QUEEN IN DARKNESS

Every time I close my eyes,in that darkness,your face clearly shows Your eyes always have an undying glow In a world where many seem to be alone You defy the odds and bravely claim your throne Their eyes,like fireflies,light your path So diligently Almost like it was your right by birth Lest I forget the eloquence in your speech when you address your subjects And how decency you so effortlessly portray in every aspect The queen My queen But only in darkness © Nana.

LET THEM KNOW I TRIED

It's in how you hold my hand under this beautiful sky adorned with stars that put the city lights to shame It's in how I find re-assurance in your eyes,that I can always trust you It's in how my heart skips a beat when you whisper in my ear It's in your embrace It's in your caress It's in your kisses It's in how you always manage to make the past moments we've spent together pale in comparison with the present "I am taken." So you keep telling me in the midst of my advances But if they ever decide to put my life in script, Let them add that I yearned to save you from an ill-fated love, that did nothing but weaken you Just like you rescued me from grotesque images of not being loved like I loved © Nana.
