Seasons of Our Love

warmth of our budding love
melted the wall between us
our love started to grow
like flowers in the spring

days went by
and we grew closer
love started to blossom
the summer of our love begun

unable to stop the inevitable
we started falling apart
like leaves from a tree
autumn had descended upon us

shattered and broken
we grew apart with cold hearts
frozen with time
we walked away alone

Life After You

everyone wants to fall in love
it's not a cliche
just the truth
that we sometimes look away

i was one of them
who looked away
but you changed all that
turned me into a lover

then it all fell to the ground
like a house of cards
love has left me
though i still yearn for companionship

and i found that in someone else
it was not love
but moments of sensuality
which was enough to get me through

here i am now with a stranger
whom i hardly know
love never crosses our mind
yet our bodies constantly collide

she keeps me busy
through these dark times
but when i let my mind wander
it always finds you

Coward

maybe you think i'm a coward
because of the way i've acted
i do not blame you
i know i've been one

it's not easy
to explain the circumstances
it'll only come out
as a justification

i don't want to give excuses
and i'm not saying sorry
no word can make up
for the pain i've caused

i was caught in the middle
between two worlds i love
so i did my best
to bring happiness to them both

i never wanted anything for myself
i only wanted happiness for the ones i love
maybe i was a coward for being selfless
and not pursuing what could have been

Whatever

whatever
is what i say
when i don't say
what i say to say

why does a daughter
have to lie to her mother
why can't a husband
be honest with his wife

why do we overlook
the little things in life
and wait till a snowball
turns into an avalanche

is it because
we are too afraid
of the truth
and its consequences

or do we try to lookaway
till we are push against the wall
and we are left with
no other choice
