we write because we are told
we write because we are cold
so why write poetry?
is it to obey
is it to simply misbehave
is it due today
is it more than what we say
if not
why do you write poetry?
because I can
&
because I am
we are made to feel
we are made to speak
some people are quiet
and others are bleak
words are expressive and alive
but some words are best left to die

She said "I'm falling in love."
I said "I'm falling apart."

her joy looked so genuine that i didn't want her laughter to end.
thinking of how laughter could cause so much pain.

If you were a book,
I'd read you again.
If you were a ride,
I'd wait in line.
If you were my dream,
I'd never awaken.
If you were a star,
I'd never look down.
If you were a flower,
I'd never look up.
If you were mine,
I don't know what I'd do;
But I'd do it.

Don't tell me I'm pretty
Tell me that I'm passionate
That I have drive
Tell me that I make you laugh
That I know how to make your day better
Don't tell me I seem nice
Tell me that I'm kind and compassionate
Tell me that I'm not afraid to dream and to dream big
Don't tell me I'm perfect
Tell me the you love me despite my flaws
That you want to spend the rest of your life with me
Don't tell me I'm beautiful
Tell me that you'll be faithful and forever true

I write
I write the truth
I write what I feel
And what I don't
I write
I write about me
I write about you
Letters of truth
I write
I write my love
I write my pain
And everything in between
My writing is the closest you'll ever get to the real me

Sasanayin kita
sa mga bati sa umaga
sa kamusta,
sa nakauwi ka na ba,
sa mga tula,
sa mga tagping tugma,
at wag kang mag-alala
hindi lang 'to sa umpisa
Ano bang meron
sa’ting dalawa?
Na pati ako'y
naguguluhan na
Mga matatamis na salita
Hindi ko alam kung totoo na ba
Sabihin mo pagka’t
Akoy unti-unting
nahuhulog na.

I love the way you look at me,
I love the way you make me so happy
and the ways you show you care.
I love the way you say " I Love You"
I love the way you touch me,
always sending chills down my spine.
I love that you are with me,
and glad that you are mine.
