A song dedicated to the memory of my son Farid Irsyad Zainal. Tq LITE (Malaysia)
Song reminds me a sad memory. Everytime i hear this song, i can't stop wishing how i could have done things differently. I lost my son of 2 years old to dengue.
What saddens me most was i was busy with my work at that time that i neglected spending quality time with him. He was a bundle of joy back then.
Can't forget the memory seeing him waving goodbye at the door every morning leaving for work. Alfatihah my son😢
You melt in my arms
Like fragrance does
In a flower
You breathe into me
Like second does
To make an hour
You live inside of me
Like a current does
In a stream
You come to live in me
Into the sleep
Comes a dream
You cut my dreams to pieces
And scattered them in the wind...
Our department organised a party to celebrate a member of our management being transferred to another division. We had the outing at a karaoke lounge. Lots of singing and dancing 🎶. Me and 3 of my buddies were just observing and eating peanuts. We then notice a cute girl who was from another department. She was probably tagging along with one of our lady colleagues. I told my buddies lets sing her a song the moment she starts to leave the party. Helping out was our lady colleague. We chose the song If You Leave Me Now by Chicago. When she stood up making her move to leave, the 4 of us stood up in front of her and began serenading If you leave me now. She was all red blush..
She is now married to one of my buddies.
I open my eyes one fine day,
To find myself hanging on a cliff at bay
I focus my mind on how I got there
But fail as if my memory wasn’t there
I find it hard to understand, How I ended here
The earth seems moving, the sky seems falling
I thought to myself it was heaven calling
I prayed my last as breath seems to fade fast
My fingers slipped, my strength dipped
And I started falling off the cliff
I dropped faster and my head felt lighter
Like an untethered kite or a swift feather
I saw myself going down a gorgeous ravine
I crash on the ground and stare up the sky
To see my life flickering by
Today I see how empty I have been
And know I can't come clean
I lay life deprived, I know I don’t have a reprieve
I close my eyes and the last of my breath slips by…….
And then I hear a voice.. You keep falling from the bed again dear...
Voted for Paul Simon You can call me Al..The story goes when i first heard the song i was in my car when it pop out on the car radio. I was on the way back from work. I was feeling the 'moon so to speak' as i just got word i was getting a promotion & reassign to an overseas office. I think i was talking to myself most of the time while driving. I came to a red-light traffic stop. At the same time a car came alongside me. A girl was driving. That moment i turn to look at her and she too turn to look at me. A moment of gaze at each other. The song was about to finish. I wind down my window as her window was down and said - You can call me Al 😅😅. Traffic light turn green and she sped off. I wanted to follow her but unfortunately my car engine died on me. 🙆♂️ Btw my name is zainAL😅
Once upon a lonely feeling
In the wake of a restful, peaceful dreaming
A fragrance lingering there within...
Wishing a dream would never end
If only it were another day
Another place where sad music never plays
Everyday, forever yesterday
Life would be better than today..
Let the rain kiss you
Let the rain beat upon your head with silver liquid drops
Let the rain sing you a lullaby
The rain makes still pools on the sidewalk
The rain makes running pools in the gutter
The rain plays a little sleep song on our roof at night
And I love the rain.
So many thoughts unspoken
A silence held deep within
So many dreams forgotten
Not knowing where to begin
Sometimes we hurt the one that we love and it takes time for the wound to heal
