death, deep, depression, emotions, fear, grief, heartbroken,
to my life I am a stranger
to my dreams I am a stranger
i don't know who I am and
where I am from I have lost my identity
i am lost please hear me out.
i am in a place where hate is mistaken for love,
where loving someone is a crime
i am in a place where being in jail
is better than being out.
I am a stranger in my own country
i am a stranger in my community
i am in a place where being a foreigner is a crime
i am in a place where being succesful is a crime
i am in a place where crime is the new way of life
I need time to adjust with this way of life, i need time understand
the world around me.

You have stolen my soul O foreigner
I have lost self-control O foreigner
You have given sweet dream O foreigner
My passion turns extreme O foreigner
You are so beautiful O foreigner
You are so warm and cool O foreigner
I am impressed so much O foreigner
I long for your sweet touch O foreigner
I want your yummy kiss O foreigner
You are the one I miss O foreigner
I am waiting for you O foreigner
You are my love’s guru O foreigner

I want you in my life
for today, tomorrow and forever.
Everything feels empty
when you are not around,
but our love is what keeps me going.
Nothing can explain fully how fortunate I am
to have you in my life.
For Loving you has become a must for me
It is no longer a choice or and option.
If there’s one thing
in this world
I’m afraid to lose, it’s you.
I am so in love with you
that I can’t dare to lose you!
I wish to be everything.
that brings a smile on your face
and happiness to your heart
I dream of a world where you and I
would live for a thousand years to love each other.
Though I Know I wouldn’t Live to be a thousand
I Will Never Let You Be a Foreigner In My Midst.

My trip brought by situation
I became a tourist
To save my life
This is my fate, yes!
I am not a foreigner
To be a stranger
I imagine somehow
I read history
Our land shall be free
To a great land I supposed
To witness a hope that is proposed
Seeing the light of torch
O! People of our land
Stand together for one
Shout! “We are done!”
Independence will come
I am a seeker of truth
The fact shall not do false!
Let us pray
Our land to free
Guide not to go astray!

hope, life, love,
Walking through this dry parched land feeling as though I were cursed; or blessed?!
Tasting its malignant barren soils and enduring its parallels void empty winds
As a foreigner arriving at a distant city wherein, everything is bartered in an illusions
Being sold at the markets amid this montage and myriad of refractive delusions....
Short upon vision, and in love with invisible yet visible balls and chains; pleasure or pain!?

I am looking for
A particular type

love,
Let me sing a foreign song
To the hears of my foreign friend
Let me dance with foreign moves
To the beat of my foreign art
She said she believed a foreign friend
That came far from a foreign land
She speaks calm to the foreign quest
And two foreigners look like a regular
Sing to me and hear a foreign melody
Save me from been a toreador
Fighting for love in a strange land
Call me my name and sing my pedigree

anxiety,
Fafhrd, Conan, Tarzan...
They could all beat me in a battle!
But when seeking true love,
I'm the one in the saddle.
But I'm the foolish one,
cause I had a dear love near,
though I took my heart to the internet
where my keystrokes torqued my steer.
In seeking the truest of love,
I was catfished by a foreigner,
and lost everything I knew and loved
where my real dreams swallowed shortener.
My heart is now shattered in a million pieces;
only true love here is covered deep in feces!

confusion, life, lost love,
As I walk in the ashes of what once was our love-
around the blackness sits a lonesome dove,
busy city streets with no one around-
only litter blowing in the wind and
falling to the ground,
memories echo from places we once sat-
still shots of you in that hat,
on the other side of that building over there just around the corner-
my feature lye's yet I walk away from
love a foreigner.

French “The Language of love”
Darling, speak French when we make love
wicked words I don´t understand but has a whispering meaning of delight.
I stand before you with salutial ********, a soldier of love
ready to sacrifice myself in your subterranean pleasure.
Your wishes have to be expressed in French, or the steed will not react
with proper force thinks it is time to return to the stable
On the subway in Paris, I got in the way of a woman who wanted to exit
she swore at me, thinking she said words of love, I kissed her and was arrested.
But soon released when they understood I was a foreigner
lost in the ways of the Gallic idiom.

God blessed his jewels
The one who raised
Their love we praise
Foreigner within
Ours hearts shall win
Rules of justice
God humble apprentice
Knowing shall yield
We may bless our fields
We shall never forget
Those important steps
Kindness exhumed
It filled the room
Struck me to the ground
With world spinning round
Touched by the Holy Spirit
God love I did feel it
Speaking proclaimed
They show known thee by name

Look into my eyes and you will find
No file of doubt about you
I must acknowledge your charisma
Many are yearning for your love
I must admit all men eyes like you
They have even eyes of a foreigner
I just ignore their taunting
My heart is easy to treat
I have riches to give you affluence
Just look at me with love
And I will love you even more
I will even give you my life.
