My happiness is family
having someone to return to
my happiness is a friend
even if not perfect
just loving and true
my happiness is dancing
when no one is around
my happiness is reading
living through a book
my happiness is singing
when i sing out of tune
my happiness is love
a love that is forever new
my happiness is my family
a friend, me and you.
Sometimes I wish
to run away
from all that there is
to leave behind
all that i hold on to
to find a place
where i am
alone, on my own
so that i would
no longer
feel hurt
i could weep
without being noticed
live without fear
love without falling
sometimes i wish
to run away
from all that
there is.
The day i see my efforts failing
i shall withdraw
and with silent tears
the bond will weep
but i won’t.
Cuz it is better
not to trust again
better to cage your heart
for you can neither leave
nor come close
think how it will feel
when you part
soon will come the time
when you have to
bid goodbye
there won’t be
a trace of
hurt in your eyes
but your inside will know
which is something
you can never ever show.
Cuz family ties
bind me so strong
that its too big
a burden to bear
staying away
on my own
but to them
i couldn’t say
i still can’t
with time
i grew wise
stopped much talking
took my own advice
the ties
that once
stood strong
started to shake
cuz the ties
will be missed
and loved
all along
i take it all in stride
i decide to walk on.
Betrayal was last thing
i had on my mind
you dishonored me
my friend
by distrusting me
its not that
i did not do any wrong
but everyone did
then why am i
the only one to blame
you have shaken my faith
in all friendship i ever had
you have betrayed my trust
put me on the verge
of breaking
but now my heart has been beaten
so many times
that it no longer
feels the same
no longer feels a thing
This time
telling the truth
won’t help her
cuz hard it is
to accept
having fallen
in love
cuz the day
she tells
how much she loves him
things would be very different
things would be very different
There will come a time
when there won’t be tears to cry
you will weep inside
but the tears will dry
and you will realize
its time to say goodbye
time to say goodbye.
