You were asking me to lead
Someone at my level I match wits
And I doubt — it was peculiar
That yought suitor eminently decodes a liar
’Cause there is no amount of time to tell
What makes it desperately disparate?
***** hush-hush, lad has no regret
Such insult to the phantom you won’t get.

Just to feel the freedom — I must exist
When everyone's deeply in love
While I’m deeply indifferent
Perhaps, I abated my level
Through the braids of disenchantment
To the slave of obscurity
Finally... the lingering sparks flew away
And now you are asking me to leave.
Another typical bright summer Tuesday,
On the left side of the road, it was my dismay
As we both head north — to bricks you call home
And to bricks no matter, I termed dome
For how long I wish to un-recall
A talk would never bend the wall.

I am not the one who’s standing on thin ice
Moments my heart to explode, I felt the haze
Your palm was covering the west part of your face
Shadows that meant beneath your feet with ease,
Hiding from the sun that has been always in the east.

To whom were your empathy in disguise?
Be one of my achievements — all I asked for
Only to ghost the reflection of good rapport
I never knew you would belong to hundreds I once had;
The revelation I would never be prepared in olympiad
That’s how I conclude during months of my isolation,
One's age does not define one's sophistication.
Embracing the warmness of your kingdom
Where we engaged and entertain our boredom,
While no other man should’st compete to measure
Among out-worldly wood is just the golden treasure!

And we hath the night to dance with rhythm
Inescapable ’til pale, ’til this second baptism.
Write your name through the dimensions of my back
Fill it with scratches — I’ll be all bite no bark!

As I shove aside the heavenly mountains,
Sensing the butterflies all o’er your rib cage;
As I wreck the breadth of scenic canyons,
Demolishing the routes of your village;
As I sink to the bed of shallow lakes,
Hitting the reset button — curling your phalanges.

Simply cease once you learned each detail, every vein;
’Til your cherry red blood became zirconia porcelain.
Be the cat that will get my tongue
To this curious inamorato who yearns unsung.

Look at me proudly and masochistically!
Even the sheet acknowledges how cryptic
The wholeheartedly cries we reflect
From a passionate gentleman with no respect.
Sa mga mata ng makata,
iisang paraluman lamang ang itinatala
Na sa bawat linya, ika niya,
may kariktang natatangi’t mahiwaga
At sa bawat saknong tila nagsusumbong
ang dalisay na hango’t may pasalubong.

Marahil sa mga mata ng isang makata,
duyog ng mga sariling nagkaugnay ang naaaninag
Sa mga tala at sa kaniyang iniirog,
ay payapa sa pag-asang walang pahimakas
at kailanma’y sasamuing wala nang bukas.

Hanggang sa huling hinga ng makata,
iisang paraluman pa rin ang itatala
Ang tanging pamamaraan ng wakas
mga katagang hindi pambibilog,
linyang mag-iiwan ng mga rosas,
tinik sa mahigpit na pagbigkis
ng dalawang labing naghihinagpis.
Pluto, the color of grass used to be green
How does it feel to be obsessed with your queen?
Picking flowers while surrounded by ewe
It stank, and I knew it was you!
Order your horses to hold your chariot back
As she never wanted to be your jack

Proserpina, the woman in sculpted marble
How does it feel to be a ruler in his world?
It stinks, and suddenly it was Gian!
With his great hammer, behind it all, began
As we might thank him for telling our stories
The pious prodigy, full of creations he could not resist
A little seed of sparkle I planted
Never knew would grow like unwanted
Upon Nyx stare at starry-night sky
Full of glimmering hints he painted

These desires that I hold towards to tell
Must crush or turn to a forbidden fruit
Since sins and injustice are not parallel,
Settling will make people just fall for it

I am falling,
On this pile of not-so-sweet maples
Wishing I never met farmers ahead of me
Where only Death should be at

Seasons have passed, the leaves have not
Still the same house he built on this tree
With nothing to offer but its trunk
Pirouettes in the wind, roots wanting to flea
How can someone be perceived
If one neglects his own heart?
Mirror ***** don’t shine,
They reflect and since—
Thy insolence you built.

Thy insolence you built,
They reflect and since—
Mirror ball, don’t shine.
If one neglects his own heart,
How can he perceive someone?
