Sometimes

Sometimes I despair

I don’t know what to do

Don’t know what I can do

Sometimes I’m at a loss

I feel helpless and powerless

I feel overwhelmed at life’s challenges

I don’t want to stress myself and over-worry over things I can’t control

But I just can’t help worrying sometimes

Sometimes I just want to shout out aloud

I just want to cry my heart out

I wish I can run away to the furthest corner of the world

Sometimes I feel so misunderstood

I know I can appear aloof

But I do value my privacy just like everyone else

Sometimes I just want to give up, I want to give in

I just want to throw in the sponge

And it’s all I can do to keep my sanity

Sometimes I get tired of trying to be strong

Of trying too hard and doing so much

I wish people will understand what I’m going through

Sometimes I feel like crying when I look at my dad

And it makes me wonder if longevity is worth the suffering that comes with it

It’s not worth the hype, I guess

But how can anyone complain to Allah for being granted a long life

~~~~~~~~

Sometimes I feel so insecure

I am torn and undecided

Do I want in or out

Sometimes I just want to be left all alone

Other times I wonder if I can make it on my own

Sometimes I’m just sick of men

Of the promises made, dreams shared

Sometimes I wish I was a man myself.

I Want To Know What Love Is

I’ve gotta take a little time
A little time to think things over
I better read between the lines
In case I need it when I’m older

Now this mountain I must climb
Feels like the world upon my shoulders
Through the clouds I see love shine
It keeps me warm as life grows colder

In my life there’s been heartache and pain
I don’t know if I can face it again
Can’t stop now, I’ve travelled so far
To change this lonely life

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me

I’m gonna take a little time
A little time to look around me
I’ve got nowhere left to hide
It looks like love has finally found me

In my life there’s been heartache and pain
I don’t know if I can face it again
Can’t stop now, I’ve travelled so far
To change this lonely life

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
I wanna feel what love is
I know you can show me

I wanna know what love is
I want you to show me
(And I wanna feel) I wanna feel what love is
(I know) I know you can show me

I wanna know what love is
(Love that you feel inside) I want you to show me
(And I’m feelin’ so much love) I wanna feel what love is
(No, you just can’t hide) I know you can show me

I wanna know what love is
(Let’s talk about love) I want you to show me
(I wanna feel it) I wanna feel what love is (I wanna feel it, too)
(And I know, and I know) I know you can show me
I wanna know what love is (I wanna know)
I want you to show me (I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know)
I want to feel what love is
