Boiling Waters
I saw your face emerge from the clouds. You carried the light and there I was found. The glee from within I really couldn’t hide. You said the light will always be bright. But just as the sky was enveloped by the dark, The light was slowly moving out of Continue Reading
One day, I won’t remember. I won’t remember how you always appear in my dreams when I sleep.Then the morning after, I would get a “You think of me too much” smirk. One day, I won’t remember. I won’t remember how you can go on for hours telling stories, just Continue Reading
Nakilala kita sa kahapon, kahapon na may lungkot sa iyong mata, kahapon na pariwara ang iyong mga paa, kahapon na ang puso mo ay mahina, kahapon na akala mo wala ng pag asa. Minahal kita sa kahapon, kahapon na akala kong totoo ka, kahapon na akala kong napasaya kita, kahapon na akala kong di ka mawawala, kahapon na akala kong di ka mabubura. Ginamit mo ko sa kahapon, tinuruan kitang sumaya, diba? tinuruan kitang magmahal, tama ba? tinulungan kita sa pangarap mo, Continue Reading

It’s not about your friends who are engaged or getting married. It’s not about your aunts and uncles asking when will you bring your partner in a family event. It’s not about your acquaintances making sarcastic jokes about not getting younger and finding the one. It’s not about your workmates Continue Reading
Sinusubukan mong hawakan Ang aking mga kamay Sa panahon na ako ay nasa dilim Habang ang damdami’y kinikimkim Sapagkat dapat itong ilihim Nang minsa’y iyong hagkan Nawala lahat ng aking lumbay Pero kahit na aking aminin Alam kong ito’y hindi para sakin Kaya ibinulong nalang lahat sa hangin Sabay natin Continue Reading
Para sa’yo na nagsabi sa akin ng hindi, Gusto ko lang sabihin na salamat sa’yo, Salamat sa’yo dahil sa paghindi mo, Mas nakilala ko lalo ang sarili ko. Inakala ko noon pareho ating damdamin, Iyon pala ay ako lang ang umatim, Akala ko noon ngiti mong matamis dahil sa akin, Continue Reading
Hi, The first day that we met, I never knew that I will love you so much like this. I never knew that once stranger into my eyes, will be the person I’d dream to be with for the rest of my life. I never knew that you’d be so Continue Reading

Walang Titulo By: EDILYN GARCIA ANGELES “Tayo na ba?” Ito ang tanong na nais kong sambitin, Sa mga panahong puso’y tila nabibitin, Hindi ko kasi alam kung ikaw ay akin, Sa kadahilanang ikaw’y tila pipi. Sa panahong hawak mo aking mga kamay, Mga daliri’y magkahulagpong tila ayaw maghiwalay, Pero ng Continue Reading

Dati iniisip ko kung kaya pa ba.Dinadama ko kung mahal pa kita.Nagtatanong sa sarili ko kung kaya ko ba.Kung kaya kong iwan ka kahit mahal pa kita. Mahal kita!Yan ang dalawang salita na sinabi mo sakin nung una.Na handa mong sungkitin sa langit ang mga tala.Na hindi ako mawawala sa Continue Reading
Verse I Masarap magmahal kung ikaw. Mahirap masaktan dahil ikaw. Iiyak at mamatay dahil ikaw. Walang ibang dahilan kundi ikaw. REFRAIN: Itutuloy ko pa ba? Itutuloy ko pa ba? CHORUS: Sobrang sakit na. Sa pagibig ko sayo Titiisin na ang hapdi. Uulitin ko pa ba?. VERSE II Uulit sa umpisa Continue Reading
Hi J! It’s been days since the last time we talked. What happened? Why are you so quiet lately? I am contemplating a lot. More so, overthinking. Please allow me to say these things that are running in my head. This is a long one. Please bear with me. I Continue Reading
Hindi ko namalayan ang pag-ikot ng mga sandali. Parang isang tigang na naghihintay sa butil na patak ng tatlong segundo. Hihinga ng malalim at aakalaing maramdaman pa. Prisensya mo’y hinahanap-hanap sa pagyakap ng kalungkutang pinahabilin mo. Sanay na ako… nasasanay na ako…. Unti unting lumalayo sakin ang pangarap na sumibol Continue Reading

I have been a risk taker before but not for relationships. Everything changed and you’re the best risk I ever took. We’ve been friends and maybe mere acquaintances before. Actually, we’ve been classmates in high school and time passed by, it stayed the same. Recently, everything changed for me and Continue Reading
Nakikita mo naman diba? At kahit saan ka lumingon lagi mo itong masisilayan. Sa nanay at tatay mo, sa ate at sa bayaw mo Pero bakit hindi mo makita? Katulad lang ito sa pinapakita ng mga love team sa paborito mong koreanovela. Parehong kilig lang naman sa tuwing nagngingitian sila Continue Reading
I had given my heart to someone freely Accepted that person completely And loved him unconditionally Even his imperfections perfectly For years, we had been together He only wounded me deeper Told me he’s never been my lover Made me learned that there’s no forever You already have someone in Continue Reading
Dear love, My greatest what-if; the greatest almost that did not fall off to where we decide it to go. For we thought, we were too young to fall in love with each other and that we still embraced our heartβ tied on it, like we were made for one Continue Reading
Dear You, I’ve learned a lot from what we had yesterday. You taught me grace. You taught me love. You taught me patience. You taught me hope. I’ve been growing because of what we had yesterday. And because of you leaving, I found more of myself. I found my strengths, Continue Reading
Dear You, I wonder how it happened. But it started somewhere. Everything starts at somewhere… Somewhere between my mind and my heart, I found something wonderful. Something that made me believe again. Somewhere along the aisle of my life, I found your words. Your words that was tested through time. Continue Reading

Dear You, Tayo’y masaya at nananahimik. Paglipas ng panahon, ako’y sayo’t ika’y akin. Ngunit bakit nawala sa ihip ng hangin? Anong nangyari sa atin? Sabi mo kailangan mo ng pahinga. Sabi mo kailangan mo ng space. Sabi mo kailangan mo ng oras. Sabi mo kailangan mo ng timing. Ngunit bakit Continue Reading
