Self-love is not opposed to the love of other people. You cannot really love yourself and do yourself a favor without doing people a favor, and vise versa.

That Has Yet To Happen
Do me a favor.
'Sure.
I'm here for you.'
Don't do me anymore favors.
That's the favor I am requesting.
Everytime you have been here for me,
Why is it I have to remind you...
Of a favor you promised to do,
That has yet to happen?
'So what are you saying?
The excuses I used,
Were not good enough for you?
And I went out of my way,
To choose the best ones I could?
Well...
You don't have to worry about me,
Ever doing you a favor again.
People like you are not worth my time.
And are so ungrateful.'
I know.
It's difficult for me,
To not think of myself all the time.
'I'm glad you can see how selfish you can be.'
I'm reminded.
'Good.
It's not all about you,
You know.
I have a life to live too.'
I'm reminded.

I Could Not Love You
There're a billion people in the world
All of them equal but of different worth
I find you to have a value equaled by no other
You are a rare and beautiful flower
But I'm sorry that I could not favor you
And make you the queen of my heart as I should
That instead I chose a different group
And I chose to favor them more than you
To favor a person means that you are two
And I'm sorry that I could not be with you
And a favored another one more fair
Although you are a true queens heir
And amongst a million kings and princesses
You always claimed that you were the fairest
And though your heart is the kindest I knew
I apologies that I could not favor you
And instead I chose to favor another
Not your equal, but not your better
I see a million faces each day but only acquaint with a few
You and I went different ways so I could not favor you
You and I once had our chance but I chose to let it go
You had no fault at all as I made the choice alone
And instead I chose to look for another
And I did favor them more than you
Although in my eyes you are a flower
I'm sorry that I could not be with you
And value you as a queen like I should
But just as I favored another more than you
Another favors you more than any other
And chose to be with you and no-other

Truth
People around globe love me
I am affordable from poorest to the richest.
But I hardly find few buyers
my availability need no permit or passport.
I am omnipresent in the universe.
Humanity favor me when listen from others.
Everyone utilize me for their favor.
But many of them hate to follow me.
I allow myself to be used against me.
I am more powerful than sword.
People take oath for me but did not follow me.
They are innocent and ignorant people.
Only brave and strong person can buy me for good.
I can pray to god that more and more person follow me
Instead of listening from other mouth.
People across the globe called me……Truth and only truth
Truth hurt some time, but always a good help for human being.

Take Your Love Away
(r. sharp)
Do my heart a favor take your love away
Thank you for the offer but I cant let you stay
Everytime that love is given
Ive been the one to pay
So save my heart take your love away
Do my heart a favor take your love and run
Lets go our separate way before theres damage done
Oh cuz Im in no condition to fall for anyone
Save my heart take your heart and run
Take your love and hide away
Take my word that nothing but heartaches will follow if you stay
Take your love away
Every time love was given Ive been the one to pay
Save my heart take your love away
Take your love and hide away
Take my word that nothing but heartaches will follow if you stay
Take your love and leave me now
Take a look theres nothing to keep you from breaking me down
Take your love away

Living As God Favored
As I walk I feel the presence of God
No matter how uncertain I may feel at times, I know he is with me
When you have blessings coming from all places, that's the favor of God
Looking back, when I could have and should have lost my way, I had the favor of God
The Scripture says, the will of God will not take you,
Where the grace of God will not protect you and that's a fact
God is good and life is easy when you know you have the favor of God

Life Is Truly Like A Stage
If we filmed all our lives,
Would people watch us as we cry,
Would people listen to our lies,
Would people sorrow as we die?
If our stories were to be told,
Would people let the stories unfold,
Would people notice us be so bold,
Would people love us as we grow?
If our lives were to intertwine,
Would people drink it as a wine,
Would people lurk as we shine,
Would people sit as we dine?
If we had a song to sing,
Would people listen to everything,
Would people know our love is like a ring,
Would people know you are my queen?
If we all had an undying love,
Would people let it fly like a dove,
Would people turn to the gods above,
Would people know of our true love?
If I had one thing to give,
Would people know your love is why I live,
Would people know the joy, to me, you give,
Would people know for your love I'd jump a cliff?
If you had one thing to take,
It would be my soul so great,
Now that people know my fate,
It is that my love for you came too late.

