Nagsangang Landas
Ang mga yakap na nagmula sa hindi inaasahang pinanggalingan ay nagbigay ng kakaiba at panibagong sigla. Ang init na sinimulang ipadama ay naghatid sa isang maligayang paglalakbay na ni sa talang buhay ay hindi naisip na magaganap. Ngunit ang mga haplos na inasahang magiging habang-buhay na bahagi ng pagkatao ay unti-unting naglaho. Malabo. Nabitin. Naiwan.… Continue reading Nagsangang Landas
Loosening Grasp
Holding on for too long She finally reached the end. Knowing that her hope is in vain She finally chose to bend. She suffered long enough So she loosened her grasp. She decided to quit from the misery she’s in For she knows that the love they have will not last. With cuts… Continue reading Loosening Grasp
Kasunduan
Hindi ba’t tayo’y may kasunduan?“Walang iwanan hanggang dulo, pangako yan!”Ngunit bakit ngayon ay nag-iisaNangungulila sa iyong pagsinta Bakit naiwan akong nag-iisa at sabik na sabikSabik sa iyong mga yakap at halikNangungulila at nanabikKahit na alam kong kailanma’y di na babalik Pumikit ako at binalikanLahat ng alaalang pinagsamahanNagsimula nang ngiti mo ay masilayanHanggang sa nagkaroon ng… Continue reading Kasunduan
Letting you go – Setting me free
I liked you from the beginning but lo and behold now it’s ending When things didn’t even start You came in and caused a ripple in my heart You seemed to know the magic – Making me feel like this love affair wouldn’t be so tragic My whole world didn’t feel like it was hanging… Continue reading Letting you go – Setting me free

Hindi na Muli
Unti-unti na akong nasasanay sa mga malalamig mong reply. Unti-unti ko na din natutunan na wag ng maghintay. Sa mga “OK” mong sagot, na para bang napipilitan pa. Kahit na ang tanong ko naman ay kung “Kumain ka na ba?” Hindi na din ako magsesend ng mga Good Morning text. Hindi na din kita gagawan… Continue reading Hindi na Muli
Ayaw Mo Na
Naaalala ko pa, mga linyang iyong binitawan, na kahit anong mangyare, wag kitang iiwanan.Pero bakit ngayon, mga pakiusap mo tila ako na ang nagbibigkas.At ang tali na nagdudugtong sa ating dalawa, ay nalalapit ng mapigtas. Diba sabi mo noon, ako lang at wala ng iba.Walang sino man ang makakapag hiwalay sa ating dalawa.Ngunit ihip ng… Continue reading Ayaw Mo Na

100% Red
I am in a relationship with coffee. In an affair with green tea too. Whichever is available really. But mainly, I am in love with red wine. I have developed a taste for its health and aging benefits. The other two are just my flings. On the Spot. In a relationship. Metaphor. Creative mode. The… Continue reading 100% Red

Carmen
Mas lalo akong naging masaya ngayon, At ako ngayo’y pinagbigyan mo, Hayaan mong iparamdam ko sa’yo, Ang tamis ng aking puso. Lilikha tayo ng mga alaala, Kahit saan man tayo gumala, Ikaw lang basta ang kasama, Titibok ito ng walang sawa. Ang akin lamang ay huwag kang manawa, At mag-isip ng mga hindi magaganda, Nais… Continue reading Carmen

Our Escape
Nagsimula ang lahat sa isang kanta Sa kung paano nabalot ang puso ng saya Saya na dulot ng himig ng iyong musika At hinaplos ang puso sa bawat bagsak ng letra Sabay sa iyong awit, ang boses mo’y mapang-akit Nabighani sa damdaming ibinubuhos sa bawat titik Ibig na ninanamnam habang mata’y nakapikit Ramdam ang nais… Continue reading Our Escape
When i was, When you were

I keep on finding and chasing after you yet you keep on running and hiding towards me. I lost… Continue reading When i was, When you were
Sa pagitan ng simula at wakas
Hindi ko alam paano sisimulanIsang liham na sayo’y ilalaanMga bagay na aking ikinababahalaHeto’t aking ilalathala Ako’y nadadala sa iyong mga titigAnimo’y may gustong ipahiwatigMga salitang hindi ko kayang paniwalaanSapagkat ito’y di makatotohanan Ngunit ang puso’y tila iba ang naisNadadala sa iyong mga galaw na kay tamisSapat na nga ba na ako’y umasaKahit sa iyo’y walang… Continue reading Sa pagitan ng simula at wakas
PAANO??
Hindi ko alam kung paano sisimulan ang istorya ng ating pag mamahalan. Dahil sa simula plang nman natapos na ang ating kwentong ako lang ang may alam. Minsan nga naisip ko na sumuko nlang kasi nakakapagod narin ang mahalin ka. Nakakapagod ng umasa na mapapansin mo pa. Ilang taon na ba mag mula nung una… Continue reading PAANO??
Pangako, ako’y maghihintay.
Kailan nga ba napagtanto ng puso na Ikaw ay gusto ko na? Noon bang ako’y iyong kinamusta? O di kaya noong nagkatinginan tayo ng mata sa mata? Hindi lubos maisip kung bakit nga ba? Nagising ako isang araw, Laman ng isip ay ikaw Ang hinaharap sa aking isipa’y bumalitawtaw. Posible bang tadhana sa atin ay… Continue reading Pangako, ako’y maghihintay.

Obedience
They say it’s right but I know it’s wrong They say it’s okay but I have to say no They said “Come on it’s 2019! Do this with us or be alone.” Temptations keep knocking on my door Temptations that I need to ignore My heart is telling me “Go” But God is telling me… Continue reading Obedience
