In this wicked world, she sojourn
Facing every hardships and pains
Continuously, she endures
Hoping that one day all those will soon pass.

People tried to pull her down
But she remained still and tough
Life goes on no matter what,
She will be strong happen what may.

This world may be cruel
But she will not give up;
With a courageous and strong heart,
She will fight until the very end.

~×~×~

Ang mundo'y pawang puno ng hinagpis
Mga suliranin, laging nararanasan
Walang nagawa kundi ang magtiis
Nananalig na lahat ay kayang malampasan.

Hinahamak man ng iba
Hinding hindi siya magpapadala
Tuloy ang daloy ng buhay
Magpapakatatag siyang tunay.

Madilim at magulo man ang mundo
Hindi siya susuko
Lalaban ng buong puso
Magpapatuloy hanggang dulo.
My second poem written in Tagalog with an English translation :)

Everybody wants a happy ending
But not all end up being happy
Some live while their heart is breaking
Others end up in misery.
Fairytales only exist in one's imagination
Full of fantasies of happiness
Providing a temporary escape
But still live in a wretched reality.

Like losing one's true love,
Like missing one's last chance,
Nothing left to hope for,
Every dream burnt down to ashes.
That is how cruel this world is -
Will let you hope for something
But in the end,
Will leave you hanging.
A sad poem to express out my sadness from the book which I have recently read.

No matter how many obstacles would come your way
No matter how much sufferings you have to endure
No matter how painful every situation gets
No matter what,
Come what may,
Do not give up
Coz it is your life which is at stake.
When life gets hard,
Think of the reasons why you hold on,
Think of the reasons why you fought,
Think of the reasons why you even started,
Then maybe,
You would have more strength
To conquer any hardships
That would try to hinder you
From achieving your goals.

Having thoughts in my head
Seems to have an endless flow
Drowning me 'til I can't breathe
'Coz I can't contain everything.

I thought those words
Forever will keep on coming
But now, here I am,
Thinking, but left with nothing.

Looking inside my head right now
Is like staring in a dark hallow
Without a single speck of light
To illuminate the place and make it bright.

Maybe now I've stopped from bleeding
No more words coming out
No more creative thoughts
Left with non sense things.
I don't know if this poem makes sense at all. This idea just popped out of my head. Haha. Anyway, thanks for reading. :)

As I opened my eyes
I watched a bird as it flies
Landing from one tree to another
Chirping a melody as it wanders.

I turned and looked to my right
And saw the sun rising so bright,
I looked to the other side
And saw a river so wide.

Cold wind continuously blowing
Making the flowers go dancing,
Moistening the grass on the ground
While fogs are forming all around.

I stood up and started walking
Still doesn't know where I'm heading,
I looked up to see the sky so blue,
Gosh, this place is too good to be true!

I danced my way up to a hill
And there I stood still,
Awestruck that a place could be this beautiful,
Making me feel more blissful.

I ran with excitement and tumbled in the meadow
Lay there, waiting for the wind to blow,
Took a deep breath and closed my eyes,
And whispered, “This is my paradise.”

When I think of Mr. Dream Guy,
I easily find the right words
To describe how happy he makes me feel
And how wonderful are my days when with him.

When I think of Mr. Lover,

I can't find the perfect words
'Coz it seems that no word could express how happy he made me feel.

I have a very special treasure
A precious wealth for sure
Something I have since I was born
It’s the love of God I have adored.

He helps me in my tasks,
Even though I do not ask,
He gives me knowledge and skills,
In return, I do obey His will.

But I know that it’s not just enough,
To surpass God’s unconditional love
Because nothing can still be compared
To all the things to me He shared.

From the beginning till forever,
His love I will always remember,
It is my one precious wealth
In my blessed life on Earth.

Every girl like me dreamed to have a prince charming,
Who will treat me as his princess.

I want my prince charming to be -
Handsome,
With really cute smile;
And when I'm walking with him in the mall
Other girls couldn't stop staring at us,
Wishing they have a prince like mine.

I want someone who sings well,
He'll write songs for me
And keeps on serenading me,
Making my me blush all the time.

I'm quite a tall girl,
So he must be at least 4 inches taller than me.
So that even though I'm on my stilettos,
He would still stand tall.

But as I grew older,
I realized that my childish imagination of my prince charming has changed;
Just a decent-looking guy is enough,
I no longer care if he sings well;
I'm no longer too particular of his physical appearance
'Coz I realized
That what's inside his heart is what matters most.

Now, what I want is a sweet guy,
Who will turn ordinary days to special ones,
Keep on surprising me
Making me always happy.

