When a princess kisses a toad

Walking through the same old road
Been living up her life with the wrong notes
She gazed at the clouds as they calmly float
Picturing back the past as it slowly corrodes

Once upon a time she was enchanted by his charming coat
It's like a sweet vanilla ice cream sprinkled by his lovely quotes
It was a smooth sail before it turned into a sinking boat
Maybe it was a mistake for a princess to kiss the toad

Committed to the love, with care she showed
Love made her numb. Love made her carry all the loads
It made her oblivious that there's a leash on her throat
Took her three years to finally crack the code

A mountain to gain her trust, an atom to make it explode
Do not poison her heart, for there's no more antidote
She said: "How could you betray me for all that I've sowed"
"You've broken me into pieces but I'll stay afloat"

Let's ponder

I wonder what's life all about
If we are blinded by the pride that made us proud
Some will always be dreaming being above the clouds
While others take a pill of risk just to clear those doubts

I wonder what it's like to be the best
To control the world with legs across the desk
Fame and money, they never get less
A luxury life while others clean their mess

I wonder what it feels like to break someone's heart
To shatter a priceless gem into a million shards
A horrible scene indeed but it's a work of art
Dirty tricks up their sleeves with some deck of cards

I wonder what is the value of a friend
If he holds a dagger and helps you with the other hand
Seven billion people with fourteen billion faces walk this land
They come and go just like the shadow of a man

A touch of love

When the sun hid beneath the shady clouds
Behold its tears that befall the land
In a flash of lightning the loud thunder shouts
Loneliness will always prevail in every man

A smile that shines among the frowning crowd
A man trying to hide among his group of friends
Deep inside he felt something is missing out
A soulmate that could hold his hands

And when the night falls, the silence will be loud
With cold breeze as the sea meets the sand
In an empty room wondering what's life all about
It's a piece of puzzle which most misunderstand

History repeats itself even when it's not allowed
It may be the last chapter but it's not the end
With a touch of love the heart will be cleared of doubts
Even when it's broken every now and then

Changed person

I used to be fat, used to be small
Used to be the kid kicking it all
Every time I climb only to fall
Now look at me, standing on top of the wall

I used to be the last one in my class
Failure is what I get from every task
Full of disgrace, I hid behind a mask
Now the time has come to gain back my trust

I used to be the black sheep among the white
Used to heat up the tension and sparked a fight
Shadow was my friend and darkness was my light
But now I'm a changed person regaining his pride

I used to aim for the moon but too busy gazing the stars
"Words speak louder than action" is the reason I couldn't make it far
It's all about the efforts, it's all about the scars
Now I'm polishing my own reflection from these golden bars

Sometimes the best way is to learn the hard way
You have to take that courage and leap out of your comfort bay
You won't gain anything if you forever stay
You can't be the predator if you're still the prey

My hero

Dad, before you go
I wanna tell you the things that I didn't show
I wish I could spend more time with you and let you know
That I just wanna hold you and never let you go

Dad, as days go by
I still can't stop the tears flowing from my eyes
I would trade anything, just name the price
I'm still a kid inside. I'm still not very wise

Dad, I know I'm not the best son
But my love for you is like the burning sun
If only I could travel back and treasure all the fun
If only I could hide you from the Reaper that's on the hunt

Dad, please forgive all of my bad deeds
I want nothing else, it's you that I need
Without you by my side, how could I lead
An empty life of mine in this world of greed

So dad, before you go
You will always be in my heart, you will always be my hero
I'm breaking down now and time suddenly feels so slow
I can't bear to watch you taking your last breath and slowly letting it go

From the wise

They told me life is a maze
Each path leads you to a different place
A place that either you'll be amazed
Or a phase you have to embrace

They told me not to be afraid
Afraid to start first or finish late
Different path has different fate
May you learn to love and not to hate

They told me to be tough
If you're on a bumpy road, it's gonna be rough
If you're on a sinking boat, people gonna laugh
There's always a lesson to take note in every path

They told me knowledge is the best weapon
There's only two, be the crew or be the captain
Trust your instinct if you took the wrong turn
You'll be wiser with the experience you earned

They told me life can be both bitter and sweet
It's about the people you treasure with whom you meet
It's about giving something for what they need
And you shall receive the rewards for what you did

Apple pie

You...
You are the bow to my tie
You are the apple of my eyes
You are like the cherry on the pie

You...
You mean everything to me, you're the perfect fit
Every time I see your smile my heart skips a beat
I can't stop falling in love with you whenever we meet

I...
I'll do whatever it takes to be with you
Even if you fall I'll be there to catch you
No words can describe this love for you

I...
I may not be the perfect guy but I promise
Promise to make you happy and make life a breeze
Promise to take you around the world across the seven seas

We...
We will be together till the end of time
I will be the villain and you will be my crime
We can be a mess but we'll be fine

We...
We may bend and break but we can still fly
Let's promise to fix one another without saying goodbye
My life wouldn't be perfect without you, my apple pie
