonder what's wrong?

I live yet I'm not living,
I'm trapped in this four annoying dilapidated walls of torture.
Grieving beneath my bed,
I try to be optimistic.

How can this be, why can't I be?
The dreams, I dreamed, my ambition,
Are nothing but a mere thought of desperation.
I wish to be gone, this is not what I wanted.

Dearest memory, I beg you.
Don't leave me hanging and alone,
Sweet positive memories, I envy you.
What have I done to deserve such shame?

This HEART

My Heart, I wonder, are you all right?

You've been down, disappointed,

And humiliated day and night.

Oh, sweet light, take me away!

Hide me from darkness,

And Fill this empty whole.


Angel face, I seek you.

Where are you now?

Love me or hate me, I don't really care.

Just stay with me forever,

And I'll be there likewise.


What I need, I don't know anymore.

But this heart of mine is just a simpleton,

I might hide and push you away from me, Angel.

Yet in my heart, I want you to love me forever and ever!
