When it aims to express a love of the world it refuses to conceal the many reasons why the world is hard to love, though we must love it because we have no other, and to fail to love it is not to exist at all.

My World Your World
Why should I love someone who's horrible to me?
Why should I love someone who will never love me?
Why should I care about someone I can't count on?
Why should I love when I can hate?
If I hate you will you survive?
If I hate you will I die?
If I hate you I hope you crumble
If I hate you I hope you cry
If you hate me why do I care?
Why should I care?
If love didn't exist what would happen?
If love didn't exist would we talk?
If love didn't exist I would have no troubles
If love was made up you'd b alone
If love was made up you would crumble
In my world you love me
In my world I'm happy
In my world I can count on you
In my world I can love
In my world everyone cares
In my world your in my league
In my world I'm good-looking
In my world no one hurts me
In my world no one harms me
In my world bullies don't exist
In my world everything is perfect
In my world everything is picturesque
In my world dreams come true
In my world dreams exist
in your world what happens?
Am I loved in there?
Am I happy in there?
Do I even exist in there?
Do you kill in there?
Do you rule over everyone in there?
Do people smile?
Do people cry?
Do people die?
What happens?

I Love You Lord Jesus
I love you, Lord.
I love you, Lord
More than anyone in this world
Because Your love is the greatest of all.
I love you, Lord
For You are my Protector
When the world is against me.
I love you, Lord
Because You are the one
Who gives me strength and hope.
I love you, Lord
Because You alone
Who understand me.
I love you, Lord
Because You love me
More than I love you.
I love you, Lord
For helping my family,
Relatives, and friends.
I love you, Lord
Because You are my guiding light
When my life is full of darkness.
O Lord, so many reasons to love you
But even without these reasons,
I still love you, Lord Jesus.
I know,
You have loved me before,
You love me now,
You will love me tomorrow,
And for the rest of my life.
I love you, Lord Jesus...

Her...
I can never get my mind off her,
I wonder if she'd mind if i'd,
make her my own,
and never let her go,
hug her tight,
treat her right,
act all polite,
take her on a date,
make sure i'm never late,
kiss her on her lips,
talk about our kids,
Make her feel like princess,
living in a castle,
hope that is not too much hassle,
But i am so blessed,
hope i can be the best,
hold you tight,
have your BR3A$t,
on my chest,
pass the test,
NOW YOUR MINE!

All The Love In The World
Watching all the insects march along
Seem to know just right where they belong
Smears a face reflecting in the chrome
Hiding in the crowd, I'm all alone
No one's heard a single word I've said
They don't sound as good outside my head
It looks as though the past is here to stay
I've become a million miles aw-
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
All the jagged edges disappear
Colors all are brighter when you're near
The stars are all afire in the sky
Sometimes I get so lonely, I could
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?
Why do you get all the love in the world?

A Hundred Thousand Reasons
I love you for
a hundred thousand reasons,
but mainly because
you are you.
I love the way you are always there
when this old world rejects me.
I love you for your company
when loneliness in my life creeps in.
I love you for being there
when my teardrops fall,
but I love you for
being you most of all.
I love you at my side
as evening turns to night.
I love for more reasons
than I can ever name.
I love you for saying I do
and consenting to walk with me
through the turbulences of life
and standing beside me as my wife.

The World Needs Peace And Love
The world needs peace, the world needs love.
Muslims and Christians are all alike.
The world needs peace, the world needs love.
We don't need another airstrike.
The world needs peace, the world needs love.
People of all colors must be one.
The world needs peace, the world needs love.
All sorts of violence must be gone.
The world needs peace, the world needs love.
Stop killing our brothers and sisters!
The world needs peace, the world needs love.
Stop all these bullshit wars!
The world needs peace, the world needs love.
Stop terrorism, please.
The world needs peace, the world needs love.
Let our children live to the fullest.
The world needs peace, the world needs love.
We must stand together for better world.
The world needs peace, the world needs love.
We are the children of God.
The world needs peace and love...

My Man
My man is the best in the world,
Hes got the sun in his heart and the moon in his soul.
His heads in the clouds, but his feet on the ground,
And when he speaks, all the birds come around.
I love you, I love you.
My man is the best in the world,
His eyes got the shine of the ancient stars,
His heartbeat is the beat of the ocean,
He smells like an aztec magic potion.
I love you, I love you.
Ah - ah - ah -
Babalu-babalu-babalu, I love you, I love you.
Babalu-babalu-babalu, I love you, I love you.
My man is the best in the world,
He knows me like the palm of his hand.
When Im good, hes so very good
And when Im bad, he laughs and says, dont be sad.
I love you, I love you.
Babalu-babalu-babalu, (babalu) I love you, I love you.
Babalu-babalu-babalu, (babalu) I love you, I love you.
(I love you, I love you, I love you)
Babalu-babalu-babalu, (babalu) I love you, I love you.
Babalu-babalu-babalu, (babalu) I love you, I love you.
(I love you, I love you, I love you)
Babalu-babalu-babalu, (babalu) I love you, I love you.
Babalu-babalu-babalu, (babalu) I love you, I love you.

Babalu-babalu-babalu, (babalu) I love you, I love you.

Sonnet- On Love
Each one wants Love of some kind or other!
And animals want love too in some way;
Appreciation, all want, O brother;
We need more love to spend another day.
Love is what rules the Universe from birth;
Love is what for earthlings strive, endlessly;
Love is what created man and the Earth;
Love is the force that binds all, tenderly.
Yet, all want Love to be show'red upon them;
And no one wants to love his neighbour well;
Love is soul's wealth-a magnificient Gem;
And hate is that which transforms world to hell.
Express your love to earthlings, if you can;
For without Love, you cease to be a Man!

