manipis na bagay
Wolff Aug 2018
Minsan ako'y naghahangad at nag nanais
ng mga bagay-bagay na bihira ngunit hindi labis
sa hating papel na takot sa kiskis ng lapis

At dahil sa takot at pangamba
ako at ang papel ay naging isa
sa takot na masaktan ng tadhana
at dahil sa mga salita'y naging dala

nagpaka layo-layo kasabay ng agos ng hangin
hindi alam na basa at gusot ang tatahakin
alikabok at buhangin
sabay sa buga ng hangin

Ako sana'y patawarin
bigyan pa ng kaunting pagpapahalaga
sa aking damdamin
kahit ano mang mangyari sa akin
mabasa man o pagpunit-punitin
ako
ay
papel
pa
rin.

tok tok tok!
Wolff Sep 2018
Tatlong katok lang ang layo ng katahimikan
"wala dito, kanina pa umalis mama ko"
utos sa anak na walong taong gulang
habang nagtatago sa palikuran
"sabihin mo sa mama mo, na nagbigay ako ng ulam"
"salamat po ninang!"
"walang anuman", bago siya lumisan.

tatlong katok lang ang layo ng katahimikan
"wala dito, kanina pa umalis mama ko"
utos sa anak na walong taong gulang
habang nagtatago sa palikuran
napakamot na lang ang naniningil ng utang
gigil na nagpaandar ng motor
sapagkat siya'y nagulangan

tatlong katok lang ang layo ng katahimikan
sa pagkatok, tanong ay "tao po?"
sagot ay "tao po"
biglaan ang pagka gulantang
"anak, dali! magtago ka doon sa palikuran"
alam na niya kung sino ang dumating
takot ang bumalot sa kapaligiran
namumugtong na mga mata
at nginig na mga kamay na parehas kumakaliwa
bakas ang kaba sa mukha

at tatlong katok lang ang layo ng katahimikan
ang pinto'y hindi binubuksan
nabasag ang katahimikan kasabay
ng pagbagsak ng sirang pintuan
nasurpresa sa kanyang mga bisita
nangingilid na ang luha
bigay todo ang pagmamakaawa
isa dalawa tatlo, hanggang anim
anim na nakaunipormeng magsasaka
hindi palay ang itinatanim, kundi bala

kasabay ng panlalamig ng katawan
ang ingay ay nilamon bigla ng katahimikan
at kasabay ng katahimikan
ang kanyang ina
ay
binawian
ng
buhay...

Kaya mo, Kaya ko
Wolff Apr 2017
nagsimula sa ikaw at ako....
na nauwi sa 'tayo'
ikaw ang mundo ko at ako ang buhay mo...
ngunit biglang nagbago...
ang 'tayo' ay naging magulo at malabo
nawala... naglaho...
ang 'tayo' ay naging 'kayo' at ang 'ako' ay pinalitan mo ng 'siya'...

sa halip na kalimutan ka ay ayun, naaalala ka...
ang ngiti **** nagpapaligaya sa akin...
mga salita **** aking nalalasahan at nakakain (mahal kita, mahal kita)...
ang iyong matang nangungusap sakin na ito'y patawanin...
ang paghaplos **** parang malamig na simoy ng hangin...
ang iyong tinig na nagpapasaya sa aking damdamin...

ang dating pagmamahal na nagsusumiksik at umaapaw
ngayon ay nasa ilalim na ng lupa...
kung kaya't wag mag alala
nilatagan ko iyon ng dahon, maging ligtas sa anumang panahon... sa darating na mga taon...

ginugunita ang ala-alang lipas na...
parang tubig sa batis na umaagos palayo sa aking mukha...
na hanggang doon na lang ang kinaya...
wala na akong magagawa...
kung kaya't salukin na lamang ito at ipanghihilamos
upang magising at matauhan na ito'y matagal nang wala...
nakabaon na sa lupa...
McDo's commercial is really something lol.

Is it? Again?
Wolff Sep 2016
Is it worth it?
to catch something falling
again
even if it means
to risk everything
not knowing
its desires
and will leave you on nothing?

Like you've been slain
you'll feel nothing
including pain
Co'z your heart shatter
like a glass full of water
it breaks while your tears falling
and you're trying
to collect everything,
still picking, ignoring
the bleeding
Co'z the numbness
knocks on your door
you told it to come in
as you're lying on the floor

Never love again it said
i'll replace your heart with mine
and you'll forget all in no time
so watch your step as you climb
that heart is heavy and i'm sure
you will not commit that crime
again.

Struggling
Wolff Sep 2019
im having trouble
with memory comprehension
this mind is full of apprehension
they always steal my attention
it seems they're going on a vacation
seperating in all my relations
left me lonely with fog
found nothing but frustrations

i no longer use medicine to bargain
a ruse i used to believe was now in vain
it felt like riding a train
going to your destination and paused when it rains

books, pens, and questions got me overwhelmed
answers and papers with no lead, nor helm
all i want is to reach my personal gratification
but my head is in state of sublimation
and i guess it's a broken contemplation

Candy

Sweet lies
it seems you're satisfied
and it left me terrified
Your life's a misguide
by the deceits you've bite
your tooth aches
and it putrefies
Oh sweet lies
are you satisfied?
Now I learn
to drink water
after eating you
to just listen
but not considering you
to be honest
but not like you.
i'm new here, i didnt know if my grammar was right or nahh

ressurection
Wolff May 2017
as my heart buried down deep of forgotten soil
and fragile leaves stretch itself to cover like foil
hidden in the forest stirred turmoil
at the feet of mountain of mysteries coil

the merciful heaven sent me you to end my despair
from this cruel earth chained breathless from air
guided by graceful light, you found me lying souless and bare

you showered me love, lots of love
that gave me enough strength to revive
a healing salve that is truly bribe
that sets free my petrified heart.
This is what you did to me.
Wolff Sep 2016
I hear the vibration of fear
I see the sound of it
It's coming near
I smell your fright
And taste your might
I'm here to shed you some light
Come out
Stand up
And fight
For what you think is right
I believe in you
So hold on really really tight
Please live
Surpass your problem in life
I'm here
Day
And night
I can make it. My 'right' path is ahead of me. I know i can do it.

Stone that beats
Wolff Sep 2016
I want to be free
But it seems there's a wall in my heart
I tried to break it down
And discovered
It was my own wall
Who molded my heart
Into stone

best friend
Wolff Aug 2016
The venom you spit, I cannot bear
with each curses, makes it unclear
I know you're mad, so please burst it out
I'll ask you again, tell me what's it all about
calm yourself, and make it nice
for me, I can understand, what your heart truly desires

Manhid
Wolff Aug 2018
inosente ang kanyang puso
sa larangan ng pag-ibig
magmahal lang ang kayang gawin
kahit paulit ulit nang tinatabig
sinabuyan ng mainit na tubig
kahit wala na siyang nakakabig

ang utak niya ay napakatalim
sa pag-unawa
hindi malalim
karanasa'y madilim
dahil noong maliit
walang lilim

ang dalawa'y pagtatagpuin
ng tadhanang matampuhin
ang isa'y mahirap bigkasin
ang isa ay nakaka-aning
sa isang lalagyan
sila'y hiwalay na pagsasamahin

— The End —
