Words cannot express
How happy I am;
Seeing my dreams
Turning into reality;
With each little steps I take,
I am achieving my goals;
Every effort and time spent -
None of them ever wasted;
Everything that happened
Lead me to where I want to be,
To where I am right now.
And I know,
I still a have long journey ahead of me,
Opportunities laid before me,
Successes awaiting to be attained,
Triumphs waiting to be celebrated,
Victories awaiting to be won.

The rain is pouring down
As if the clouds are crying;
Making the weather cooler
Sending shivers down my spine;
Trees go swaying and dancing with the wind;
Cats go hiding
So afraid of getting wet;
The sun, though shining,
Over the clouds is hiding;
I hear the sweet chirping of birds
Hiding in a big branch of a tree;
The flowers bloom
And twirls with the wind.
All these I noticed,
As I glanced out of my window
During a cold rainy day.

Beggars in the pavement asking for alms;
Vagabonds continuously wandering;
Street children with nothing to eat just lick their palms;
These states of living are so shattering.

Avaricious keep on acquiring riches
Not caring how others are feeling;
Such a bunch of leeches
Being parasitic, doing nothing but stealing.

With head bowed down, we lament
'Coz we are still trapped by our past
Did not dare to feel any enjoyment
Go through each day so fast.

This world we are living
Full of dilemmas and sorrows
But all we do is self-pitying
Instead of doing things for better tomorrows.

Lived with an intention to avenge
Treated this whole life as if it is a big challenge.

The smile on my face never fade
Though deep inside I'm hurt badly;
To understand everybody, I think, is the reason why I'm made
I care for them sincerely;
Whenever someone could no longer handle a thing,
I'll be there as their shock absorber;
They can pour out on me anything
And I can assure I'll be a good secret keeper;
I always lend my ears to anyone
Be a friend to depend on;
Be with them to have fun
Not worrrying on whatever we have done;
If they are feeling blue
I'll be there to cheer 'em up;
If sadness spreads easily like a flu
I'll create an antidote to make it stop.
I realized, to others I care a lot
Not expecting for anything in return from them;
Maybe, this heart that I got
Is just too kind and too fragile as a piece of thin gem.
It's always my pleasure to inspire someone
And give some pieces of advice;
My shoulder are small but it's meant to be leaned on by anyone
Cry there and from their loneliness they'll rise.
It makes me happy when I'm spreading love,
And it gives me strength when I'm loved sincerely;
But sometimes, it is also love
That makes me too vulnerable and the reason why I'm hurt deeply.
Now I'm thinking,
Is love my shining armor
Or is it my kryptonite?

Whatever you will do,
Forever be true,
Always be YOU!

Perfect way
To celebrate
Birthdays
Is to spend it
With the ones
You love most.

'Hey, Beautiful!'
That is how boys get attention;
Saying sweet cherry-topped words
Sounds romantic and endearing;
Words of praises
For those pretty faces;
But they don't plan to stick till the end
To them, love is just a game -
The first to fall loses;
When the game is over,
A new playmate is what they'll look for.

Life is tough
You can be crushed in just a puff
That is why I learned how to be stong enough.
                        
People tried to bring me down
They laughed at me like I'm a clown
But I showed them how I could still win the crown.

They showed me darkness so I could lose my hope
Distracted me so I will not be able to cope
But I fought to see the light instead of sitting down to mope.

Insults and curses are what they gave me
But I turned those into motivations to see
A better future that awaits me.

Had almost died due to many illnesses and felt like everyday I'm getting weaker
Doctors told me I could not any longer
But I survived coz I am a fighter.

Had been through hardships and pain
But I did not just cry in vain
It is courage and strength that I managed to gain.

Instead of seeing things negatively,
I have dealt it and countinuously dealing with it positively
That is why I can live happily.

I believe that God is always there for me
Even from my deepest and darkest misery
He never fails to help and save me

Each of us is painter
Given a canvas called life;
Holding our brushes
Making strokes and lines of our own;
Choosing colors that define us -
Creating a unique masterpiece.

When we feel sorrow,        
When we've gone through unbearable pains,
When we're already on the verge of giving up,
When our hope was lost,
Always try to remember
The very reason why we struggled;
Our purpose and our dreams;
That would give us the strength
We need to carry on and still pursue.
These challenges and hardships will soon pass;
We must not see them as hindrances  
But rather tools to make us stronger
And to bring the best out of us.

Once upon a time,
There was me and you,
We were each other’s half –
A perfect match.

As I lay my head on your shoulder,
You wrap me in your arms;
Our hands entwined
Sharing sweet laughters.

All those moments we spent together
We decided to make it last;
My hope of our forever
Will be up high til' we turn to dust.

When you decided to love me so,
My heart was ever glad;
You and me just like that…
Inlove... Unified.

Lovely cherry blossom tree,
I want to see you
Blooming with pink perfection;
Give me happiness
No other could bring.

