Beautifully Broken

Panahon at Pagkakataon

Sana may oras pa… Madagdagan pa ng oras na makasama kita. Kulang ang mga nakaw na sandali, ang mga halik sa labi, mga hawak sa aking pisngi, mga yakap na saglit. Kulang pa, kulang pa. Sa lahat ng gusto pang ipakita, ipadama at ibigay. Sa ikli ng panahon sana nadama Continue Reading

Embrace of Uncertain Love

In tender moments, don’t hold me close, If in the end, your absence grows. Don’t weave a web of care so fine, If heartache’s shadow is your design. For kind gestures, like fleeting stars, Shouldn’t mask inevitable scars. If departure waits at journey’s bend, Let’s not pretend, just comprehend. A Continue Reading

Rain

Woke up late today, with the rain singing outside my window pane. It’s official, coffee, bed, and cuddle season is here. Cold wind brings in the heavy feeling of how lonely my life is. Woong and Yeon-su make me love and laugh but also cries out of jealousy of what Continue Reading

08/18/23 | 3:01 AM Oh how I long to have to feel to experience that kind of love.   A love like Wade and Ember, or Vier to Dalia, or Mikee to Alex, or any other love stories in books or movies. A love that accepts. A love that listens. Continue Reading

How can you be happy without me?

I can resemble our love to a chess game, you resigned when I am about to move my next piece. Truly, your final move shatters me. I’m about to show you the best version but you left. How can I forget you, my first love. The man whom I first Continue Reading

Admiring you, from afar

I still remember the first day we met, I still remember our first conversation, our shared stories, I still remember the first day you affirmed me, I remember the first day you stared at me while singing in an event, I remember our first photo together with our best smiles, Continue Reading
