Blaming You
I blame you for ruining my life
I blame you because I don’t feel that I’m alive
You destroyed my dreams
You killed all my hopes
I blame because you let me like you
Because you made me adore you
I blame you because I never lied to you
I never cheated on you
But you did lie to me
And you betrayed me
I blame you because you treated me badly
Because you made me feel silly
I blame you because my heart is grieving for you
I blame you because my eyes are crying for you
I’m blaming you for the tears that I shed
Blaming you because I’m mad
Blaming you for the pain that I felt
Do I have to blame my heart…?

I Hate You
I Hate You
I hate the way you looked at me
I hate the way you spoke to me
I hate the fact that once you cared about me
I hate your beautiful eyes
I hate your charming smile
I hate the way you think
I hate the way you look
I hate the way you talk
I hate the way you walk
I hate how romantic guy you were
I hate how wonderful person you were
I hate the fact that you stole my heart
I hate how you made me fall apart
I hate how you made a scar across my heart
I hate the sleepless nights that I spent
Thinking of you
Dreaming about you
Imagining you
I hate being insane about you
I hate being obsessed about you
I hate everything about you
I hate that I met you
I hate the way you lied to me
I hate the way you betrayed me
I hate the way you treated me
I hate how you made me dwell in sadness
I hate that I no longer know the word happiness
I hate you because,
You make me feel sorrow
I hate you because,
You made me feel like I’m in sombre hollow
I hate you because now
I am deeply sorry for myself
Because now
I’m grieving by my own self
I hate you
Because you meant to be my destiny
Because you meant to be my one and only
Because you didn’t give my heart another opportunity
I hate you because now
I hate myself for loving you
I hate you more because,
I Still Love You.
I hate you more and more because
I can’t forget you
I hate you because
I couldn’t move on without you
I can’t carry on without you
I hate you because
I will always love you

Love...?
Love is a sweet melody
Love is all about destiny
To love is to share feelings
Love is caring
To love is to have plans together
To feel each other
To believe in each other
To trust each other
To breathe the same air together
A boy falls in love with a girl from the first glance
It was love from the first sight
When he saw her became fond of her
Is he truly in love with her?
Or just want to be with her?
Is it because he’s lonely?
Or simply because she’s lovely
Is it the true love?
Is it the pure love?
When he saw her, felt that love is melody
Felt that this girl is his destiny
He shared his feelings, care, plans with her
He dreamt about her
All that in few hours
Is it love or insanity! ?
He described her face as perfectly made face
He wants her no matter what is the distance
She changed his life in few hours
Is that love?
Is she a good girl to do that to a nice guy?
Is it the wrong or the right way
To make him fall in love in one day
Is she a good girl?
He was living in peace
Now, he’s dwelling in a sleepless night
And no peaceful night
Now, he can’t sleep without thinking about her pretty face
Can’t sleep without gazing at her eyes
He‘s scared of living in fears
Afraid from losing her
When he saw her…
He felt that she’s the right girl he was longing for
The right girl he was looking for
Deep in his heart felt that she’s the one, he’s searching for
Is that love?
Love is precious
Love is priceless

meaning of life
What is life?
Is it nice or bad?
Is it easy or hard?
Some say that life is wonderful
Others say that life is terrible
Some say that life is like a nice dream
Others believe that life is so mean
Some say that life is sweeter than sugar
Others say that life is sombre and bitter
Some say that life is a shiny weather
Others say that life is a darky weather
Some say that life is awesome
Others say that life is tiresome
Is life lying and betraying
Or is it love sharing
I say that life has;
Some good and bad times
I say that life is;
A gift from God to us
A sweet melody for us
Life is a joy
Life is a toy
We have to know how to play with it
We have to know how to manage it
Otherwise it would make us shed tears
It would break our dreams
It would make us live in the past
And forgetting about our present
It would make us think;
That our future is ruined
That our fantasies are destroyed
No matter how hard life is
We have to be harder
No matter how tough life is
We have to be tougher
We have to know how to taste its sweetness
We have to know how to live in happiness
We should know how to kiss away the pain
We have to know how to remain always sane
Life is good
Life is bad

