Lost Love Letter II

It’s just too fast and too overwhelming, it’s like a desert storm passed our entwined souls and fate disrupted our flow then everything changed, everything. I can’t keep pace with you anymore, we tried to talk, we tried to try it again, still as I gave everything you suddenly gave up, but deep inside of me there is a tiny lint of hope that no one could ever understand, maybe it’s called love, maybe it’s just foolish hope.

I blamed everyone for everything, everyone, including myself, everyone, except you, you who are not bounded by any mistakes. I know, as they say, it’s my fault for being too attached, for giving too much, I’m guilty as charged. Sadness, pain, shock – mixed emotions that I felt when you left, my written poems that look like violent rants, pictures that are hidden with pain. Despite all of this I didn’t hate you, remember what I said back then? I said, “I just want you to be happy, it’s your decision so you better be happy, likewise if you’re not you’re always welcome to come back.” Honestly, I don’t know what the hell happened to me why I said that and up to this time, I still ask myself why did I let you go. Well, I know that regretting will not change anything, but those what if statements still pop’s out in my mind from time to time. Yeah, I know it’s about time to fully accept everything but, to put it bluntly, it kills me, you see, it’s not that easy.

People change, but memories don’t. Now, nothing is different except that I’m now trapped by that feeling you caused, that strange feeling makes us strangers again. You tried to talk to me out of it, but I can’t. Your excuses that I don’t want to hear anymore, your presence I don’t want to feel. I’m sorry for those lame acts that I pulled just to avoid you, I just can’t take it anymore. Our story is not about unrequited one-sided love, it’s about me expecting too much.

Tamang Panahon

Pusong giniginaw mali ang tinitibok
Uhaw sa pag-ibig ulilang lubos
Nababaliw na isip nagmamatigas
Batong lumalaban sa tadhanang subok
Siya’y nagtitiis habang nasasaktan
Mga matang laging nakatingin sa kawalan
Isang lalaking hinding hindi ka papabayaan
Naghihintay na mapansin ang nararamdaman
Laging nariyan handang nagiintay ng pagkakataon
Siya’y nagaabang ng kanyang tamang panahon

Tinatagong Lihim

Meron akong tinatagong lihim
Hindi alam kung paano sasabihin
Daanin ko na lang sa pabirong paraan
Ang pagpaparamdam ng nararamdaman
Hindi alam kung anung gagawin
Natatakot na baka hindi mapansin
Itatago ba o ipaparating

Selfish love

It’s the same story. I’m here sitting in the dark with a crippled heart
I lied to others and deceived even myself with my own eyes
Pious lie trapped in diluting time consumed by my own selfish love

Panitikan

Isa puso ang bawat letra ng alpabeto
Tahakin ang landas ng isang manunulat
Wag titigil hangang hindi ka kuntento
Magsanay upang maging magaling na arkitekto
Wag mag da’dalawang isip gawin mo mismo
Lawakan ang ka-isipian gamitin ang natutunan
Maging mahusay na makata malupit sa literatura
Ilabas ang saloobin sa bawat tinta
Ipagyabang ang nilikha ng talino
Ipaglaban ang sining na nagawa mo
Mga sulat na hinulma ng karanasan
Pagyamanin ang sariling kaalaman
Igalang ang mga bihasa sa panitikan

Messed Up

Nagising ako sa iyong mga sinabi
Isang katotohanan na mahirap tanggapin
Siguro nga hindi kami para sa isa’t isa
Ngunit ngayo’y ano ang aking dapat gawin

Ako’y napatitig sa iyong mga mata
Nagulat na lang din ako mahal na pala kita
Andyan ka nakikinig sa aking mga hinaing
Nung nawala siya anjan ka pa din

Then everything came so evidently
Little by little every hello meant something
It’s weird, it’s funny yet it’s so true
This feeling I have for her suddenly flipped to you

No, this is something I can’t handle any more
So everything is written in this messed poem
This is how karma plays with my destiny
Everything seems like a foolish story

Angel in disguise

Oh hale the beauty of Aphrodite from within
Thou art captivated by her seductive body
The cradle of her sweet voice echoing
Her mysterious aura gives calm in him
Nonetheless, she condemned him to solitude
Then everything means nothing to him
All his reasons become blind
She’s an angel in disguise

Best

I don’t want to be the best. I just want to be better than yesterday.

Venus

I surrendered everything to thee
wherefore did she left me alone?
Yet we are once thou art merry
by her smile thy heart captured
whither you are goin’ let me go
whence your doubt came from?
Thou prayin’ calling unto deity’s
Thy true love offered to thee
To shew to thee true love I cried
She hath killed me many times
O you Venus come back to me
Yea, honor my love beg to be
Undistinguished sorrow eyne can’t see
Trapped in cold solitude waitin’ free
Rest assured ours forever we will be