I want to have someone who -
Will genuinely love me;
Is trustworthy;
Will get my family's approval and respect them;
Is a God-loving one;
Will truly care for me;
Is dependable;
Will be true to me;
Will accept me for who I am really;
Will always be there for me.

Whoever he will be,
I will love him for eternity.

I thought I was not that strong
Thinking I'm a weakling
But I've proved it wrong.

Been belittled for so long
To them, I'm just nothing
I thought I was not that strong.

To this world I don't belong
This is what they're saying
But I've proved it wrong.

My heart pounding like a gong
Scared, seems like shivering
I thought I was not that strong.

Everything I do is wrong
This is what they're thinking
But I've proved it wrong.

They've pulled me down for so long
But I've struggled, fighting
I thought I was not that strong
But I've proved it wrong.

I'm ready to fall

But will you be there to catch me
Or will I just hit the ground
And shatter into pieces as I fall?

I'm ready to fly

But will you fly with me
And soar up high in the sky
Or you'll just let me fly away?

I'm ready to give us a try

But will you still let me,
See if we are meant to be
Or have you already been tired of waiting for me?

I'm ready to live

But will it be happiness that you'll bring
And let me feel loved
Or will you let me live while dying from a broken heart?

I'm ready to learn

But what will you teach me?
Will it be how to love with all my heart
Or how to move on and forget the love of my life?

I'm ready to lose it all*

But would you be there to complete me again
And let me feel like I haven't lost at all
Or will you be the one that I will lose?
The ones in bold are lyrics from the song "Ready to Fall"

One dull grey day had just passed
Leaving me feel like an outcast
Then thinking of what had gone wrong
For me not to feel strong.

As I think deeper
The thoughts are getting weirder and creepier
Making me feel like lost in a crowd
Making me shout out loud.

When I am already calmed down
I shook my head and frown
Realizing I have more important things to do
That to keep on feeling so blue.

So I stood up with my head held high  
And said, "I am now ready to fly"-
Fly away from my sorrows
And look up for better tomorrows.

*My secretive heart.
(10-word)
blythe Feb 2013
I knew what I want from the start
The feeling of having it gets me so excited;
But then, days passed by
Just took everything for granted,
Made slight efforts to achieve it
But still, those are not enough
Been such a happy go lucky.
I know I can still do a lot more than that
But, yeah, I'm too stubborn to make more efforts
Thinking that all those little things I did
Would suffice everything.
Now, I feel blue,
Having a lot of regrets,
Feeling more depressed.
Thinking the "what ifs" -
If I've done this and that;
If I've struggled harder;
If I've been diligent;
Would I get better results?
Would I get what I wanted?
Would I be happy now?
How would I know?
I could no longer go back in time.
I know I should do better this time
To make up for the mess I've done,
But these regrets continuously linger in my head
And I can't shake it off right away.
Yeah. I really feel sad tonight. :|

Anyways, thanks for reading this, though I wasn't able to rewrite this poem - no rhymes, no good flow. I just wanna let this out.

Wash me with your love
Let it bubble with passion
Mend my broken heart
Help me make a new start.

Pour your warm gentle words
Let them heal my wounded soul
Cleanse me inside out
See what is still left of me.

Pat me dry with your embrace
Wrap your arms all around me;
Hold my heart gently,
Stop it from bleeding;
Kiss away my tears,
Stop my eyes from crying.

Wash away my pains from the past,
Fill in all the hollowed parts of me,
With your love,
Let me be renewed.

A roller coaster ride-
That is life.

Sometimes, you're up*                                    
                                                 Sometimes, you're down.

At some points, it is slow
You'd feel bored
At some points, it fast
You'd feel like being turned upside down.

Let not fear overcome you
Face it with courage
And most of all,
Enjoy the ride!

Make your ride
*Worth the while.

When I'm home alone
And have no one to talk over the phone,
I'll stay in my room and sit on my bed
Get a piece of paper and a pen
Write about something that lingers in my head
Being more imaginative as I can.

Thoughts come and go
Without even having a good flow;
There are times ideas are overflowing
But most times, I just end up scribbling.

Sometimes it's hard to find the right words
It's like playing a guitar and hitting the wrong chords;
These phrases may sound funny
Having groups of words that look scrappy
But, hey, this is making me happy
Making the time I spent writing worthy
'Coz, at least, I'm having a means
Of expressing out my feelings.

Going through each day
Looking happy and worry-free
'I am fine', I always say
But there is something they cannot see
Something hidden deep inside
So that no one could know
The scar I used to hide
My woebegone soul it would show
Still learning how to mend my heart
Looking at the shattered pieces of it
Seeing what's still left after it had been torn apart
Picking up each fragment bit by bit.

