7 Years...*

A wise man once told me

7 Years is all it take to get to the point of no return

I believe now the wisdom in his voice

If I knew then what I know now

I would have made a few different turns

However I don’t regret one day, that has changed my way

Why is it that me, you, as a person give up to soon

It’s mostly those who are so close, to strike Gold who is giving up so soon

No one said it was going to be easy

And no one said it would last forever

Look back 7years from now…

The friends have changed

Your love has changed

Your home might have changed

And your heart has changed

Your perspective of life has changed

Your life has changed

And the way you love… Has changed

3X7+3= Tomorrow is a new page

I might have 7 unknown days

You Might have 7 unknown months

And we might have 7 unknown years

However there will always be someone above

Wiping away the tears with love

No matter what 7 years hold

I promise no winter will be to cold…*

It was just a dream…*

A kiss so sweet it can light up my face

A touch so soft whenever you are near

Words that are spoken from a heart that only wants to be loved

A smile you sent across the room hoping she would see the mystery written in your eyes

You bow and ask for a dance

Swift her across the floor

It is a night neither one wants to end

As the song slowly comes to an end

You do your final bend

In respect he bows his head

Looked up and she was dead

Every night he sent a dove to find his one true love

Softly playing her favourite song

Praying maybe one day they would meet again

Opened his eyes and realized it was all just a dream

Tomorrow night we will meet again, my love…

Just as we did last night in our dreams

The Person with no heart...*

A person can only dream and pray…

Maybe one day

The dreams will turn to reality

The black and white will turn to bright lights… and beautiful colours

Wishing upon a star as a little child

Building sand castles in the air

However life can be so unfair

All your dreams, hopes can disappear in a blink of an eye

It only takes one person to lie

And tear it all apart

One person with no heart

All your dreams end up becoming your worst nightmares

With tears…

You fall down on your knees and say your prayers

You keep on asking yourself how it ended up like this

How can all your dreams just disappear like that

It only took one person with no heart

To push you back to the start…

Love is only a race…

Love is only a race…

I’ve walked a few miles gave my all

I ran the best race I could

There where hours when I wanted to stop

I promised myself not to give up

Promised myself to give it my all

Like every race there will always be someone to compete with

Always got to prove you might be better

I never wanted to compete to win a place in your heart

I was supposed to have been there right from the start

But in the end I think I understand

This was not a race that was planned

But we both had a stand

This is the hardest part to say goodbye

Now I have to turn a blind eye

And watch you walk away

I’m spreading my wings

It’s time for me to fly

Over the ocean

Away from it all that keeps on leaving scars

Love is only a race

Always compete to win first price

A Window to my soul...*

A Window to my soul…*

I wish I could have lay my heart down on a drawing table for you
I would have used needles and pins to hold it down,
Just this once ...
  I will not let it fold back and close up
With pictures and lines I would explain how big your part in my life is
Every day I pray and ask
Lord, save the love we share
When I pray, I believe, God will hear my prayers
In my heart I compose a love song

The most beautiful melody that I know
I have a heart over flowing with love
Will it be enough for you my love ...
It may have a few cracks, bumps and bruises
I even once tried to lock my heart away,
I vowed, never again will my treasures be revealed,
Every time It was crushed and thrown away
There was no success to the act, my heart refused that I made a murder pit of its power

I know now every heart has its grief
Forgive me for not being flawless

However I promise to love you every day with all I am
I may not always pass every test
I am only human ...
However Patience, I have plenty 
Promise not to turn my back and walk away, unless you open the door and request

If you want to know what is in my heart

 Look through the windows of my soul

There you will find who is in control

Two season's one page...*

What do you do when you get thrown to the wolves?

What do you do when your world turns blue?

When love gets the best of you

How do you do?

Like seasons of the year it all changed every three months

For some people it was sooner and other much later

You count every season and pray for summer to come

So that this winter can end

So go ahead and pretend

The summer is here when all you really feel is the cold

Your heart starts to feel like a fake piece of gold

You start to build your walls prepare yourself for the war

You know it is soon to come

Praying for a little sun

Just for a little hope at the end

Praying, Talking, asking, begging please stop!

Still it’s raining in paradise

It’s time to throw the dice

And so it ends with a fight

Call up all friends we are going out tonight

It was fun while it lasted

However at the end both walked away with scars

Scars that makes one stronger…

Few years later two seasons one page

All it took was a little bit of faith…*

Letter from my King…*

I have created you for my glory

Do not fear, for I have redeemed you;

I have called you by name; you are mine!

You were made in my image.

I chose you when I planned creation.

You were not a mistake, 
for all your days are written in my book.

Simply because you are my child 
and I am your Father.

I offer you more than your earthly father ever could.

I love you with an everlasting love.

I am also the Father who comforts you 
in all your troubles.

When you are broken-hearted, 
I am close to you.

One day I will wipe away 
every tear from your eyes

And I'll take away all the pain 
you have suffered on this earth.

And nothing will ever separate you 
from my love.

I am able to do more for you 
than you could possibly imagine.

I Love you my child

With all my Love your

                        DAD