Regret
I am truly and deeply regretting
For giving you my pure heart
For loving you from the bottom of my heart
You were my breath
You were my strength
You were my sight
You were my life’s light
You were my first and last lover
I thought we belong together
I thought we loved each other
But you cheated on me
You didn’t even care about me
You tried to jettison me
I believed in each single word you said it to me
Thought you are honest with me
You didn’t love me
But now I know that you lied to me
I’m regretting for each moment I spent it with you
Regretting for trusting you
For believing in you
I am deeply regretting for the three words I said it you
Saying I Love You
Didn’t mean anything to you
You let me sink in your own world
You showed me a world full of love and promises
Now I’m regretting because I’m sad
Because your world was fake and full of lies
You were as the moon to me
Lighting my gloomy life
You were as a star to me
Sparkling, shining and keeping me alive
You tore my pure heart apart
You let my world fell apart
How am I gonna cure my poor heart?
I'm regretting because I met you
Because I knew you
Because I thought of you

Running Away
They leave their homes, lands and their families
Pauper people looking for changing their lives
Poor folks seeking better life
They want to live high
Seeking refuge, looking for paradise
They run away from their houses
Just to feel safe and get money
Think that they will taste honey
By getting far, swimming, suffering and dying in the ocean
When it comes to death, they’ve got no emotion
Their feelings passed away
That’s why they choose to run away
Suffering tortured them
Poverty killed them
Misery murdered them
Decide to get rid of their lives
Choosing whether having a better life or dying in the sea
They take the sea as their way
But confront death when they run away

Several Things I Hate About You
I hate when you call my name
I hate when you send me mail
I hate when you give me rings in the middle of the nights
I hate when you give me precious gifts
I hate when you look at me
I hate when you understand me
I hate when I’m in rough times, you support me
I hate when I’m weak, you give me strength
I hate when you tell me that you care about me
I hate when you stand by me
I hate when you hold me
I hate when by love you spoil me
I hate when you share everything with me
I hate when you draw a smile on my face
I hate when you dry my tears
I hate when you take away all my fears
I hate when I’m sad you make me glad
I hate how deeply I’m in love with you

She's In Love
He took her heart
He did that in one night
She wanted to be with him
But the distance is between them
She’s scared to be in deep love with him
Though he’s sinking in her love’s ocean
He feels towards her a pure and innocent emotion
She didn’t know how to be in love
He taught her the real meaning of love
He described her as Cruel Beauty Queen
She’s never been described by a Queen
She’s in love with the love’s King

Sorry
Sorry I didn’t mean to hurt you
I’m sorry, I lied to you
Sorry for making you trust me
I am sorry for letting you believe in me
Sorry for making you depend on me
Sorry for being mean to you
Sorry for being rude with you
I’m sorry I couldn’t love you
Sorry I played you
Sorry I used you
Sorry I betrayed you
Sorry for once i made you laugh
Sorry for not being enough
I am sorry for being tough
I’m sorry for the pain I put you through
I’m sorry I couldn’t make it with you
Really I am sorry for I wouldn’t find someone as you
Sorry for myself because now I feel love towards you
I know it’s late but it’s my fate
It is said that nothing is too late
Now I wanna be your soul mate
Sorry for everything I made

When I Found Out...
When I found out that you lied to me
I distrusted you and no longer believed in you
But I left it in my heart and never told you
I got scared of you, didn’t want to break up with you
Afraid from losing you
But I never showed you anything because I loved you
When I found out that you are with another woman
All my fears came true
Did I do something wrong to you?
So, why you treated me like this?
Why you punished me like that?
Have I ever hurt you?
Have I ever been mean to you?
All I wanted is to love me back
Now, I wanna my heart back
Wanna my happy life back
When I found out that you…
I said good-bye to you
And I would never come back to you
It’s time to let go of you
It’s time to forget about of you
It’s time to move on without you