A luminous forest, a weeping evergreen, a tall waterfall that the breeze bounds o'er, a spring of dreams that doubles back and cycles - sky in endlessly they do: the wavelet course of the orbs or a calm stream, tearful eyes overflowing with heraldic thoughts thru the night, a singular occupancy in a surge or flood, crest followed by crest ' till they disguise all, a reign of emerald hue that has no decay, like the flapping wings in the unfolding sky. A gigantic mountain standing tall and strong, not showing how lonely it is to be alone. A calming sound of the river flowing, swiftly the current goes like the days passing by quickly along with each memory. A passage thru the valleys of our future days, and the sunless elegance of such sorrow takes this wealthiest of natures and turns it to industry, and the eventual joys within loving arms that seek out company and some necessary duty in vain at this time, for the day time moments are chipped away by other moments, for all this, I finally admit that I need your happiness to bring me back from this wasting away, because I desire the multiform pleasures that you could bring to me -and I to you.

In my heart
I kept you
I hold you dearly -
Closely;
The thought of losing you
Makes my heart ache -
Painfully.
Those days I spent
Without you,
I feel like dying
Of loneliness.
But now,
I have set you free -
Free from me,
May you be happier
With your new life,
With the new people in your life.
I know,
She will take care of you,
Love you
More that I could offer you now.
I might not have much time
To spend with you now;
You might just be lonely alone
And that is the last thing that I want to happen;
I only want you
To be loved
And feel loved
Forever.
I may be far away from you now
But in my heart,
You will always be here.
Hey, there! Thanks for reading :)
Another poem I have written for inanimate things - the toys I have donated to a little girl. I love my toys so much but I am grown up now. I will not be able to play with them again so I better give it to someone who will take care and love them - who will have time to play with them :)

Oh my love, please sing for me.
Let me hear thy gentle voice;
Let my heart beat with joy.
I don't ask you to write a new song for me,
Just sing any song you'll first think of-
The song that would remind me of you.

Oh my love, please sing with your heart.
Let me feel thy passion;
Let me feel thy love.
Come near me and sing gently,
Through the lyrics of the song
Let me know your true feelings for me.

Oh my love,
Serenade my heart-
Please sing for me.

Every night as I go to my bed
I'm somehow feeling a bit excited
For I'll be having a rest from a tiring day
In a soft cushion my back will lay
Be relaxed by the warmth of my blanket
Feel the tiredness as my eyes sink deeper in its socket
Plug in my earphones
To play random songs and enjoy its tones
Pick my fave stuffed toy and hug it
Feel better bit by bit
Shut my eyes and fall asleep
Live my fantasies that in my dreams I keep.
Just a short poem before I go to sleep :)

One dull grey day had just passed
Leaving me feel like an outcast
Then thinking of what had gone wrong
For me not to feel strong.

With one eyebrow raised
One hand cupping the face
And the other scratching my head
While my back straightened on my bed.

As I think deeper and deeper
The thoughts are getting weirder and creepier
Making me feel like lost in a big crowd
Making me shout out loud.

When I already calmed down
I shook my head and frowned
Realizing I have more important things to do
Than just to keep on feeling so blue.

I want an escape from my reality
And live in my fantasy
But then I ended up drowning in miseries
'Coz I was overcome by my worries.

So I stood up with head held high
And said, "I am now ready fly" -
Fly away from sorrows
And look up for better tomorrows.

Oh,' be young or old, courageous or wise,
Whatever you do, whoever you are,
Beware of those souls whose words are the guise
Hiding a past marked with an ugly scar.

Their face may be benign hiding malus
With an altruistic front for a show;
Fragrance of a rose hides a soul callus
Envious heart wanting to take your glow.

Yet, your love and honesty guides your fate
No matter what others would say and do,
Love's the beacon to steer away from hate
Enjoy life and show the world the real you.

When deceptive people spin their charmed lies
*Let not their words fool you, learn to be wise.

And the spring in nature
Playing a match
That let me have a catch
Of a bit of happiness
In all my loneliness

This weather makes me
Light as a feather
Dreaming of us together

Dreaming of us together
In a fairyland

Where a vast meadow
Filled with flowers
Dancing as the wind blows

Dancing as the wind blows
Taking away my woes
Sun rays kissing our skin
Let the light shine upon us

To take away my loneliness.

I love stuffed toys
I can say anything to it
Without even reacting;
When I'm happy
I can laugh with it,
When I'm lonely,
Stressed or depressed maybe
I can cry as hard as I can to it
Without having a fear
That it might worry about me;
When I need a hug
It can always give me one;
I can bring it anywhere I want
Without even complaining;
I can hug it
I can kiss it
And I can even punch it
To help me release
What I'm hiding inside;
It's like my best friend forever
And I'll part from it.. never.

