Don't Quit

When things go wrong as they sometimes will
when the road you are trudging to seems uphill
When funds are low and depts are high
You want to smile, but you have to sigh
If rest is pressing you down, if you must, rest a bit
But don't quit.

Remember Our Love

I remember the first time we fell in love
You looked so innocent and peaceful like a dove
I am convinced fate brought us together
And I hope it lasts forever
Like a match to a flame, you sparked up my world
You thrust me deep inside my heart like a sword
You are so much like a rose flower
so beautiful and tender in nature- the first thing in love's culture
Like a book, you came and spoke to me silently in black and white
Before I met you, I was weak
But now you are here with me, I am strong with might
Friend of the sun, bringer of light
You make my life bold and bright
You are the air to my body and food to my mind
The love I seek, in you I find
You turned my heart into a sea
The blindest eyes my ripples can see
Be my Juliet and I be your Romeo
I will die for you
I think about you all the time
