1 stanza

Hindi na muling titibok pa
Ang pusong ito para sa iba
Pagkat pag-ibig na alay
Sa iyo lamang ibibigay.

Still

Here I am thinking about you
Wonderin’ why I ever feel so blue
I’ll never know if you will have a clue
That here I am thinking about you

Hoping that I made it very clear
There’s no one that compares to you my dear
Wanna hold you close and whisper in your ear
Hoping I would make it very clear

That I...
I love you still

Someday is what all we have today
Let our love to find another way
But if not then I will have to pray
That someday I wouldn’t ever have to say

That I...
I love you still

Moon

Sleepless night
The moon is bright
And the world never stops spinning.

Winter,spring
Summer on full swing
And i still can't shake this feeling.

Pangarap






Dito kita pinangarap na makasama
Ngunit drawing lang pala ang lahat aking sinta

Isaiah 34:16

Chance can be relied on
 Trying to orchestrate
  Alienate old flames
   Promptings of the soul
    Seems wise to heed
     Preprogrammed too soon
      Escaping the need.

Time will tell
 Fade not away
  Crying is ceased
   Concerting with the promise
    Profound revelations evolving amidst.

97M

Ninety-seven million people
Everyone is a blur
With ninety-seven million people
Chances of us ever meeting
Leave it to impossible likelihood.


But take away the 96,999,998
We are not groping in the dark
Take away the 96,999,998
Wouldn't take a rocket scientist
To know
And accept
And understand
That providence
And destiny
And perfect timing
Is working in harmony.


Because ninety-seven million people
Can leave us both paralyzed
And resigned 
And content
Left alone to tend to ourselves
And that could be disastrous.


With ninety-seven million people
There could be 
A lot of possibilities
But none is more tragic
Than when 96,999,998 people
Could hinder us
To come across
And be together.

ride

invite your friends to ride
this wind
feel it touch your face
and drive
through the darkest of the streets
as you see
your lights sliced through it.

happy thoughts drift
free floating
your anger lifts itself
as you laugh
the jokes thrown at you
you don't mind
as you step on the gas.

summer is gone
and you are all alone
the chill is taking place
you feel it in your face
everyone has left
you just sat there by yourself
you hadn't realized
that you're the one who could decide..

My Cream Puff

When will I see you again, my Cream Puff?

It's been weeks since I first - and last - saw you.

But never the less, I can still remember your face, 
the way you move your hands when you want to make a point, 
the sound of your chuckle,
and that infectious smile on your lips.

Can i say that I'm missing you?

Missing even the sound of your voice,
that I just have to download your song.

Missing even that smile of yours,
even though I have memorized it
and engraved it at the back of my mind.

Fly Away

The Sky Is Falling 
On A Rainy Night
And I'm Aware 
That You're Out Of Sight
I Never Knew
What Got Me Here
Can't Understand 
What It Is I Feel
Everything's Going On Around
I Know I'm Flying
When I Hit The Ground
Can't Seem To Grasp
Can't Seem To Hold
Onto You And Your Thoughts
You Let Me Fly Away
Away From You, From Me, From All
The Sky Is Burning
On A Summer Night
It's Been So Long
Since We Had A Fight
I Never Knew
This Could Linger On
You Left Me Crying
So I'll Sing A Song
Everything Happens All Around
I'm Even Running
Going 'Round And 'Round
Can't Seem To Think
Can't Figure Out
What To Do So You Won't
Let Me Fly Away
Away From You, From Me, From All

time

it would take some time to forget about you.
it would take some time to unlearn what i feel about you.
it would take some time not to think about you
or wish that you are doing the same.
it would take some time,
but i guess that is all i really need.
i'm not a completely awful or bad person.
i'm just not perfect.
i know it's wrong to keep feelings for you,
but i know i will outgrow it,
i'll get over it,
i'll move on.

your eyes

your soulful eyes have betrayed me.
your eyes are the window to all the good things that you possessed.
i was once lost in the beauty of your eyes, and up until now, i am still consumed by the power it once radiates towards me.
your eyes seem to mesmerize me even when they're closed, but most vehemently when they cried the tears that i thought were mine.
your eyes still enchant me from the look that you gave on your still portrait.
your eyes taunted me in a way i had never been tempted before.
i had never held a gaze such as in your eyes that could have swallowed my soul.
your eyes never fail to captivate my deepest emotions and buried regrets.

caffeine in my vein

i had never been
truly wide awake
since the last time
i cried because of him
when we inevitably decided to separate.
i am losing blood
for lack of sleep
i am losing sense of time.
i am losing count
of the days
i spent
without him here.
i am flamboyantly over dressed
for this night's shallow hunt.
i am overwhelming 
with sorrowful regrets.
drowning my hatred
with this
double espresso
entwined in my finger.
it would be closing soon.
and i would be left
with the bastard
still running
in my veins.

number

a million and one raindrops
could never fill me
i'm twenty-three
and still have nothing
there are more than
a hundred ways to die
but i only wanna see you
just for one day
i'm nearly eighty-two miles
away from home
driving at thirty-five kilometers per hour
i'm not in a hurry
i'm excited to see
my fourth sunset off this road
it has been five nights
since i'm away
finding seventy-six reasons
to stay
but found ninety-five reasons
to go
fourteen minutes past bedtime
still thinking of you
i'm anxious of what
i can do
in seven days
for you.

tear drops

as the rain stopped falling
i could see the sun
i'm not accustomed to it
it hurt my eyes
it burns a hole in me.
as the sun rolled down
i could see the moon
it's not that beautiful anymore
it doesn't lit up my path
it makes me shudder.
as the moon dimmed
i could see the clouds
floating on by
straining my eyes to see
the silver lining.
and as the clouds thin away
i could see the stars
makes me tender
makes me bold
makes me wonder
and as i gazed upon them
i secretly wished
and hoped
for the rain
to fall
on me
again.

loneliness

loneliness
grips you
surrounds you
burn your eyes
drills a hole
in your aching heart.
nothing much to say
nobody here will hear.
cry, sometimes
it's good 
to cry
saddened by
the tears
that rolls down
your cheek.
melancholy
grabs you by your throat
until the silent sobs
you only hear.
turn off the lights 
sleep deep
and until then
the loneliness, melancholy
the infinite sadness
grips you again.

sapping sadness


where is the scar that i'm trying to hide?
all those lonely days are welling up again
like it never did go away.
maybe they're here to stay




why do i weep?
what am i trying to keep?
in this strange feeling of nothingness in me.




questions of why
why why why