No longer need the warmth of those thick sweaters
'Coz now the sun is out shining so bright enticing us to unwind
Feeling its warm kiss on my skin while its rays reflect like glitters.

Chillin' out under the sun, not worrying to have some skin discoloration,
Wearing colorful swimwear that get a lot of attention.

A face as white as snow with cheeks blushing
Lips painted in red pouting
Hair so soft and silky
Arranged so neatly
Hanging around the neck is a diamond necklace
Wearing a glamorous gown accented with a ****** red lace
Illuminating the skin
Making it look whiter and thin
Walking graciously
With a pair of Cinderella shoes so pretty.
This is what most girls would want to look like -
A princess;
Obsessed of the physical beauty.

Physically, one can easily possess beauty
With the help of modern technology;
Lips can be as red as an apple,
Face can be as perfect as it can be;
But a heart as pure as an innocent child's
And as good as an angel's
Cannot be made by the use of those cosmetics
Nor be fixed by any advanced technologies;
Inside appearance
Cannot be made beauteous
Even by any expensive make up.

If you really dreamed to be a princess,
Be one who possesses the real beauty -
The one that never fades -
Not the one seen just from the outside;
It is through the goodness of your heart that you'll see
*You claim the genuine beauty.

We were once strangers
Merely passing by each other
Not noticing one another
Each presence does not seem to matter.

Now every second matter
Where you are and where you've been
My heart echoed to your beating heart
Our souls intertwined fate from within.

It happened fast
But I want to make our love last;
You made me believe in forever
You melt the ice that once froze my heart.

No more lying stagnant with remorse
You brought me back to life
Now I'm stronger than before
With you by my side
Nothing can go ever go wrong.

My days of yore may be clouded with sadness
But now you filled it with happiness
I wanna spend the rest of my life with you.

Leaves aging gray covered with dust,
Iron losing its will to cope up with rust,
Flowers withered losing their lust,
And the hope pulverized by the broken trust.

Days swiftly passing by like a river flowing
To those memories from the days of yore they are holding,
With mournful souls they are living
Each passing day feels like dying.

Not much do they have, still surviving the wave,
Crawling their paths, on which the traces will engrave,
Swallowing the curse and exhibiting the traits of a brave,
Succumbed to temptation, still prolonging their grave.

Holding on to what is still left of them after being broken
With bruises all over - purple and swollen,
Hearing those painful words that remained unspoken
Their hearts lost, stolen.

As love never fades, but grows each season,
People do change, for love is the reason,
It reigns in any region,
*A salvation emerging, shining like a beacon.
Our second collab! I enjoy writing with him. :) It seems like we belong to each others poetry ;)

If you feel like you're broken -
And that there is no way to fix yourself again;
If you think that there's a battle between you and the whole world -
And conclude in your mind that there is no chance for you to win 'coz that's what you're told;  
If you feel like as if you're trapped in a cage -
And it is impossible to have an escape...

Think again!                                    
                                                      
Change your the way you think and feel, my friend!
You'll see, things will be better in the end!
No matter how broken you were in the past
You can still build yourself up in the present and be better in the future at last!
Be optimistic! :)

I thought this feeling was long gone
Have been long buried in the past
Have been totally forgotten,
And wounds from being hurt was healed.
But then, one day we met again,
Just seeing his smile makes my knees weak
As if I'll fall in the ground in an instant;
When he walked towards me
Standing so close to him
My heart is pounding hard
As if jumping of joy for being near with him again;
Then he opened his arms
Wrapped it around me
Pulled me closer to him
'
Til I felt my body trembled
Feeling such a bliss,
Feeling his heart beating,
Feeling the warmth of his hug.
I surely missed him -
Missed talking with him,
Missed holding his arm,
Missed his sweet smile,
Missed his soothing voice,
Missed his gentle caress,
Missed his arms lightly placed on my shoulders or on my hips,
I missed him totally.
In less than an hour we spent together,
I felt so much happiness
Every second with him was so precious
It's his presence and love that my heart is always yearning for.
It's just so sad,
Really sad for me
And it's breaking my heart
Knowing that we can't be like that forever;
Knowing that he'll forever be just my best friend,
And we can't be more than that.
My mind tells me to forget this feeling,
But my heart doesn't want to,
'Coz the truth is -
It can't.
I don't care if this is hurting me,
'Coz just being with him gives me much happiness -
So much happiness only him could make me feel.
