I'm a person that carries everything that happened to me in my past, with me into the future. I refuse to let it make me bitter. I still completely believe in love and I remain open to anything that will happen to me.

You & I
(joe galdo/lawrence dermer/rafael vigil)
Nothing has changed, same as it was
Its time to think about the future
Forget about the past
Once its all gone, you cant go back
So now its up to us to find a way
To try and make it last
Until you give your heart completely
Unless you take that chance
Then it cant happen
Its not all in vain
We can make a change
Just you and i
Everythings is left in our hands
Weve gotta make a resolution
We need a better plan
Dont go too slow
We must move fast
There has to be a way to make it work
To keep it in our grasp
Until you give your heart completely
Unless you take that chance
Then it cant happen
Its not all in vain
We can make a change
Just you and i
We gotta stay together
Gotta find a ray of hope in stormy weather
Trying to make it better
Till we find a way to make it last forever
Some things remain, others have gone
Its up to us to get solutions
We must come up with one
Cant get it wrong. it must be right
Because we lost too many battles
And we gotta win the fight
Until you give your heart completely
Unless you take that chance
Then it cant happen
Its not all in vain
We can make a change
Just you and i
Everything is the same as it was
Its up to us to try to find a way
To try to make it last

Red Box
Why don't you look at the price I'm paying?
Walk in, take a look inside,
I've moved back the tables and chairs to the wall.
The valuable things I've had to hide.
Chorus:
Open up the red box.
Come on, open it up.
Open up the red box.
Come on, open it up.
Peer in, looking for that crasher again.
You ruined Terry's party last night.
An overweight greasy little man with a mouth
That opens more than now and again.
(Chorus)
Something good must have happened to you.
If you would let it happen to you,
If you could let it happen to you,
Something good would have happened.
Lopez, I hate you for the state you're in.
Lopez, your hair, it washes out, it washes in.
You ropey little fat boy, Lopez.
Come on get lost.
(Chorus)
Something good must have happened to you.
If you would let it happen to you,
If you could let it happen to you,
Something good would have happened.
I'm out of my head.

Truly Incomplete
Search for you I do
I know you are present, however you refuse
Deny, you do love
Love of mine seems to have left no impression on you
My feelings only hold you as my love
Even though you clearly expressed that our past needs to be erased.
You are so wrong
Misunderstood you have me and my love
Now it feels that as if it was so easy for you to forget me?
Suddenly, my love has forgotten me
How can she do that to me?
I gave her my all
Everything I gave completely
However, at the end I still remain incomplete
Truly incomplete, I do remain
Seems as if life is hell
World has died, search I do for you.

A shadow from my past
i wonder if details matter,
it happened so long ago,
is it really important?
do i really need to know,
who and why?
you a shadow from the past,
but you haunt my mind,
just knowing part of what you did,
makes me wonder why i trusted you,
i begged not to see you,
but my begging wasn't strong enough,
not without a reason why,
so i continue to be abused,
i was scared of you,
is that the reason you remain,
being a shadow in my thoughts?
i blocked you out,
just like the pain,
no longer have a face,
but yet you remain a mystery,
in my past,
i'm starting to think,
it should be where you stay,
no need to open a can of worms,
that don't need to be open,
for me to understand the whole story.

Glance At The Future
I always wondered
What would happen in the future
Somethings in the past
Seems to be like a blur
Always wondering
Would i find love the next day
But when that day came
I stayed the same way
Life is always filled
With alot of surprises
Seeking you future with sins
Is something God despises
Your future lies within the decisions you make.

The Husband And Wife
What ever happened to the husband and wife
What ever happened to love
What ever happened to the dreams they thought right
That they both thought so much of
What ever happened to the holding of hands
Or the whispers of secrets to keep
Did it somehow slip away with the time
Is it somewhere still hidden beneath
What ever happened to the words I do
Replaced now with words of cruel
Does somehow it still linger on
Is love only lost and confused
What ever happened to the romance
And the love that was in each breath we took
Must somehow be forgotten now
Was this in the chances we took
What ever happened to the husband and wife
What ever happened to love
What will now happen to the rest of our lives
For love, was it overlooked
What will now happen to the dreams we once had
When the world was right at our feet
Is love somehow still hidden somewhere
Or is this the way it must be
There once was a time when it meant so much more
When love walked with us in life
What ever happened to the love in our hearts
What happened to the husband and wife.

Memories will always remind
People say that you have to let go of the past if you want to make it to the future,
Truth is that you will make it to the future but your memories will never fade,
Even the ones that a special person has given you,
That you just can`t earse,
Memories are one of the best things a person can have because its something to look back on for as long as you live,
Memories are ever lasting,
A story to tell,
So hold on to those memories,
For in the future as well

Look to the Future
Look to the future
Detach from the past
Let the people go
Start a new this time
Look to the future
Love like it’ll last
Dream like it’s forever
No move envy
Look to the future
Have the star life
Learn from others
Take it in
Look to the future
Be proud with yourself
No more lies
No more disguises
Look to the future
Solve the unresolved
Be someone’s firefly
Stop living for yourself
Look to the future
Be the person
You dream to be
Stop fantasizing
Look to the future
It’s only gets brighter
From here on out
Detach from the past
Look to the future

