Salome
I pray that my feelings Shall soon pass With the hand of clock As it moves the time so fast. For six years, I dreamt. I hoped. I waited. All I hear now From the mouth of fate "Let there be nothing," And truly, there's none.

It Was Nothing After All
Sa bawat paggalaw ng iyong kamay Sa bawat paghampas ng kulay mula sa iyong kaluluwa Tila nilalason ang isipan ko Sinasabing kay ganda ng lahat ng mayroon sa’yo Hindi maikukubli sa aking mga salita Ang paghanga sa lahat ng kung sino ka Nangingislap ito mula sa ilaw Na nanggagaling mula sa pagkatao na pagmamay-ari mo Umaalab ka ngunit hindi mo pansin Mapapaso ang sinomang lalapit sa’yo Ngunit pipilitin nilang mahagkan ka Sapagkat ikaw ang katuparan ng pangarap nila Pinutol mo ang sarili **** mga pakpak Kaya naman hindi mo naaatim Ang yaring tayog na iyong taglay Kung makakalipad ka lamang sana Likas sa’yo ang nais mo Kumakatok ako’t nakikiusap Gumising ka, marikit na binibini At kamtan mo ang matagal nang nasa iyo

Ikaw Din Ang Siyang Nais Mo
Eyes that are close to tears Mind in sudden chaos Heart feeling betrayed Have I assumed by myself That what we had was a blooming love? Was my illusion remained a visualization Of what I hope would lead to realization? How could pain exist As a product of laughter and glee? And how did your once sweet words To my ears become the sound of a tempest? You call me a dude You call her my love To you, I remain a buddy And she, a damsel so dear I apologize for the unreturned messages But you don’t have to be sorry For not reciprocating The sensation I feel for you

Unreciprocated
Refrain from wanting to live, my heart says, breathe then you could live.

Oh life.
One day I was asked, “what is Happiness?” Words could not make its way out of my lips, Ideas could not be constructed inside my head, There was pure silence apart from the heavy sighs I was emitting, I was totally dumbfounded. But being a disturbed thinker that I was, I began to sail in the rivers of my mind And flew across the freeways of my thoughts. I searched for the answer desperately And I wouldn’t stop until I meet him face to face. I came across Money. He said he could me give me anything and bring me to anywhere. “That is what happiness is all about – having everything and being everywhere”, he told me. And I nodded. Money must be right; he must be my happiness! “No!” Knowledge screamed in complete disgust, “With me, you will find all the answers you wish to seek!” I could be someone, she guaranteed And I would see things that others could not see I would be superior above all mankind and that must be what happiness is about! Relationship then came like a devouring fire, “How dare you listen to them!” he said with a sting. “I have been with you from the moment you set your eyes upon the world Families, friends, beloved – without me, you won’t know what joy is I am your only happiness.” To be fair, I made a company of them all, But all failed to give me a satisfying answer. Money blinded me about the importance of little things. Knowledge consumed my heart and brought me so much pride it led to my downfall. Relationship took all of me; didn’t leave anything for myself and run away. Then He came knocking at my door, As I was wretchedly crying my heart out. He told me He knew the answer to my question, I told Him, “No! I have searched for it But there was no answer.” “I am the answer”, He simply said. “I won’t give you happiness, But I will make you know and experience it.” And He did by dying for me 2,000 years ago.

Seeing you smile is gulping water In the middle of a long hike Hearing you talk is peeing at last After a 5-hour non-stop ride Dreaming of you is eating tons Without gaining a pound Loving you is the happy feeling Of escaping from an angry hound Oh I want you like the genes that run In the Beckham clan Don’t you know how cool you are That you should be banned? But when I see you with the girl Whose character I hate the most I star in a movie Being haunted by a ghost My odd beauty And this curvy body Plus a pool of confidence Is all I have So I’m hoping That it will be enough for you To say, “I like you too!” And to my wish will lead to “I love you too!”

To the friends that I had yesterday With names that make me gay The moments that we had together Are the moments that I always want to gather I laugh with myself alone Remembering the jokes that crushes our bones I, at the same time, cry in silence Feeling the gloomy presence of your absence It’s been years, I couldn’t count exactly Since the time we’ve eaten so hungrily And I tell you, I don’t want to be particular with the years Because for certain, it will only bring my eyes to tears Whenever I think of you And feel this way I tell my heart to feel every second of it So it will be much sweeter when we soon meet I want you to know That as we individually grow Hopeful I am that we will again gather And share a table of packed lunch and laughter

To The Friends I Had Yesterday
She was there when the battle was won Dressed in the purest form of light Even so when the agony was raging and bold Asha was whispering happy and bright She was covered in dirt and stains But in the cleanest clothes as well Experiencing dark and pain Although suffering was never in the way Asha was always present Needed or not she was there Be it a devastating event Or an hour of victorious affair She helps you to get up From a calamitous fall And inspires you to reconstruct Dreams broken together with the walls Asha is ubiquitous Asha is everywhere Hope is ubiquitous Hope is everywhere Because Asha and hope is one
