Falling, failing and waiting

Where do I start? I’m just sitting here. I got so much in mind, but nothing’s done yet. I love to try things, but never had the consistency. I like doing things afraid, I am courageous that way. I appear confident, but deep down I’m really insecure.  I feel in Continue Reading

My beautiful goodbye

Do you believe that everyone deserves a second chance in love? Well, for me, yes, but not a second chance as lovers. At, some point in time, we will meet someone who will go to drive us crazy in love.   Someone, who will make us believe that happy ever Continue Reading

Pait ng Nakaraan

Sa totoo lang hindi ko alam panu magsisimula Kung panu ilalahad nararamdaman ko sa tula. Tuwing naiisip ka ako’y nauutal na Pagkat hindi sapat ang bawat salita na naglalarawan kung gano mo nasaktan aking nararamdaman. Lumilipas na pala ang mga araw na wala ka Unti unti ko ng natatanggap ang Continue Reading

One day… I will stop

Dear Y, I met you when I wasn’t looking for love. We were both broken… You said you don’t want to risk again and that’s ok. But I know, something doesn’t seems right. You were being nice, you were always there and I promise to always listen to you.   Continue Reading

11pm-3

Hey , it’s your 11 pm thoughts Ringing a bell inside your head tonight Though uninvited, I’ll come in running Filling your head, overflowing, Spilling random scenes of what had happened What is, and what will. So open now your windows and let air in Or get out the balcony Continue Reading

Like a Shooting Star

You’re a star right at the night sky And I’m a lonely girl from here Stretch my hand up to your direction Trust Earth’s pull call gravitation Hoping maybe somehow you’d fall Oh I often think you’re light shines just for me Yet it is an open sky, wide and Continue Reading

Our Blemishes

Often, we find it hard to reconcile with our imperfections. We try to hide our insecurities behind the rugs of false confidence. We try to conceal our weary hearts with forced love. We try to bury our haunting thoughts, in practiced smiles and nod, leaving us exhausted and lost by Continue Reading

Coming

I was left with nothing but countless fears, A thousand scars and million tears All lurking and falling for the same name- The name that both built me and played me like a game. I came championing my resilience Now I am tucked in, breaking in silence. It is quite Continue Reading

Not Even…Until…

Not even the most painful moments Could ever put me to write. Not even the happiest and most silent hours Could ever make my thoughts align. I was barren with words that used to conceive The biggest ideas of how to stitch them To make a tapestry of poems. I Continue Reading

Garden of Prayer

They say love is an action word A verb to show, more than a noun to say Perhaps, I was born in that accord To show love in plotted chord To hint it in a pen, To freeze it in a paper, And to hide it from a lover. I Continue Reading

In Here

I couldn’t love you in any other way. Maybe I’ll keep you in just here- In sentences arranged to pretty paragraphs In lines and verses, In stanzas that so often do not rhyme. Maybe it’s just in poems That my dream of love be closer to reality Because I can Continue Reading

Ways to Abandon your Self Worth

Saying “Yes” when deep inside you ache to say “No” because you know it doesn’t align with your values. Chasing someone who doesn’t care about you. Being stuck in the past and not being able to move forward and enjoy the present time. Over explaining your truth to someone who Continue Reading

I already know, darling.

What a tragedy — the look on my face as I looked my best to stand and assume that I was the one your soul longs. I’ve fought long and hard to pursue your heart and I wondered why it was a cold, hard, and locked up case. There was Continue Reading

Ang Munting Hiling

O anong saya makasama ang Panginoon! Mula nang tinanggap ko siya hanggang ngayon, ‘Di Niya ako itinaksil, ‘Di Niya ako itinakwil, Binigay Niya ang kanyang buhay, Kalayaa’y aking nakamtan nang tunay, Panginoon, buhay ko’y aking iaalay sa Iyo, Para ako’y Iyong gamitin sa mundo, Imulat sila sa katotohanan, Na lahat Continue Reading

The toxicity of cancel culture

I show care genuinely to model you how to value me because I feel hardly unnoticed. Moment by moment I provide you assurance since I know the feeling of insignificance. Yet, you see it on the other way. You thought I am playing around and you’re one of it. If Continue Reading

Question From Our Frustration

(PART TWO) First, I was an introvert a long time ago, before I knew what it was called. I remember my senior years, when I preferred to watch my classmates ruin the classroom’s blackboard (well its green thou) with their stupid thing they called artwork. I’m just listening to the Continue Reading

How I Wish

How I wish it could’ve been you and me, A simple request but just couldn’t be. So much for the dream that I would’ve behold, Not all that glitters, sadly, is gold. A wish wrongly conceived is a nightmare to be, Rushing like a boat against the raging sea. Oh, Continue Reading

The unforgettable birthday gift

In the most unexpected moment of my silver year, I received a gift like no other – my first love’s heartbreaking breakup. It hit me hard, turning my world upside down, and strangely, the universe seemed to align it on the 25th day of my birth month in my 25 Continue Reading

Chapter 1: the meet up

Humid air, and moisture on the restaurant door. I never needed anything more to begin again. I’ve been spending the last eight months thinking all about love if ever it breaks and burns and ends so fast. But you sat there at the bus stop, you got there early and Continue Reading

Hanggang Ngayon

Tapos na tayo diba Pero bakit hindi ako makaahon sa katotohanan na wala na tayo. Na tapos na lahat ng mga araw na ikaw ang mundo ko at ako ang buhay mo. Lumilipas na ang mga araw mula nung naghiwalay tayo Pero hanggang ngayon hinahanap hanap ko parin yung mga Continue Reading

Ang Sakit Pala

Akala ko pagnatapos na satin lahat sasaya na ako Lalaya na ako sa paghihintay sa taong ako’y binabalewala Na kahit gawin ko lahat ako sayo’y walang halaga Kulang nalang ipagtabuyan mo pag wala kang gana o pag ayaw mo na akong makita O pag wala kang oras dahil abala ka Continue Reading

Masarap yung Sinigang?

18 days, 14 hours, and 15 minutes When I ask you “Masarap yung sinigang?” and you replied, “Hi! thank you for accepting 🙂 “ and so I chat you back with “Welcome…to my world.” Every 11 hours of the day, you greet me good morning.I notice the consistency… No one Continue Reading
