i have
so many
demons
in me
that i
continue to
live with
& tame
every
single
day

A smile, a stare of a beautiful stranger
Pulled you close without a hint of danger

You danced you laughed in the darkness of night
Like a dream of colors, oh what a lovely sight

A smile, a stare of a beautiful stranger
Something you won't forget, it stays forever

It was love for a night
You're sure you got blight

A kiss, a dance with a beautiful stranger
Took your heart and marked your blunders

Is it even possible to fall for a stranger?
You barely know, yet you cry a river.

A smile, a stare of a beautiful stranger
Cursed you, then you search for it ever

A kiss, a dance with a beautiful stranger
Do yourself a favor, and don't try to gamble

That stranger is not a lover
But a deceiver who can make you mad
mad as a hatter.

A moth drawing near towards the flame
The fire attracts her seamless wings
She goes, she flies, without a hint of shame

"Beautiful things must be known," she said
But beautiful things can leave you in dread

Still she comes close
Closer to that enticing, dancing flame

Flies behind
And back and forth

She moves her wings to fill enough gap
To feel the heat, and the warmth
Yet safe from that vicious sap

Nababagot, bagot sa buhay
Buhay na noon'y makulay

San naparoon

Mga ngiting tunay
Mga salitang nagtulay
Sa loob at sa iba

San naparoon

Ang malawak na ideya
Imahinasyon o nobela

Nariyan lang sila
Sa dulo ng daliri
Sa gilid ng labi

Hanapin mo
At iyong makikita

Nababagot, bagot sa buhay

Hindi na, parating na

May makikita ka
Na wala sa iba

Hindi na, parating na

Damdamin
Galak
Halakhak

Nariyan na
Sa loob, sa paanan
Sa iyong mga mata

A jolt
A thought
A shudder
You feel all alone
Only one in the world
No one is there
No person is there around you
For you
When you are being surrounded
With smiles
But there is no one
Is the loneliest feeling in the world.

I was hideously built
Terror, malice, lies were abundant as i grew
And then i died
I died for a million times
To live again
Now I am rebuilding my new self
With wings strong and hued
With aims clear, only good and true
And I thank the people
The circumstances
That led me to death
Just to let me live again
And bring me to a brighter
Promising world
That lets me shine
And fly free
