buwan
With poetry flowing in my veins and galaxies growing inside me.
Unti-unti nang pinapalitan ng kadiliman ang langit na kanina'y kay liwa-liwanag pa. Nakaupo ka sa aking tabi, tumitingala sa langit habang ang puso ko'y bumibilis ang pagtibok habang lumilipas ang mga sekundo. Kasabay ng pagpintig sa kalalim-laliman ng aking sarili, ay ang pagbaba ng mainit na araw na sumisikat sa atin at ginagawang mala-ginto ang iyong kutis; kapalit nito ang maluwalhati na buwan na kasing hugis ng iyong nakakaginhawa na mga mata kapag ika'y tumatawa. Ang sansinukob ay napakalaki at maraming mailalaman; at hindi ko papalapgpasin ang pagkakataon, kahit kailan, na ipaghambing ka roon. Maaaring napakaliit ng iyong katawan, ngunit ang puso **** pagkalaki-laki ay punong puno ng pagmamahal. Ikaw. Ikaw ang aking sansinukob at ang pagmamahal ko ay para sa iyo lamang. Kinuha mo ang aking kamay at hinalikan, ako'y iyong tinanong kung ano nga ba ang nasa isip ko; kaunti nalang ay hindi ko na mapipigilan ang sarili ko at isisigaw ko ang iyong pangalan ng paulit-ulit upang sagutin ng diretso. Ang aking pagkahaling sayo'y katulad ng kalangitan; maaari mang magkaroon ng kadiliman ay babalik parin sa dating anyo na kay ningning. Ikaw ang nagsasabit ng buwan sa langit bawat gabi at ako naman ang tagawilig ng kumikinang na mga bituin sa iyo. Hindi tayo makukumpleto kung wala ang isa't isa, kaya ako'y humihiling bawat gabi na tayo'y hindi magwawalay sa isa't isa. Ninanais ko na ang iyong puso ay habang-buhay na titibok para sa akin, dahil alam ko na ang akin ay titibok para lamang din sa iyo.

It's the subtle touches— ones that resemble the lightning striking the unaware— that make my heart bleed more and more. My lovesick mind whispers to my equally lovesick soul, telling my own self in a hushed lullaby to hold onto you for dear life. Words slip out of my mouth like how you let the hearty chuckles escape out of yours; and I ask you if you wanted the sun, the moon, or the stars. You have it all, I think, you have the whole night sky, and you are just as heavenly. The ink I guide spreads on your skin, and it faintly resembles the darkness painting the sky once the sun sets. A half moon then appears on your left hand. A voice inside my head, yet again, tells me that the only thing missing is an array of stars; but fear not, my love, you have all of the galaxies in this ****** universe within you. As you sit back and admire the work my shaky hands did on your skin, my vision goes hazy and my thoughts that were once filled with you suddenly are replaced by melancholic reflections instead. As much as I love these celestial attractions of the macrocosm we live in, I can't help but think that maybe the universe and my lucky stars aren't with me on this. And maybe our paths don't cross, but I'll always hold these small moments close to my heart; and I'll always think of you when I look up at the moon on cold evenings that make me tremble because of the lack of warmth, whether it be figuratively, or in a literal manner.

half moon
You, my dear, are a mystery. I often leave deep crescents on the palm of my hand— leaving them throbbing a shade of crimson— whenever i get frustrated. And, well, I would be lying if I said that you didn't ever frustrate me. Hell, you frustrate me all the time. You're a mystery not craving to be solved, but nonetheless still leaves everyone wanting to be able to find the answer to a question—unexplainable by any thing besides you. You're a mystery and I'm just someone who wants to unravel you.

unravel
I still have hopes. You stare at your book through your circular spectacles— carob eyes hinted with specks of caramel hidden within the fragile glass as your fingers daintily flip through the parchment-colored pages. Your pearly teeth sinks mildly onto your bottom lip, lightly chewing on the soft flesh as your eyes trace every word. With your nose crinkling, your cheeks rubicund, and your messy hair slightly falling just before your eyes; I realized that you were such a wonderful thing to observe so thoroughly, and I realized that maybe, just maybe, I was falling for you harder than I intended to. I still have hopes that I may be able to tell you how beautiful you are; how you seem so oblivious of my admiration for you— but for now, I could only stare at you and drown in the thoughts of not being able to call you mine.

unspoken confession
i would gladly burn out myriads of stars in the sky and sprinkle the ashes on your beautiful soul until the only thing flowing through your veins are stardust and meteors and shooting stars and rockets and i'd just hope that you don't feel as empty anymore

if you ever feel empty
cream skin glistening, hit by the lights screams echoing throughout the whole night dedication and enthusiasm, clear on your face if only you knew how frantically my heart is picking up its pace filling the air were cheers of your name my soul felt like it has been ignited with flames and no matter how hard i try, i could never extinguish it, now i know that it will burn forever i thanked the stars from afar for bringing me to you for just one time our fates collided and we did not get misguided every trial i've been put through, my love, i overcame it all for you everything is worth it if the reward is meeting you

for the lovesick lovers and the victims of tragedies
i will always be the song you always skip on your playlist if only you played the song enough number of times then the symphony might have been stuck in your head how sad it is for you to not have listened to an unravelled, beautiful mystery

sweet symphonies
the marmalade sun will set just before the blanket of stars pull through the night sky the clock will strike twelve whilst everyone's dozing off and to the previous day we'd wave goodbye
