Filipino I seek freedom. I seek harmony. I seek chaos. I seek despair. / I am he. I they. I am a shadow. I am Xilhouette.
Not when clouds turn grey Nor when the wind ceases to howl Not when the ground shakes Nor the earth rumbles Not even when mountains erupt Or when the forest sunders Only when Souls tear apart With a sound that makes even the mightiest ones shudder When your mind breaks And you give in to despair Like pillars of cement Coming down to the abyss Only When You seek solace in cigarettes Or see a better life by the bottle Does the world end

When The World Ends
Isa, dalawa, hanggang sampu. Bilang sa daliri ko Ang bilang ng araw na umuwi Ako na hindi lasing Sa pagpasok pa lang Uwi na ang hinahanap Para makapiling Ang kanais nais kong kama Ngunit bago sa pagalis Ay may karamdamang Hindi kakaiba Hindi nakapagtataka Ang pagtawag ng cervesa at tabako Ng aking utak para sa aking katawan Ay dumadagumgdong Sa kaluluwa kong mahina Isang bote isa pa isa pa Isang kaha isa pa tama na tuloy tuloy ang daloy ng alak Sunod sunod Ang buka ng usok Sa pagtulog ubos na ang pakiramdam Ni-pandinig ay sumuko na. Amoy na lang ng amats Ano na ba anng kinahihinatnan Isa Dalawa Tatlo Hanggang sampu Bilang sa aking kamay Ang araw na Hindi ako lasing Ang sigarilyong hindi naubos At ang mga araw na humihinga pa ako

Katapusan
My heart is for rent. Holding a space for one. And do not tell me that you can't In here is home Comfort and solace Like tiny shells being washed by seafoam It is a place for you And you alone The only acceptable who in this world of who's who But maybe one is not enough Oh my dear you are right A space for another, no not a bluff My heart is for rent. It holds space now for two. It holds one for you, The other one for me. Because it is cliche How can you love another, If you cannot love yourself.

My Heart is for Rent.
It's ****** It's gore It's death It's destruction It's pain It's torment It's torture It's suffering It's fear It's uncertainty It's weakness It's every breakdown you could possibly think of All for A moment of peace Pleasure Maybe romance All for one moment of happiness

What does it mean to be human?
Look forward to a day Where today is no longer yesterday Yesterday was fear Yesterdays of uncertainty Of longing. Of only pure liquid coursing through your veins Oh the yesterday where rain is a blessing When the heat You feel is only sunlight Ah a heat lacking lust A dream But look forward to today A today where it is tomorrow And imagine That today is a blessing Today is sunlight Imagine that today there is warmth Now after today After today brings Tomorrow, and tomorrow, and tomorrow A tomorrow of uncertainty Another tomorrow of fear And another And another And another A tomorrow Of dreaming of today Back to yesterday and yesterday

Of empty glasses, And bottles. Only I am None but emptier

In My Eyes
I the onlooker Looks on the tender sweetness Of the bond between Man and woman Woman and man Man to man and Woman to woman A blissful repose Is what a yearn for When the scent of colorful daisies Or the chime of tiny bells Becomes only an apparition; An idea at the back of my mind In front of that one person My mind would be blank, If not of the thought of my love The one's whose light does not shine through my darkness But of the light that casts a further spark into whats left of my smoldering fervor I the onlooker looks on tender sadness Caused by love not being able to find me, Of what was found once but what was lost Oh a bitter-sweet sensation this epiphany Love cannot find me now However I the onlooker; Still looks on

Found and Lost
The flowers are in bloom... and so are you So much so the sky will open up... just for you And angels will come rushing out... looking for you For you have something they own... yes it is true A smile so beautiful; painted with an angelic hue A smile lovely enough, to make me chase after you... But the angels will return empty-handed, will cry adieu! for no one can ever take that sweet, angelic you

Just for You
Its so funny To love something You used to hate So much Whiffs of smoke Pints of gold Now you drown Now you burn But now its not even sad. It all makes sense. For you to hide something you love so much, And to ****** those that you hate

A Sense of Clarity
Shadows rain on this lonely evening Netiher candles lit nor the street lights Can break through this grasp of darkness The leaves rustle through the wind Cursing its cruel fate Of hanging on in the darkness Even the sweeter fruits take no mercy And the fall and fall towards to the ground To be trampled by the men who see only darkness The branches on the trees however, Are inviting; are inciting Calling you up to their height To hang by a rope in the darkness And darkness tramples Darkness mocks Darkness dares You to get out Of its devilish grasp Its fiendish grip And the flickering candles Beg you to go to the motion No light can reach you: the candles say There is nothing for you: The mangled fruits say And the shadows give ts embrace It's time Let's go away from this Empty and lonely place
