Mi Amor

Once upon a time, in a land far away
I met a girl who stole my heart, really should have known from the start.
Brighter than the summer sky, fresher than the winter snow
She was the one for me, deep in my heart I did know.

At first I tried hard to pretend
That we could merely be best friends.
But, whenever I would look into her eyes
My heart would always lift my disguise.

There was something, somewhere deep inside
A feeling we could no longer hide.
It started with a kiss which was definitely a bliss
I had to tell her how I felt else I almost thought my heart would melt.

I'm not exactly sure what God has in store,
But I do know this much is true.
She opened up in me, the sides I couldn't see
So sweetheart, I'm starting to fall for you.

I always need you by my side, I'll always take you for a ride
I'll steal your breathe away, with no more words to say.
A lifetime of promises and a world full of dreams,
For only my heart knows, to me what it means.
I'll love you now and I'll love you forever,
Our souls are meant to be together.

Freedom

You may tie me up all around,
You may wrap chains around my feet,
You may clip off my wings,hold me down, close to the ground.
But how will you put chains around my dreams?
Even the saplings rise up slowly, breaking through the hardened soil;
Rising straight towards the bright sun in the sky.
Do you really think you can deny me my freedom?

You may put me on shackles,you may beat me down to death.
But can you really stop the rays of the morning sun,
From reaching me through your prison bars.
How will you monitor and stop my thoughts, my feelings, my desires?
It is a just a matter of time, before I spread my wings,
And like a Phoenix, rise from my own ashes and fly out to kiss the sky.

This is the freedom I wish for me and I wish for you,
A land freed from the shackles of race,color and creed.
A freedom built on equality, unity and peace, and not on hatred and vengeance,
A freedom where we are all free from oppression and exploitation,
And a freedom which leads to happiness of all beings.

Only time will tell, if my dreams will ever come true.
Whether it is the beginning of the end or the end of the beginning,
Whether it is the sunrise or the sunset leading to the dark night ahead.
It looks like the road to heaven but feels like the road to hell,
But we will see this through together, as we will continue to strive ahead,
Listen closely my friend, can you hear the Bells of Freedom.

Always

When everything goes wrong, and my life runs amok,
I always think of you, and somehow get off the hook;
In the midst of the chaos and ruin, you make my heart sing;
You’re my inner peace, my happiness, my everything.

Life without you went fine, but it was just okay.
As I spent my life aimlessly, getting through each new day.
Now that you're here; love, joy and pleasure I see,
Each second is filled with renewed motivation and sweet ecstasy.

I never ever knew about real happiness;
I never thought that one's dreams could come true;
I never really believed in unconditional love,
Over the yesteryears, until I finally met you.

I had loved you then,
And I love you still;
I do adore you now,
And I always will.
