The Real Art of Letting Go

They say it’s always easy to love someone unconditionally. But how can you love someone who can’t even love you back? I’m asking myself many times why. Honestly? I had no idea. They always say that love is a magical feeling. In reality, it’s not magical. It’s just there, existing in ages. The truth is,… Continue reading The Real Art of Letting Go

What really is love?

What really is love? Love. It’s either gonna make you a winner or not. It’s the risk we always want to take, but is it always worth the risk? How can you love someone who doesn’t even feel the same way that you always do? Is love always one way ticket or not? But love… Continue reading What really is love?

Love will make it right again

You had the courage to risk for love,Without reservations you gave your all,Thought it was an answered prayer from above,Why then would you hold back? You were brave to challenge fate,Believing love would fight for you,To hold your heart with gentleness and care,To overcome all trials and uncertainties, You let down your guards,To a love… Continue reading Love will make it right again

Lost Time

We all met someone in our early days that we dreamt of becoming our future. We’ve spent months and years to sharpen and become our perfect selves thinking that it will all be worth it. But dear, life isn’t like that. As we are going through the process of what we called life, we didn’t… Continue reading Lost Time

Kahit Na

Sa ‘sanlibong mga tanong at pagdududa,Sa kabila ng kanilang pagtataka,Kung paanong pinili natin ang isa’t isaSa kabila ng ating pagkakaiba,Nais kong ipabatid sa iyoNa hawak mo ang puso ko.Marami ang magtataas ng kilay,Sapagkat ang sabi nila’y hindi tayo bagay.Ngunit mali sila,Sapagkat marami kang ipinadama,Na kailanman ay hindi makikitang kanilang mga mata.Kahit na sinasabi nila,Isang pagkakamali… Continue reading Kahit Na

PIPILIIN

Nasa proseso tayo kung saan muli nating kinikilala ang isa’t isa. Bagamat hindi naman ito ang una nating pagtatangka, subalit sa puntong ito, pinili ko na ang tumaya. Hindi dahil sa wala na akong iba pang pagpipilian pero pinili ko ang piliin ka. Sa unang pagkakataon, gusto kong malaman mo na iniwan ko ang lugar… Continue reading PIPILIIN

I Love You From The Bottom of My Hypothalamus

When I glanced at you for the first time, I felt a little jump in my heart. Woah. That was unexpected! I remember briefly how my breathing hitched when I looked at you. It was so… odd. No one has ever made me feel that way at first glance. I don’t believe in love at… Continue reading I Love You From The Bottom of My Hypothalamus

“Patawad, Paalam, Salamat”

“Paalam” is letting go of people you wanted to keep in your life. “Patawad” is freeing yourself of the pain from your past. I found this tweet [non-verbatim] from Moira dela Torre (a Christian and singer/songwriter whom I really super admire a lot) while scrolling on my Twitter feed a few weeks ago. It also… Continue reading “Patawad, Paalam, Salamat”

Can You Really Love Without Expecting Anything in Return?

Madalas kaming magpunta sa bahay ng lola namin sa probinsya tuwing mayroong mahabang bakasyon: kadalasan tuwing mahal na araw at pasko hanggang bagong taon. Matanda na si lola and we call her “Inang”. Mag-isa na lang s’yang nakatira sa bahay nila at paminsan-minsan binibisita s’ya ng mga anak at apo n’ya na mas malapit sa… Continue reading Can You Really Love Without Expecting Anything in Return?

SA GITNA NG KAWALAN

Nahuli kong muli ang sarili ko ngayong gabi na nalulunod sa mga ideya patungkol sa iyo. Nagkamali ako sa pag-aakalang, wala nang katiting na nararamdaman, ngunit heto ako’t muling napapa-isip, muling nagtataka. Bakit nandito na naman ako sa sitwasyong napagdaanan na? Paano nangyaring hinihintay na naman kita? Paulit-ulit kong ipinaalala sa sarili ko, na hindi… Continue reading SA GITNA NG KAWALAN

Dear God,

I was supposed to write for my Future Husband, but I found it only fitting to write first to You – my first and true Love. Nothing compares to You. You continued to love me like I was the most precious possession You had. I wouldn’t have believed that the one who knows me best could… Continue reading Dear God,

My ALMOST

As I am writing this post, I am scrolling through old scribbles and notes which had me recall a time where I experienced an almost relationship. It was probably the hardest breakup(in a sense with myself since we never really did have one) that I had to go through. We all might not admit it… Continue reading My ALMOST

We’re friends

It feels good to fall in love. It feels good to feel loved. Was it still good if you catch yourself having feelings for a friend? Friendship turns into romantic relationship is common nowadays, but still it feels different–for me. He was my safe zone. He is the only one I can open up to.… Continue reading We’re friends

“Siguro-Tayo”

Muli kang nagparamdam kagabi. Sabagay, madali lang naman ang bumati sa sandali na maalala mo. Napansin mo pala, na ang mga nakaraang mensahe ko ay ‘di na katulad nang dati sa kung paano tayo nag-uusap, sabi mo, parang hindi na ako interesado. Mali ka, hindi sa hindi na ako interesado, pero ayaw ko lang na… Continue reading “Siguro-Tayo”

A great hard wall

Do you ever feel the downside of singleness? Being alone, no one to share your day with–kind of things. Do you once want to feel romantic love? But, there is this “wall” that even you can’t overcome. You healed from your past but you didn’t realize that while you’re on the process of healing, you… Continue reading A great hard wall

The Night The Moon Fell

I was looking for the moon at the roof deck of our dormitory but unfortunately, no moon appeared. So, with a heavy heart, I sighed. “Is it already new moon?” I asked him. “But it was full moon four nights ago,” I continued. He was looking at the sky too. I guessed he was thinking… Continue reading The Night The Moon Fell

Someday Love Will Find Me

I never thought of love as something complicated. I had my first love when I was fifteen. Such a thrilling experience for a young heart. Everything seemed perfect. But the depths of love can’t just be fathomed when our hearts are not yet ready to discover its depth. Still, in love there’s pain. I had… Continue reading Someday Love Will Find Me