Beating,
Drumming,
Rolling,
Jumping,
Spinning,
Dancing.
That is how my heart behaves
When I am so close to you.

When in the midst of confusion,
Should you listen to what your mind thinks,                    
Or follow what your heart feels?

I said "Leave me alone"
But I really want you to stay by my side
Wanting to feel you more.

I said "I'm fine"
Though I'm really not
While pretending I'm really just fine.

I said "I don't love you"
But when you look into my heart,
You'll see your name written all over it.

I said "I moved on"
Though I'm still under the shadows of my past
Not letting me move forward.

I said "I surely can do it"
But there are a lot of doubts and fear inside me
Putting my hopes down.

I said "I'm brave and strong"
Though I have never been that tough enough
Always being afraid of going beyond my comfort zone.

I said "I'm like an open book"
But the truth is I have never let anyone see the whole real me
Still hiding under my shell like a frightened turtle.

Sometimes, what I said is not what I really mean
Making others confused of my real thoughts and feelings.

In the stillness of the night
We see the stars shining bright,
Gentle winds blowing
Making the flowers go dancing.

Up in the hill we run
Seeking nothing but fun,
Seeing through the moonlight
Together, lets be blithe.

Doing something you know is stupid
Makes you wanna let someone whack you in the face
Hoping that it would somehow shake your brain
For you to think right again.

But no matter how hard you shook your head,
Still your mind is troubled;
Realizing in the end
That you've been confused by your feelings.

When will I learn?
I am always deceived;
How would I be able to determine what is true?
Why am I always the one losing?

Your words, I hold on dearly
Believing that what you feel for me is genuine
I thought your love for me was for real
But in the end I realized I hold on for nothing.

If I could just turn back time,
I would refrain myself from falling for you
To save my mind from going crazy,
To save my heart from this unbearable pain.

◘○◘○◘

Hindi na nadala, hindi na natuto
Lagi na lang akong naloloko
Paano ba malalaman kung alin ang totoo
Lagi na lang ako ang talo.

Nanghawak akong mabuti sa iyong mga salita
Pag-ibig na tunay, yan ang aking inakala
Sa iyo, ako'y umasa,
Umasa lamang pala ako sa wala.

Sana hindi na lamang nagmahal
Kung alam kong hindi rin pala magtatagal,
Puso sana'y hindi ngayon nasasaktan ng ganito
*Isip sana'y hindi tuliro.

In this world run by lies
Learn to be wise;
Some may look nice
But they may be otherwise.
Sounds innocent when they speak
But it may just be all part of the trick;
Dare not to believe
Coz their inner motive is to deceive.

When in the midst of decision making
For me, is a season of lamenting
'Coz it always appears confusing
Not sure where my thoughts are heading.

Walking,
Any path I am taking;
Where to go?
I still do not know.

Thinking,
Random things coming out  
Til my head starts spinning
Making me wanna shout.

Direction,
I think is what I need
And do things with caution
To have a better and happier life indeed.

If today is my dying day
I wanna make it a grand one.

Though my time wasn't a long one
"Thank you for having this life" is what I'll still say.

I love you
This, my heart assures.
But I must not
This, my mind dictates.
I know,
You love me too.
But no matter how much love we have for each other,
We cannot stay like this forever.
I love you,
But I must cease loving you.
No matter how unbearable the pain I will suffer,
I have to.
Sorry would be last word you'll hear from me,
I am setting you now free.
Sorry, my love,
You may see this decision of mine as a sign of my cowardice
Or something that is unwise,
But I have do it now,
Break your - our hearts now
Than later,
Because I might no longer bear the pain of losing you
When my heart could no longer beat without you.
Hope you'll still be happy
Even without me.
Farewell, my love,
Farewell!

Our hands entwined
Our hearts intertwined,
Fated to be together
To share a life called forever.

This is what I have always dreamed of -
To fall in love
With someone who will be with me
For eternity.

If you feel scared
Because of the risks involved,
Forget them all
And take the fall.
If it is meant to be,
You will then see
It will be worth it all.

She will travel million miles
No distance would seem so far away
For the sake of someone she loves.

She will not give up
Be ready to fight
For the sake of someone she loves.

She will be tough
Though she is not that strong enough
For the sake of someone she loves.

She will not be afraid
Gather all courage she can have
For the sake of someone she loves.

She will go through hell
And get back from it
For the sake of someone she loves.

She will not just be a shoulder to cry on
But will also extend a helping hand
For the sake of someone she loves.

She will bravely face anything
Not even death would scare her
If it is for the sake of someone she loves.

She will do anything
Nothing is impossible
For the sake of someone she loves.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Today is your special day
Rejoice and don't feel blue.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Another year to live
A start of something new.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
Bountiful blessings -
God's gift to you.

Roses are red,
Violets are blue,
May your heart be filled with happiness
And know that many loves and cares for you!
