The Way You Make Me Feel
The way you make me feel,
I never imagine we having long conversation,
The hours we spent I would never forsake or forget them.
Getting to know you as a person,
Is truly a blessing.
We started off as friends,
But for you I had greater feelings.
I like you for you,
Funny, Intelligent and I enjoyed hearing your view.
I have seen your worth,
A diamond hidden deep down in the earth.
Whenever you are around,
I find it easy to let my hair down.
You never judge me.
You always love me.
You always say I deserve better,

Fatal Attraction
What would we give up for each other
To stay here and let our love last forever?
I’ll give up my world for you
But you would give up telling the truth
Like the saying when love exists you just know
But who said when love hurts (so much) why is it hard to go
This conjugated entity arose from nowhere
Her sole purpose was to befriend you; giving you the impression that her friendship was sincere
You’re intrigued by her wet wavy hair
And oh how her eyes genuinely sparkle
Baby I urge you to look a bit closer it’s just a squinting leer
It so hard not to force your hand while still trying to be subtle
It hurts so bad because You Are My EVERYTHING!
and you have the nerve to say calm down I'm over-reacting
I'm your long awaited queen when you are already my (promised) king
I heard when you said she's just a tease
But I’m telling you that’s all she is; she could never fulfill your needs
Nevertheless what do I know?
For I can’t get it out of my head she came in an stole my show
This whole situation isn’t right but I have to let sleeping dogs lie

In & Out
In and Out …..
In and Out
Here I am
Out and In ….
Out and In….
Am I here
Lost in time with no direction
I've denied logical thinking only to be driven by my emotion
Physically alone
And at times like this I wished I had a place to call my own
In and Out of love
Out and In love
I rather be out of love
My heart aches for your sympathy
Baby please, ‘baby baby please' tell me you love me
Oh how these tears seem to differ
Once thought we'd see marriage in our future
So much so I left my heart at the altar

Show Me
Baby I love you
And god knows it too
I’ll put no one above you
For the reason that my love is true
As a matter of fact
I give you my heart and I don’t want it back
Baby if you want me
You got to show me love
Baby if you want me
I act crazy but all I want is a hug
Baby you know I love you
I will never let u go for you are of great value
Baby you've got my devotion
And I stop fight the ocean
This love is overwhelming
And I hope your heart isn’t pending
Baby if you love me
You’ve got to show me love
At times I act crazy but I’ll simmer down with yr tender touch
Baby you know I Love You

Teenage Pregnancy
Giving birth at a tender age was not my intention,
How did this happen to me is still a confusion.
'Pregnant', me ha! never!
But his charming looks and boy was he clever.
The naive girl that I was, believed his lies and how he loved me so much,
I could not resist his charm but he convinced me wit his soothing and caressing touch.
The first time I saw Danny, he looked so handsome, strong and fun,
But coming to the end he turned out to be a real bum.
He wooed me with words and won me over,
I was shocked we would actually exchange our numbers.
When he first called, I could not believe it is really Danny.
We talked and talked for more than three hours,
Days and weeks had past; just before you know it we became closer.
Danny called me during the midday and told me to come home by him to lime and to have a bit of one on one time together.
I agreed to his idea but what did i know?
I thought all the girlfriends were doing it.
As soon as I entered his house, he started kissing me everywhere and all about.

Bedtime Stories (Good Night)
The night is young and so are we,
My fairy tale of you and me will again soon be a reality.
Trials and tribulations we must encounter,
It do not matter so longst we live happily ever after.
I am doing the necessary for this to come true,
Good night and no I love you.
Sweet Dreams.
I was falling (in love) and now I am in (love) ,
I am enjoying it I do not want it to end.
You say I should explore,
There is no need to because it is you I adore.
Good night and sweet dreams 'ma baby',
I love you sincerely.
You make me want to write,
You make me always smile.
It's a bit to much,
Know its a reflection of your love.
I think of you daily,

What's the Use?
I say you are mine,
Which basically means to have for a lifetime.
You call me yours,
Loving me with all my flaws.
We're official acknowledging each other,
It's like an agreement loving no other.
For your love is what I devour.
I love you, I love you, I love you,
Is something I look forward to.
Even when you don't say it as much as
I would like you, I know you love me too.
We've passed the stage of infatuation,
And the feeling I'm getting is I need to pay attention to my intuition.
Only God knows for what,
I hate having funny feelings in my gut.
In the beginning I was given all the warning,

Alone
Alone in this world that’s how I feel
So many emotions I rather not reveal
Tired of living up to everyone’s expectations
What about what I want you say stop play the victim
Never assume because u make an ass out of u and me
But what do I know (u never know) I never had the time to be me
Unconsciously you dictate my life
Funny moments I never had the time to smile
Always walking around with serious faces
I thrive for excellence because I don’t want to you to think I’m average
Is not that I don’t appreciate your teachings
Hate telling you I have exams it’s both a curse and a blessing
Always preaching I push you because I want you to have the things I never had
All well and good but I just need you to be my dad
You gave me everything and no doubt I’m grateful
Heated discussions are really a handful
I aim to please in every way possible
(Take pride) Because of you I’m a perfectionist
I have to be somebody never just a static
You make feel academically incompetent

I’m Soo MAD! ! !
Calling; calling
Got no answer
Calling; calling
Getting mad by every hour
I didn’t call to argue
I called to say I love you
I have had enough I’m furious
Ok right? ! ? ! ? You don’t even look curious
Tell me what to do with us
I’ve got these problems let’s discuss
I’m sooo mad at you
And you act like there’s nothing you could do
Maybe this relation wasn’t for us
After all ent you say I could fuss
I’m so mad I wished I could hate you
But we all know it isn’t true
Feeling like a volcano about to explode
He’s my Prince Charming but once a toad
Feeling to have a very tragic death
I’m saying things that later on; I would regret

I AM (I write)
I write of love, of hate, of anguish
But not of what is
..who is Anita Crystal Rose Khelawan
Anita named after the sultry sensation Anita Baker
Crystal... a nomenclature given by my father
An appellation used solely by my grandmother
Rose..so delicate the best of its kind
And like that flower it reflects my frame of mind
A rose does not bare just one color
The rose's semblance emulates a description of my character
I am a red rose - courageous & respectful
I am a black rose - mysterious &
I am a yellow and white rose - gracious & joyful
But i am 'Crystal Rose'
Khelawan a surname that's frozen in time
Khelawan I am lead to believe it's a fabricated name
It represents a new start relinquishing anger and pain..rejecting everything inhumane
Gaping at this picture the only time I've smiled was when I was a child
Times changed and this upward curving of the corners of the mouth is no longer my style
