unan ang naging kaibigan sa tuwing ako'y luhaan
unan ang naging sandalan sa panahong ika'y nagpaalam
gabi-gabing umiiyak, kahit ano-ano ang sumasagip sa isipan
salamat at palagi mo akong dinadamayan sa oras ng kawalan

A rainy night featuring the ***** street, you smiled to me as we sit
You said a word and grabbed a sheet, I admired you for your quick wit
You grabbed your phone and called your sweet, I still thought that night was lit
We ran away with our ***** feet, wondering would we ever fit?

I was a disaster when we met each other
My wounds weren't healed yet, from the person whom I wanted to be my lover
Twelve months sober, days became harder
She was my whole book but I was only her chapter

How To Write The Perfect Poem
So you want to write a poem
The world will want to view
One that is so perfect
It will change a life or two
You can try to make it funny
And make the readers laugh
Or maybe a love story
That will bring a feeling back
You can try to bring them into it
Let them feel the pain
Show them their's a different side
A new path they can take
You can let them see deep within
Give them something new
Have them ask a question
Or answer one for you
You can write the perfect poem
If it's what you want to do
Just take the time and feel the words
That are deep inside of you
But know that many poems of the past
They get read by very few
Still each poem, your poem is just perfect
If it touches only you
Write your perfect poem

Pen to paper...

A poetic
inconsistency.

take your time
avoid excessive
prose and ...similar sounding couplets
Be real
Speak truth
deep from your gut
but know when to lie
to still make a buck
Know your audience
But write for yourself
and get used to the currency
Praise = Wealth
Always trust the process
But never
under any circumstance
process the trust
you'll never stop worrying
if each line is enough
AND REMEMBER!
There are thousands of words
so read 'em and know 'em
Now stop reading this
and go write a poem!
