If I hadn't fallen in love
I would have not known
that stars could dance in the eyes
That the moon could whisk me away
That the sun could live in the heart
and warm it and fill it with light
That clouds could shower kisses
And rain could touch like a lover
That the scent of flowers
could linger through the night
That the winds could play love melodies
That sunrises could colour a blush
And sunsets stir romance
That dreams could glisten at dawn
like drops of dew

I would have not known the magic
that is love
If I hadn't fallen in love
With you

A group of black clouds
gathered,
they had come to be together -
for the blue sky, had sadly,
just passed away,

The Sun
switched its warm,
radiant, bright light off -
paying respect to the memory
of another lost,
perfect Summer's day.

Heaven's gates stood
with arms wide open,
Heaven
flooded the grounds
below
with heavy,
warm tears of rain,

Upon these warm tears stopping,
A delightful,
sensationally bright,
hope-filled, 
glowing rainbow
miraculously came forth -
A sign
that Summer's rain—Heaven's warm tears,
were not, at all, in vain.

Sabi nila, lahat ay nangyayari sa tamang panahon,
Ngunit hindi ko na maalala ang huling beses na sumang ayon ang tadhana sa akin
Minsan nag dududa na ako kung may tamang panahon pa nga ba
Ilang sakit pa ba ang kailangan tiisin bago matamasan iyon?

Nung nakilala kita, akala ko tama na, akala ko ayun na
Akala ko ang tamang panahon ay naririto na
Ngunit hindi parin pala
Sa puso mo'y may nagmamay-ari na pala

Wala akong ibang magawa kundi ang palayain ka
Hanggang ngayon hindi ko parin maintindihan
Kung bakit pinag tatagpo ang dalawang pusong pipigilan din naman
Ito na ata ang pinaka masakit sa lahat, ang pigilan ang nararamdaman

Ilang paalam pa ba?
Ilang pag papa-raya pa?
Ilang pag titiis pa upang magawa lamang ang tama?
Ilang luha pa ang kailangan pumatak sa aking mata?

Kailan kaya maranasan at maramdaman ang saya
Yung saya na nananatili hanggang sa pag gising mo kinabukasan
Hindi ko alam kung kelan ang huli
Huling beses na masasaktan ako bago ko maranasan maging masaya

How strange that a child of the spring
is akin to a prince of ice...
two people so different share the same sadness

There's a train station just down the road
if I could only put a foot
in front of
the other.

Time passes too quickly
allowing my body and it's will
to survive - holding me back against the bed.
I'm meant to be the pilot. Me.

My soul is now  only the means to an end,
and I'm too tired to object, heavy, hanging by strings.
If only I could break free for a moment...


There's a train station just down the road.

The tragedy of life
Isn't death
But what we let
Die inside of us
while we live

Autumn leaves
would do
for remembrance,
Perhaps,
more than words,
or a  plaintive air
Of a yellow guitar;
a rain,
a wine-dark wind  
spraying last summer's
fragrance.
Ah! Your absence!

Your white,
present, absence 
unshields
my metaphor!
