Eternity

I care about the months no more
I’d count only when it’s necessary
But keeping records of every hour
Would make me sound really crazy

I don’t really know the difference
Of months from weeks and days
Of hours from minutes and seconds
Of sometimes from seldom and always

But I only know of two phases in love
Now—that is happening at the moment
And eternity—a gift we receive from above
These are periods I can never count

So if someone asks me this question
“When did you start loving him?”
“Now and each day my love goes on
My love is infinite—no end or beginning.”

Then you asked, “How long will you love me?”
I replied, “Would you help me count, please
How many days are there in an eternity?
'Cause I will love you even after we die in peace.”

Places

All my life I dreamt of going places

That I stop wishing and start taking paces

I should finally make this dream come true

Somehow I knew I can do it all with you

The places we go and the people we meet

Make every journey all the more worth it

But that’s not what gives me the bliss I feel

It’s being with you that gives me the thrill

Every time we plan another trip together

I couldn’t help myself but feel so eager

This was everything I ever hoped for

I couldn’t believe I am dreaming no more

But all of these will not stop me from yearning

We’re only in the first part of another beginning

I will never stop dreaming and taking chances

For as long as we can, together we’ll go places

I’d love to let these eyes see the magnificence

Of the deepest seas and the highest mountains

But I’d love it even more if in every journey

You’re travelling to different places with me

I Can't Stop Loving

I have loved and lost myself
To heartless people I kept loving
But I cared less of all the hurt
I can't stop my heart from hurting.

When you wish for some sun
You have to go through the rain
Like when I found true love
I can't just skip all the pain.

It's the grandest thing in life
When I was being loved in return
But I had known this for sure
Once I felt, I can never unlearn.

I have loved and loved more
Believing it's His Almighty plan
For me, I'll never stop my heart
From loving who I love while I still can.

Let Them Go

Some things had to change
For better and not for worse
Let them go and you shall be
Off ahead to a brighter course.

Some people had to leave
To end all the sorrow and pain
Let them go and you shall see
The bright sunshine after the rain.

What remains after it all
Are memories that live on forever
Let them go but do not forget
Through it all you became stronger.

First Love

You are that first sunlight at dawn,
The light that tells me the darkness is over,
With your warmth against my chest,
I am filled with hope I'll be sorrowful never.

You are that first drop of water in the shower,
That as you flow through my entire flesh,
My body is refreshed, my heart is cleansed,
You take away the pain of yesterday's regrets.

You are that first sip of coffee in the morning,
Your heat keeps my soul awakened,
You open my eyes to a new day ahead,
And leave all my last night's thoughts in bed.

You are that first look out the window,
That lets me see what's waiting for me,
Outside there's the harsh reality,
Today's another chance to live and let it be.

You are that first bite of food in breakfast,
That fuels my body with enough power,
To seize the day, make things happen,
To forget the past that had left me broken.

You are that first song in the playlist,
The tune that gets me dancing alone,
Cheers me up as I start this new day,
Sings to me, 'You are not on your own.'

Oh Von, can't you see?
You are the first thing on my mind.
I've never had such a lovely man like you,
Who doesn't see what's been behind.

You are that first love I've ever had,
Who turns my fantasies into reality,
Gives me the kind of love I long to feel,
And makes me the best person I can be.

This I promise now and forever,
No matter how many storms will arrive,
I'll stay with you through whatever,
Von, you are the last man I will ever love.
