My Only Love

Hey guy, don't you feel ashamed?
You're not letting me study,
You're not letting me laugh for real,
You're the cause of all my fake smiles,
You're the one who's not letting me live,
But still you're my only love.

When you're present, I wish you weren't,
When you're not with me, I wish you were,
You define confusion,
You define pain,
You define a bad boy,
But still you're my only love.

When I confessed my love for you,
You were shocked and said you weren't single,
But all your friends said you didn't like any girl.
I always stare at you from my room,
And you always stare back,
I don't think it's a staring competition,
It's just that you're playing with my heart.
Yet you're my only love.

My friends say you're too old for me,
You'll break me to a million pieces,
They point these out as if I don't already know them.
I'm too innocent, I'm too blind to see,
That you'll never be mine, you'll never love me the way I do,
But I just hope that you know this,
No girl will ever love you like I did,
I still do, and I will forever.
You'll remain my only love forever and ever.

All Those Things

When we were small kids,
When we had little drops of water on our eye lids,
When we were best friends,
When our wild imaginations had no ends...
Yeah all those things,all those minor things,
I miss them, memory of them stings...
When we used to fight over toys,
When we had innumerable joys,
When all we had to do was play,
When a sweet candy used to make our day...
Yeah all those things, all those minor things,
I miss them so badly it stings...
When we cried over nothing,
When we laughed over everything,
When everybody didn't point out my flaws,
When everybody loved me as I was...
Wasn't it beautiful when you believed in everything and everyone believed in you?
Well..Everything has changed.

Lies

My life is a lie,
It makes me want to die.
Everyone asks, "How are you?"
I say, "Yes I'm fine, you?"
But you know what's true?
It's because of you. Yes, you.
I wish I could ignore you, hate you,
Like you do with me,
Forget the pain that no one will ever see.
I wish you hadn't entered my life at all,
Between us there wouldn't be an invisible wall.
My world was so very beautiful indeed,
Before you entered and made it bleed,
Now that there's blood all over,
Why do you behave so innocent and sober?
Yeah you always see me smiling and laughing
But I'm a liar, that's why I don't admit that inside I'm dying.
I'm sick of trying, I'm afraid of crying,
Stop asking if I'm okay, I'm tired of lying.

Young

Us, the new generation,
Must be provided with a solution,
To our several problems,
And how to deal with them.
Our elders always go on about how it was in their time,
And that teenage education is the chance of a lifetime.
They expect us to be flawless,
But don't they understand, we are already in so much stress!
Coaching,school,parents,friends,fame
Oh wait, with so much to remember, I'm afraid I may forget my name!
I'm confused, at times I'm told that I'm a child,
And then I'm told I've grown up, I shouldn't be wild.
What do they mean actually?
Thinking, thinking thinking calmly...
We are kids,
We are grown up,
We mess up,
We get into trouble,
We have best friends double,
We have lots of intakes,
We have heartbreaks,
We make some mistakes,
But please don't stop remembering,
We are still young, we are still growing.

My Secret...

Want to know a secret? She's dying. Every day, every hour, every minute, every second. A little by little. She has an unbreakable smile, but a broken heart. She acts strong, but she cries herself to sleep at night. She's losing the battle within, but no one notices it. And this secret, is killing her on the inside. But she pretends that everything is alright on the outside. She's dying on the inside...She's losing the fight...She's fighting to stay on the right side...She's trying to be alright...

Precious Moments

Each day I spend,
Has a very precious moment,
When I lie down each night,I know it's the end,
One more day has went.
But do you know what gives me happiness?
Those little, precious moments...
Class bunking with friends,specks of naughtiness,
Kicking and hitting each other,criticizing our mother.
I want to fly,I want to run,I want to fall,
But I do not want to stop,because,for anyone,time doesn't crawl.
I want to live my dream,I want to have fun,
Indoors with friends and out in the sun.
All these wishes fulfilled,makes me happy,
But that's nothing compared to the fun I have when chilling out with my friends,having an Appy.
So I decided,I will live every precious moment of my life to the fullest,
Everything has its time,now it's my time to enjoy and I will,
Being bored to death by studying, this thing I will kill!

My Dream

My dream is to be a girl, who is perfect,

In anything and everything and every aspect.

My dream is to become a fashion designer,

Partnership with beauty, dresses and eye liner.

My dream is to become an author too,

Writing away interesting stories, with princes and fairies and “I Love You!”

My dream is to have infinite friends,

Watching movies, having fun and shopping for trends.

My dream is to have popularity and fame,

Everyone would admire me and know my name.

My dream is to fly like a fairy,

I would fly past everyone, my head held airy.

My dream is to be someone who can be loved,

Rest is p to the people to realize my worth.

My dream is to live long forever, till the end,

And ‘the end’ would come only when a message I send.

My dream is to have whatever I wish,

But it will always remain an unfulfilled wish.

All of this is just a big, an adorable dream,

Which will gradually flow away with life, like a stream...