Guess Who I Saw At the Mall?
Do me a favor?
'What's that? '
Promise not to do me anymore favors.
'Why'?
When was the last time you did me a favor?
'I don't remember.'
That's why I want you to promise,
Not to make anymore promises...
You will do me a favor.
'What was I suppose to do for you? '
Call my boss this morning.
To tell him I was sick in bed with a fever.
Guess who I saw at the mall?
Asking me 'if' I plan to be sick,
For the rest of the week?
'I don't know.
Who? '

I Want You To Die
You say u want me to die
I will once I find out if I'm pregnant or not
U said u love me I knew it was lie as soon as u said it
I'm cutting cuz of you
Why does it matter if people find out we had sex
Am I that bad? ? ?
I hate you so much
I can't be whiplashed from you when u feel he need
Do me a favor and delet my number
After three weeks u won't ever have to see me again
I'm goig to take my last breath and say good bye
It's what you want so I'm going to give it to you
It's what a lot of people want
Goodbye I wAs not fit to live in this world I guess
Looks like all my dreams will stay dreams instead of becomming reality

Variations of Love
The universe has
Germinated from love.
Yet to define
We find it
Pretty tuff.
Some people find love
Juicey and sweet,
That's why they grab it,
And never try to quit.
To someone
Love means sour,
Some people find it
As untouchable tower.
Some people define love
Tasteless and bitter,
They just sleep lazy
Like lotus eater.
Some people define love
As combinations of all,
Either manage them smoothly
Or, let it fall.
Some people for love
Ready to die,
To get love
some people
Even don't try.
For love some people
Even become fool,
Some people for success
Use it as effective tool.
Love to me is
Like the invisible air,
That can be felt
And drags her near.

Bring Me Home
There is this emptyness I carry around with me
Just like a hole that you will never see
I wander in the sun but its cold inside of me
Im a monkey in the zoo but someone cut my tree
Hey God if you are really up there and I am not alone
Just do me a favor,
Bring me home
Just do me a favor,
Bring me home
My oversized bedroom appears so small without you
Ive tried it all from pills to gin but havent found the clue
Its like someone has locked the door so I cant get through
To where the emptyness is wiped away by you
Hey God if you are really up there and I am not alone
Just do me a favor,
Bring me home

Tribute To The Beautiful Woman Of My Life
Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder so they say. Beauty attracts. Beauty is lik
e a pollen grain that attracts. Beauty appeals to the human senses. Beauty ma
kes life palatable. Beauty grants you favor. Beauty open doors. Beauty makes
you glowing for friendship. Beauty make people to always appreciate you. Bea
uty make people extend their hands of fellowship to you. Beauty make people
head turn to look or roll to gasp for air. Beauty make people run over themselves
. Beauty gives accolade and respect.Ho! Beauty Ho!
Beauty Ho! Beauty Ho! Beautiful lady i have given my heart to you
. I have given you my body my total being belongs to you. I am your all in all.Y
our beauty drives me crazy. Your beauty makes me abnomal at times.I cannot c
ontrol myself. I know the thing dey do me!
Do me! Do
me! Your multitude of words should have frighten the men but men still fall on o
ne another to win your love, should your empty talk make men hold their peace
? And when you mock should no one rebuke you. If i say i did not notice your b
eauty as well i deceive myself and posterity will not forgive me for that. If you will prepare your heart, and stretch out your hands toward me and accept me whole heartedly as your only beloved husband, i will fly to the moon because of you, surely you will lift up your face without a spot; yes you would be steadfast and not fear; because you will forget your misery and remember it as water that have passed away. Your life will be brighter than the noonday. Though you were dark, you will be like the morning, and you will be secure because there is hope; yes you would dig around you and take your rest in safety.You would also lie down and no one, i repeat no one would make you afraid, yes many would count your favor. I say with my whole sense of sincerity, tribute to the beautiful woman i love.

Love And Beauty
(Mike Pinder)
I look around at other people
I brush their shoulders at the corner of the street
But all they notice is their feet
It wasn't meant this way
Their minds have gone astray
If they could lift their eyes they'd see
There's people smiling just like me and I'll agree
It's not their fault because it's raining
It's all work and no play, it's just another day
(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
Should be everybody's duty
To welcome every man as a friend
I wish that I could change the world
For every boy there'd be a girl for him to know
And maybe people would look up
Then they might realize they're not the only ones alive
(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
Should be everybody's duty
To welcome every man as a friend
(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
(Love) Love and beauty (Love)