Trying To Love You
I blew out all my plans
The world fell in my hands
The day that I began
Trying to love you
The secrets I have kept
The nights I haven't slept
I've laughed until I've wept
Trying to love you
Trying to love you...No one's come as close or gone so far
Trying to love you...I've lost and found myself in who you are
Trying to love you...So easy and so hard, trying to love you
I've watched myself get stuck
Squandered all my luck
Almost given up
Trying to love you
Trying to love you...It broke my heart, it's chipped away my pride
Trying to love you...Everytime I'd see that faultline slide
Trying to love you...I've crossed the great divide trying to love you
instrumental
Trying to love you...I've screamed your name, I've slammed a thousand doors
Trying to love you...I've worn a million miles across the floor
Trying to love you...Still I could not ignore trying to love you
It's pulled the best from me
For all the world to see
I guess I'll always be
Trying to love you

What The World Needs Now
(hal david/burt bacharach)
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No not just for some but for everyone
Lord we don't need another mountain
There are mountains and hillsides
Enough to climb
There are oceans and rivers
Enough to cross. enough to last
'till the end of time
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No not just for some but for everyone
Lord we don't need another meadow
There are corn fields and wheat fields
Enough to grow
There are sun beams and moon beams
Enough to shine
Oh listen lord if you want to know
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
It's the only thing that there's just too little of
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
No not just for some but for everyone
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
What the world needs now is love, sweet love
What the world needs now

Bitter Blow of Love
Love! you dealt a bitter blow –
You lay me cross the mortal plains,
Bedewed, bedimmed amongst a show
Of tearful clouds: eternal rains
To weep at my enduring foe
Of harsh reality – searing pains of
Destiny: dependable propensity
To fool myself repeatedly
That I could ever triumph over love!

Sonnet: Today is Valentine’s Day 2004 (my birthday)
Today is Valentine’s Day naught, naught four!
A day when lovers world-over may greet;
A day to express love/affection more;
A day for friends to exchange gifts and meet.
What can be more precious than love on earth?
Yet, without love, there can be never bliss;
And love in modern world is quite a dearth;
Yet, love is one thing that oft eludes us!
When love is foremost in the hearts of men:
And love is punishment to even foes,
How much more love, profound comes from H2eaven?
Love’s weapon is the answer to our woes!
This is the love-message, a Bard can give,
Let people heed, mend lives and better live!

The World of Love
The world of love is waiting
For you and I to share
The world of love is waiting
Just tell me that you care
The world of love is waiting
For two people to move in
The world of love is asking
Where have you and I been
The world of love is hoping
That we’ll give it a try
The world of love has a place
For you and I to occupy
The world of love is shining
Because now we are a part
The world of love is living
Inside both of our hearts

Because I Love You I Have Become Nothing
because i love you
i have always been ready
to give up my world
all for you
because i love you
i am willing to conceal myself
from the truth
because i love you
i live the way you want me to
away from myself
because i love you
i confronted the death of all my senses
no promises no resurrection
because i love you
i thrive on compromises
i deny myself
there is no I, only you
there is always the betrayal of my destiny
there are no more shadows
just you just you
because i love you
i have become a mist, an imagination of myself
i have become nothing.

How happily you do the acting!
You are happy in this world
How happily you do the acting!
Happiness is a big fling!
How hard you try to conceal!
The real truth, your eyes reveal.
How hard you try to conceal!
How hard you try to do the acting!
No one loves any one
We love ourselves the most and crave for it
Rest is for the lust and for the benefit.
How hard you try to conceal the beast
No matter how, you are, small or big!
This is a real lip service
No one loves progress and peace.
How deep is the colour of your face- paint!
How hard you try to become a saint!
Whatever camouflage you adopt to conceal
The real intention, the acts of you reveal.

The Description Of Love
Just I was thinking about love
What it does how it comes
May I could give a description of love
Though I know its hard to be described
Yet no one has the choice to decide to fall in love or not
Lonely hearts stay alone
Strangers they are in this world
At the stations of the life there they wait for the train of love
For the unknown
Yet no one has the opportunity to chose who to love
Always we fall in love with someone so far of our imaginations
Not the one who we were figured out there somewhere in our imaginations and desires
Yet all the lifetime we wait for the perfect one to come out
But never ever the perfection and the love have been met yet
Those both are two strangers
They're too unlike to be met
Yet it comes unexpectly, has no timing comes at one without any warning
Love comes like a storm to our lives
It never puts differences between the old or the young
Oh love how can you be described
Yet how hard its to find the real love
Maybe that's why once it comes
Occupies our souls there's nowhere to run to escape of love
It captivates us and we become the honest solders of the love
Yet when we fall crazy in love
How hard is the lose of real love
Our hearts years there cry
How hard its the lose of real ove
Yet the love is like a war
Sometimes we win
Sometimes, somehow unfortunately we lose the love war
Sometimes we become the poor slaves of the love war
Oh love you are so hard to be found
Oh love you are so hard to be described
You're Inscrutable...
Unreachable...
Unforgettable .....
There's no word in the world that can describe you yet?

I Don't Get it Yet
Come, come, listen,
And you'll hear, you'll see
Why we live, why we exist
There're three reasons
Man call it philosophy.
But to me it's beyond
human understamding;
Ask the agnotics
They know what I mean,
God, religion, love
Make up our world,
If there's no love
War would cut us asunder,
If there's no God,
There would be no world.
Religion is our belief in God,
How we interact,
With one another
And with God, our maker.
But there's something still,
Lucifer, death, Hell,
Well, I don't get it yet.
