The Poison of Love

I was in a paradise of heavenly scent
Roses, orchids, chrysanthemums and so on
Brings happiness inside of me
And everlasting love when you smiled at me.

I was in a solitary room
Thinking of you every day and night
Your angelus face catch my heart
And love you as we go through.

I was mad back then
Scolded you as I was hurting you as I showed.
Your words makes me calm
And understand every little thing in hand.

I was like imprisoned with lies.
There’s no utterance of words from my lips
As you begged me to speak up
But deep inside, I was really hurt as I was saying
“I hate you. STOP!”

From all the lies
That both of us committed,
Only the two of us know
That in our hearts, the truth will remain…
As my beloved, 
I agreed to keep silent for LOVE 
And this will be for last.
