The world is an open sea and you’re my anchor - Farhan Ejat

The world is an open sea and you’re my anchor
 
Time of hardship and despair
You’re my savior
 
Im a horseless knight, your words my armor
You’re a but a queen and I'm just a commoner
 
Life is a lesson, you’re my first teacher
At school you teach, at home you’re a mother
 
Those days I’m a failure thinking of quitting
With a smile you remind me that failing is learning
 
You’re a blessing sent from up above
Your heart is filled with a thousand loves
 
You understand my silence, and read my tears
Now I wish we can live a thousand more years
 
Home is a garden, and you’re the rose
Shine with the sunlight, with the moon she glows
 
Thousand miles and world apart
I can’t see her love, but I can feel it in my heart
