Dreamt of a love based on promises, of a happy life together
The ever binding love, the kind they say lasts forever.
Sealed our friendship with a smile, our courtship with a kiss.
Sealed our marriage with a ring, bonded by love, promise and happiness
Woke up to broken promises, and a broken heart.
A heart that lacked love, a heart that slowly tore apart.
Back to reality back to real life where some dreams , are just dreams
And that nothing we see and believe, sometimes, are ever what it seems.
An over aimed goal, now a missed target.
An Illusive dream, that I'll never have nor forget.
Different Destinies defined, two hearts trodding one road.
Along that road was the smile, the kiss the ring, but love, promises and happiness never unfold
A new beginning ended, what I'm left with, I've never dreamt of
Is once a virgin heart now broken, from an unrequited love

In These Arms
These arms.....
Are there to reassure you of my love.
It's your warmth, your comfort and shield
It's where your heart seem to find rest.
It's where secrets and emotions are revealed.
In these arms you've basked
in such sweet solemn embrace.
I stared and trace in my memory, my heart...
A portrait of your face.
In these arms you've cried
Sharing your joys and sorrow.
And when the latter outweighed..
prayed for a better tomorrow
In these arms I've tendered
my love, you now can't deny.
Bestowed my love upon you
like an angel in the sky.
In these arms you've whispered
Words a heart needs to know.
There I'll always whisper
''I'll never let you go''
In these arms you've sworn
That we will never part
Here I placed you in my life,
I've placed you in my heart
In these arms I hope
our love grow stronger everyday.
and that our love in our two hearts
would forever be, forever blossom, forever stay.
These arms, which you now lay
have reassured you I am sure.
That I will always Love you,
now and forevermore.

The Answer
When I asked for direction
You gave light to the way
When I asked for your guidances, your hand.
Lord you are my light, today and onward
and my strength, whenever I stand.
Confused, I needed answers
In different ways you've provided.
You said, In You, I can always trust.
Lord, It's you who've died, It's you who've risen.
It's you who delivered us.
There were times I felt despondent
I Felt like giving up,
But you carried me through that phase.
Lord, It's you who are worthy, worthy of thanks
and also most worthy if praise.
When I was alone
and I Felt afraid.
You said, '' Fear not, from you I'll never part"
Lord you lie above clouds, dwell in heavenly places
yet you also reside in this servant's heart.
When circumstances arise, and it's angered my heart
where loved ones and friends are concerned.
I seeked God
and this is what i learnt.
He said: My child, when friends and loved ones deceive you
and the pain is piercing your tender heart
Spread your arms and forgive, that you'll always do.
For when you, my people, sinned and forsaken me
I spread my arms on a cross
and forgave too.

The Brown Dove
A tear rolled out and froze......
looking at your picture one morn.
I sadly recalled a day
when a brown dove came along.
Ever so boldly..
ever so meek.
Eyes ever searching..
for something, someone, it seeked.
No one would ever know
what that brown dove meant to me
for ever since it came and went away,
It's flight, your flight, forever remain in my memory.
Through the window by dawn,
spread its wings in such array.
Out the window by early morn..
Thats when i knew You came and took him away.
We shared a love,
a brotherly love so divine.
My heart held your heartbeat
as yours held mine.
Now my heart won't let yours go..
for it's beating now, for us both.
It's where I seek and cherish you
underneath my heart's coat.
Friends and family surround me
where else can my consolation be?
Come sun or rain, day or night
you're not here with me.
You're somewhere looking upon me
From the Heavens up above.
Know one day we'll meet again
on the gentle wings of a dove.
The strongest links sure can be broken,
for theres a power greater than all things.
Many took flight, many are flightless
but one by one, He'll surely mend our wings.
In loving Memory of S.Phillip ( Inspired by Eulogy read by Twin brother)

In my Garden of Roses
In my Garden of Roses....
You're the one in full Bloom
The one Whose colour never fades, nor die
The one whose sweet substances never run dry.
In my Garden of Roses...
You stand solely without thorns,
You'll forever mesmerize me with your fragrance
and intrigue me with your delicate appearance.
In my Garden of Roses...
You are the one whose petals aren't blown away..
The One to whom I'm rain and sunshine
The one who'll never wilt away with time.
In my Garden of Roses...
You solely face my way..
For my heart would always shine light on you
and shower its love in rain or dew.
In my Garden of Roses...
Lies one bed where true love sprouts.
It's where our love grow from your strongest roots path
It's where i dug deep and buried my heart
In my Garden of Roses..........
