Can I
by Charlene Rayna Sebastian
Through the night and mourn,
I see you in my eyes,
Shadowing the darkness of the pond,
Where misery and sadness lies.
How can you watch me falling,
And never give a hand,
Leave me there crying,
How am i to stand.
It is not that you lied to me,
And left me here so deep,
Can you hardly believe
When i put myself o sleep,
I let go of that fear i had in me.
Can i keep you in my life?
Will you always live in my mind?
Can i sleep without you always by my side?
Angel
by Charlene Rayna Sebastian
A smile on her face,
She stood there with such grace,
The woman whom we all love,
She reminded us of a dove...
White and beautiful,
Her purity and innocence,
Love and faith so full,
She amazed us with her confidence...
Standing tall in all she did,
Never forsaking God's precious gift,
A life that rooted from just a seed,
Grew and grew, oh so swift....
She is our angel forever and always
We will never forget all that's been gained,
An angel in every way,
So much that we have obtained...
Angel, angel...always our angel
Alone
by Charlene Rayna Sebastian
Driven no more, she stands alone,
I'm okay, she says, it is time for me to go,
Having just fallen, she bends down and groans,
The pain that she feels, she knows there is more
Taking a step away, she looks back
To a place she once knew to be home
Overwhelmed by the fear, living on crack
Physically there was others, but inside she was alone
A day has gone by, since she said goodbye,
To the people who claimed that they were her family
As tears run down her cheeks she lets out a cry
How could this have been, all done to me?
Can she now look ahead, to a better future
Now that she has moved to another place
All grown, she says, i have matured
To a young woman full of grace
I am not alone, im happy she says
This is a chance for me to live again,
While the past is forgiven, its not astray
The beauty of it, is that it will never be the same.
Trust and Nothingness
by Charlene Rayna Sebastian
It took one lie to break the trust
It took one story to build the hurt
Into the nothingness I seek for truth
Into the light, I seek for youth
Trust is like a ball
It's round and it moves as one
As it sweeps through the air
Trust is like a candle
It's flame lights the room
So that darkness will not fall
It took one step to make things better
It took one smile to gain the truth
Into the nothingness no more for me
Into the light, now I see
Dancing in the dark
by Charlene Rayna Sebastian
Imagine if you had
One moment to just be
Imagine if you had
One second more to see
The beauty of the world
The beauty of family
Standing for what is true
Standing for what is you
It's like dancing in the dark
So no one can see
It's like dancing in the dark
So that you can be free
Dance away into the night
Dance away your pain and fear
Free yourself from the hold on you
Free yourself for the world so true
My Angel, My Friend
by Charlene Rayna Sebastian
You are the light that shines
For all the world to see
You are the answer to my prayers
For everything that has been
My Angel My Friend
my everything
My Angel My Friend
my destiny
You are the flower that blooms
For all the world to see
You are the soft music
For everything that is not heard
My Angel My Friend
my everything
My Angel My Friend
my destiny
I
by Charlene Rayna Sebastian
I took a step ahead,
The road that crossed my path,
In pain, i looked for a way,
To lead me to my prey.
As pitiful as i looked,
I stood tall in all that came,
Was i to show it all,
No more to keep and blame.
The day will come when i,
Would have to leave it all,
Among the twisted lies,
Truth holds the light of day.
For all to come again,
The words have to be said,
A game no longer real,
Time will tell again and again.
Open Heart
by Charlene Rayna Sebastian
If your heart can't tell you what your feeling,
If your heart can't show you which door to open,
If your heart can't listen to what God is saying,
Then your heart is not open.
When you open your eyes you are blinded,
By the truth that overshadows your life,
As if to take away all that you own,
Trapping you in a world of your own.
I say, open your heart to God,
For he is the way of life,
Lift up your heart to him,
And he will fill it with his love.
Open heart, open heart....
Two Hearts
by Charlene Rayna Sebastian
The land is filled with love
Of two hearts build on it
With the power of God's neverending faith
It is he who makes the two not forsake
Life is yet a journey
Of the good and bad that potrays reality
The two will not let anyone
Underestimate their love
As sweet as puppies running around
As rough as a game on the field
It it these two who survive
The rocks and hills of life
Time has passed and another year
More to look forward to
Could it be that two hearts become three
Hope will eventually unfold
A gift to you i pray
That your life will be filled with more
Look not at the past but ahead
To the future that hearts can make
Insecurity
by Charlene Rayna Sebastian
A whisper, a frail girl
She stood still and looked up
The wind blows and she twirls
She will never give up
A gentle rose, a smile
Touch from within her
She begans to walk a mile
As she slowly drops tears
Opening her eyes
She sees the world
As reality sheds her lies
Into the future behold
Little girl no more,
She stands with insecurity
Like a river as it flows
She is born with misery
Hold on to her faith
And embrace the time
If it opens a gate
Into the divine
Sanity
by Charlene Rayna Sebastian
I am me
Without the knowledge of reality
I am me
Frailed but with hope of clarity
The world took hold of me
By damaging all that means to me
What then is sanity?
If we live in a world that isn't free
I am me
Only because of what i have learnt
I am me
Only because God made it to be
Innocent girl
by Charlene Rayna Sebastian
The end is near, so seek the truth
Strive for more, let fear escape
Innocent girl, she stood so still
Little did she know, it was too late
Desperate times, we shall not give
Let alone allow anyone to sleep
People will come, people will go
But the truth is seized when all is told
Innocent girl, come by today
Don't let anyone stop you today
Give to live, live to give
Be the one that's here to stay
The end is near for those who fail
Disguised as an angel,it is too late
Open your eyes for all to see
It serves as a reminder, for all but thee
Innocent girl, you are the tale
Of whom we all should undertake
Be still, be free oh little one
You are what's right despite all that's done
