It's funny how you're my sun,
Warming my soul on the coldest of days
When the piercing stilettos of winter
Penetrate my body.
Yet on other days you burn my skin
Like a million untamed sparks
Lunging at the hand of the man
Who feeds the flames
Because he doesn't want to see them die.
"Your hands can heal
Your hands can bruise"

"Poison and Wine" - The Civil Wars
Maybe I'm in love with you
Or maybe I'm just confused
But figuring it out would be dangerous
For I've got so much to lose

I'd rip my heart from my chest for you
But you would only bury it
My love's a load I have to lug
But I can hardly carry it

I'd fall apart if you touched me
I'll fall apart if you don't
It's time that I got over this
But I know I can't and won't

Maybe I'm in love with you
But you don't love me back
Falling head over heels for you
Is one long anxiety attack
You said 'I love you'
And I said it too

You said you'd never leave
You'll always help me breathe

You said I made you happy
Even though that seems a bit sappy

But you see:

I know that love is not real

I know that forever never lasts

And I know that happiness is a lie


And oh god,
*It's gonna hurt when you're gone
This is about my boyfriend. I'm not sure where I was going with this but yeah
Behold my ****** beating heart
deranged from the day we became apart
It longs for your twinkling eyes
mirroring your vulnerable soul, I heave heavy sighs

In a dim-lit chamber
through the stairs, I clamber
I clasp my chest
melancholy runs over me the best
witnessing the past along the corridors
my eyes seek for the one my heart adores

Remembering the constellations upon your eyes
I whisper to myself, wonderful lies
Beaming with tears, I fondly held your portrait
pondering upon the thought that i can never be your mate
a little something i made for English class which was inspired by Petrarch's way of writing his poetry. I dont know if I actually captured his style but this is the best that I could do so far.
Falling for someone you don't entirely know,
You are tirelessly entering an endeavor you are to lose,
You give your entire being to an entirely different entity,
Who entices you with flashes of brilliance and mistery.
You effortlessly exert effort for a hopeless cause.
You are endlessly waiting for an eternity that will not come,
You picked a battle you have lost long before you could have won.
To fall in love with someone you barely know, don't do it, just please, don't.

Pagmulat palang ng iyong mga mata,
Pangalan niya agad ang iyong nakikita,
May mensahe sayo'y nagpapakilig,
Napapangiti na parang iyo na ang buong daigdig,

Ngunit alam kong napawi ang iyong mga ngiti,
Nawala ang kilig na kanina lang abot hanggang langit,
Dahil naalala **** hindi pwede, bawal, at delikado,
Kahit sinasabi ng puso mo siya'y mahal mo at ito'y sigurado.


Natatakot kang masaktan, umiyak, at higit sa lahat maging masaya,
Bakit mas nakakatakot ang huli? Dahil pag nawala siya hindi mo alam kung iyo pang makakakaya.
Alam mo sa sarili mo na siya ang iyong mahal,
Kaso natatakot ka lang ulit sumugal.

Pero ipinapangako ko sa buong mundo at sayo,
Gagawin ko ang lahat mawala lang ang takot mo,

**Handa akong sumugal sa pag-ibig para iyong malaman,
Na ang pag-ibig kong ito ay pang matagalan.
Ikaw at ikaw lang pipiliin,
Gagawin ang lahat huwag ka lang mawala sakin.
Sana iyong maisip
Ang aking nararamdaman
Hindi maipagkakaila
Ang nararamdaman ko ay tunay

Kung para sayo wala lang ito
Para saakin ito ay isang pangarap
Pangarap na hindi kailanman matutupad
Pangarap na tila isang impossibleng pagkakataon

Isang pagkakamali ang mahulog sayo
Ako man ay umaasa pa rin
Ngunit iba ang iyong gusto
Alam kong hindi ako at hinding hindi magiging ako

Kakaiba ang turing mo saakin
May konting aliw at kilig
Pero hindi lahat ay totoo
Kasinungalingan ika nga

Pagpasensyahan mo na
Ikaw ang aking natipuhan
Hindi ko ito sinasadya
Wala ito sa plano

Imposible, malabo, walang tiyansa, ano pa? Anong salita pa ang mag lalarawan ng "tayong dalawa".

Parang pag kidlat at pag kulog habang tirik na tirik ang araw,
Parang pag kakaroon ng trentay dos na bilang sa kalendaryo,
Ang pag tubo ng rosas sa malamig na semento
At pag kakaron ng dagat sa isang malawak na disyerto.

Alam kong wala, walang pag asa.
Hindi maari.

Pero tulad ng pag tatagpo ng araw at buwan isang beses sa mahabang panahon.
May pinanghahawakan ako,
Isang araw, Balang araw
Pag tatagpuin tayo ng tadhana
Sa di inaasahang lugar at panahon.
Tibok nalang ng ating mga puso
ang mag didikta na tayo talaga,
ang naka laan para sa isat isa.
