I never talked about God lightly,
The divine monarch of the eternity;
His reign abided from mud to the stars,
With pretty rainbow to admire from afar.

Oh why, oh why God had no hold over hell,
Chained Satan there after he rebelled;
The devil was raged by his inverted despair, 
With temerity to destroy souls everywhere.

Satan is reticent with his immortal shadow,
Spearheading many wars and sorrow;
Crying a river left no wisdom in my eye,
With desire for peace non-utopians defy.

Please banish the war our great God,
Behold the harmony with compassionate talk;
This life matters to every single one of us,
With the realm lived besides our beloved folks.

Death doesn't wander in randomly,
The executor in a shroud;
It acts without fear or favour,
To instigate pain under dusky cloud.

It took the love of my life,
Along with half of my heart;
Before he could mouth final words,
My love had to resign and depart.

I slotted back the rest of my broken heart,
Then perused the message he tried to utter;
Was my love telling me not to weep?
Or promising me to wait on the other side?

His smile imprinted in my head,
My love's body is absent and dead;
Treasured memories of his kindness,
Render it useless to decipher what he said.

Death has fulfilled its duty,
Triumphed over destroyed intimacy;
Lonely life is like sunset without fire,
Slain heart with no flame to aspire.

But my love hasn't vanished with Death,
His influences wield and remain fresh:
Even the moment he passed away,
Is historic for me to commemorate.

As a small child I fancied to sail
By ocean to a land of fairy tales,
Camp in a field with Little Red Riding Hood.
Dazzling stars would fire at the Big Bad Wolf.

Eat up fruits on bubblegum trees,
Free the Ugly Duckling from bullies;
Get all Three Little Pigs together,
Help them to live in the brick house forever.

I can't climb up Beanstalk for money,
Jack kindly says life in fairy land is free;
"Keep knocking on doors like Princess and the Pea.
Luckily, accommodation is guaranteed."

Milky Way dances as light fades.
Night drapes around Sleeping Beauty's place.
Over the sky I see the moon parades;
Pied Piper's music softly plays.

Quietly I have found Cinderella,
Royal palace is a place for pleasure;
Seeing Fairy Godmother and Prince,
Turning pumpkin into candy floss on string.

Unstoppable I would enjoy the sweets,
Vanilla ice cream and many more treats
While swimming with Little Mermaid in a chocolate pond.
Xylophone would be playing our favourite song.

You are right, my teeth will rot.
Zero chance for me to be slim and hot.

If death is nothing at all,
We will be enjoying summer and fall;
We shall talk and laugh as we have always done,
Instead of waiting for my time to come.

If you are in a better place,
With blue sky and beautiful lake,
You would be the brightest star after a thunder,
Instead of laid to rest six feet under.

If time will ease my pain,
I should have no tear when I hear your name;
My heart is still in a million pieces,
Instead of strolling down memory lane.

If only you can come back for one more day,
I long to see your smile and handsome face;
Please fill the house with your humor and laughter,
Instead of leaving me to survive in this empty gutter.

Now I know how short-lived happiness could be.
I miss the days you belonged to me;
Cherished memories of our love keeps you near.
The courage you instilled in me chases away my fear.