Love Is Only Blind When We Don't Want To See The Truth
it just funny,
how some guys will choose,
girls they don't know,
draw them in,
and mess with them,
they make you feel special,
make you feel like the one,
it all happens so quick,
you think it was love,
but love can be blind,
we see what we want,
until it catches up with us,
and we wonder how we got in this mess,
we think it becuz the guy loved us,
but in reality,
all they wanted was,
to turn us into what they want,
they want us to be there puppet,
not there one and only,
if that was the case,
they would want to take their time,
open us like a present,
and charish us,
not use, change and throw away,
we are better than that,
to be treated by a guy,
with little respect,
we only take it,
becuz we feel lucky to find us somebody,
who cares and open there heart,
but when you listen closely,
you realize how selective they are,
telling you what you want to hear,
and in the end,
they want you to accept their past,
but it seems like they can't accept your,
selfish people don't deserve good people,
but you see it happen,
in more ways than none,
but the only person that can stop it,
is the person that is in,
this type of relationship.

And If you let......
*Ros-Mum Dah*
If you let go a little
Nothing will settle
You may create an extra space
Lead to emergence of unforeseen race
If you let go a lot
Big battle will be fought
Something more and additional is sought
Your attention is arrested and never caught
As it is rightly said “offer little with good intent”
No hostile reaction later if you say “no” and dissent
This will give you more insight of a stranger
It will save you from possible frustration and anger
There should be careful and permanent attachment
So in case of some set back there is no detachment
It must have some open windows to think and monovour
It must be seen then as complete success in your favor
Why do we accept person who is completely unknown?
Why is that we completely surrender to him and be known?
What does it mean to in our real life for future?
Why do we care for and think for ever to nurture?
It is destiny and decided by almighty to be respected
Inner soul must be searched and thoroughly inspected
It is almost unavoidable must be taken as final wish
How come small creature can survive without water like fish
It is almost certain and likely or bound to happen
Fruits too after certain time are bound to ripen
It is unique experience when events take place at right moment
Nothing can help us whether we remain at centre and make movement
Let someone not fool us or take us for granted
We allow the seeds to grow as per wish when planted
We commit to self and accommodate even at some compromise
Words have to be believed and so on the reciprocal basis the promises

People We Meet
It's weird the people you run into
everyday a new person or one from the past
simply amazing when and where
Libraries, stores, bars, anywhere
from a little hello or a face from the past
A lovely little chat can bring memories back
what we call the good ole dazes
it puts a warm feeling when you touched someone
knowing they remember you, you remembering them
finding out you have a lot in common
but so different in the past
social status changes over the years
but we all still find out we're still the same
money does change the past, changes the future
but touching a person's live can be endless
we were mean and cruel to some in our past
but maturity and experience may have taught us to be better
Hold no or grudges towards the past
look to the present and to treat people the same
people make the world the way it is
so we need to show the young the way
treat classmates, neighbors, strangers right
the way you want to be treated
they may treat you better back
for strangers we touch may be our friends in the future
make a gesture to someone and the gesture may be returned
love to touch a ole classmate's, neighbor's or stranger's life
kindness and friendliness starts with you
make day with a post, a hello, a letter
memories good or bad can make us a better person
meeting people one by one make me write of times we met
the stories we do tell of yesteryear.

Anything Can Happen
Time will come when we know what happened here
Change will come in time and make it clear
We learn one thing if we learn at all
In the secret wars we call our lives
Anything can happen
We watch the days, we make our plans
We change in ways a life demands
But what ever pleasure this life may allow
Ill give you the love I have for you now
Because anything can happen
In a world so full of fear
Dreams are whispered in the dead of night
And people disappear
But you hear my heart and you know Im still here
Although you know and I know you know
While I swear Ill never let you go
Anything can happen
Yeah, if this love can happen here
Anything can
We watch the days we make our plans
We change in ways a life demands
Ill always remember this time, this place
The hope in your voice, the light on your face
Because anything can happen
In a world so full of pain
People give their lives to making war
And we call those people sane
But I love you where your dreams remain
Though you never say it anymore
One day therell be an end to this war
And who knows
We may see what were here for
Anything can happen
Yeah, if this love has found us here
Anything can
Can happen

There are people who make things happen, there are people who watch things happen, and there are people who wonder what happened. To be successful, you need to be a person who makes things happen.

Infuse your life with action. Don't wait for it to happen. Make it happen. Make your own future. Make your own hope. Make your own love. And whatever your beliefs, honor your creator, not by passively waiting for grace to come down from upon high, but by doing what you can to make grace happen... yourself, right now, right down here on Earth.

Past, Present, And Future
As I think about the future,
I dream about the past.
I live in the present,
So I can make these moments last!
So I can’t wait to see,
What the future holds for me!
I feel no remorse for things done in the past,
Because the past holds the key,
To open new doors for present and future necessities!

A glorious past
Past is always glorious
by that only you have become known or famous
that must remain on or continuous
the reason may be many or various
you can't go by the past
though it might have ended fast
the present may still be eluded
if past is not at all included
you love the present and think of future
the thing which is not there for sure
Think of the past with little from present
you won't feel future too absent
don't read much about anything
you will have to prove for everything
you can't trust the present trend
you may plan accordingly with some mends
