Somebody misses your smile,
The hugs and love you share,
The warmth in your heart,
The love in your eyes,
...

A ride outstanding it was among others,
Long enough but seemingly just a second,
Many ordinary people around me save for a special one,
You made it just like the two of us in the whole world.
...

I’m scared you will leave,
I’m scared I’m going to be lonely,
I’m scared to lose you,
I’m scared my heart will be empty.
...

Everyone is searching for something,
They travel east to west in zeal,
They hunt as if looking for treasure,
Deep down the jungle they scan,
...

They all compete for a seat
Parliamentary, governor, and even presidential,
They lie that every home I will visit,
That even the poor have the potential,
...

Its days like this,
That I wanna fall on my knees,
And tell you what are my pleas -
Love for you I have that can’t cease,
...

Sometimes I know,
Sometimes I think I know,
Sometimes I’m sad,
Sometimes I’m glad,
...

Butterfly butterfly, fly high to the sky,
Let everyone see how beautiful you are,
Among thousands you stand out, why lie,
Flutter those wings till everyone says “Wah”!
...

Fourteenth of February may be gone,
But why should only one day be meant special?
What if every day was like the day you were born,
Magnificent yet so exceptional!
...

I don’t want to be just a memory,
I want to be your future,
I don’t want to be remembered,
I want to be with you.
...

On the other side of the track she stood,
Busy laughing and chatting with her friends,
Maybe about school, maybe about boys,
Too happy and merry but little did she know,
...

Like a single solitude white cloud against the vast azure sky,
All alone i am listening to my heart cry,
Of a loved one who in me is greatly dear,
But whether she loves me or loves me not is not so clear,
...

The spaces and distances between us never die,
That even though another Christmas has gone by,
My heart still sings a song sang only by those who cry,
Of a loved one who left but never said goodbye!
...

I know no words can undo what i did,
And it’s not that I’m asking for a second chance,
But just you to understand,
That I know what I lost is precious,
...

If i was to be granted one wish,
Then it would be our love be bound with a leash,
That for the rest of our lives,
We stick together like the strongest adhesives,
...

Good and bad days
The cool breeze washes my face,
An all I can is with delight gaze,
At the blue sky everything in place,
...

If only I could go back,
And undo all the things I have done,
If only I could go back,
And feel the happiness I have felt before,
...

We speak on the phone,
And we pick no bone,
We text each other,
Hoping that neither was further,
...

The extraordinary luck,
In my life now a worthy mark
That my humble life has encountered,
No longer sad,
...

At 3 AM under the street lights,
A young couple,
Intoxicated out of their senses,
Itching to make love to each other,
...
