THE SONG OF MY LIFE

THE  SONG  OF  MY  LIFE

Everyone had a song,  that belongs to their life
That will go on and on through the years of their life
There's a wonderful song , one that you brought to me
And I look at this song as my life's symphony

This is the song of my life
It will grow on through my life
 Something you said tenderly
Started this music for me
It springs from things that we shared
Only through you it is there
I walk along day and night
 Singing the song of my life

                                       

                                              I can picture the past that we knew yesterday
Every tear, every laugh, every step of the way
I recall what was wrong and the things that were right
And each moment belongs to the song of my life

This is the song of my life
It will grow on through my life
Something you said tenderly
Started this music for me
It spring from things that we shared
Only through you it is there
I walk along day and night
Singing the song of my life


32 years ago, it all started ...

Going through life was but routine. 
You get to do things the same way over and over again.
Wake up early in the morning, go to work, hang out with friends. 
and drink a couple bottle of beer, then home.
Watch some movies before going to sleep.
And then star all over again the next day - same routine.

Friday nights were a bit grander with money to spend.
More drinks after office hours and then massage with happy ending.
Weekends were more drinks, movies, card games.
Yet having fun is not the same as being happy.

I had a good job, earning more than I need.
I had done my share of housework and helped with our family business.
I felt no obligation and I was out to enjoy my new found freedom . 
A bachelor I was, no direction, no plans for the future.
Yet deep inside me, I never cease to wonder at the thought
that any day, the course of my life will change.
I was waiting for a special someone .


I
A simple "yes", a simple smile, a simple touch ...
I started thinking in terms of forever.


Love is a many splendored thing
Its the April rose that only grows in the early spring
Love is nature's way of giving
A reason to be living
The golden crown that makes a man a king

Its not a perfect love story. Just a simple one.
Two lost people finding a new world together.
Two imperfect person turning out just perfectly for each other. 
Always angling at each other, with opposing point of views.
But deeply attached to one another that arguments turns to laughter.
Tears welded our hearts, mistakes defined our bond.
A love story maybe not worth writing about,
but candidly etched in our children's hearts.

Welcome to my world.
It took me a lifetime to be what I am today.
I have read a lot, learned a lot, experienced a lot.
I found some jewels along the way.
Its my turn  to show where to find them.
