kaakit-akit ang katahimikan ng gabi
habang tinitingnan kita, hindi gumagalaw
ako'y nanginginig sa ibinalik **** titig
yinakap mo ako sa liwanag mo
pero kataka-takang hindi man lang kita
nahawakan
sana pwede kitang mahaplos kahit sandali
lang
mahulog ka sa aking mga braso
pero nakakalungkot
ang katotohanan ay hindi magpapalaya sa
akin
nandyan ka lang
parang hari nakatanaw sa kanyang mga
alipin
parang pinta na nakasabit sa dingding
para sa mata lamang
sana balang araw mahulog ka
para masalo kita
oh, aking mahal na bituin

English Translation:
"The Tale of the Star and The Rock(1)"

the stillness of the night seem so enchanting
as i stare at you, unmoving
i quiver slightly
you embrace me with your light
i wish i could touch you
and fall into my arms
but sadly, the truth will not set me free
you are just there
like a king in his throne
looking at his bowing servant
like a painting hanging on the wall
for eyes only
im hoping that someday
you will fall so i could catch you in my arms
oh, my so lovely star

Paulit-ulit na nagtatanong,
Palaging may binubulong,
Hanggang kailan ikukulong,
Huling sigaw ay tulong.

Puso’t isip ko’y nasasaktan,
Kailan kaya kita makakakamtan,
Kailan kaya ang tamang panahon,
Kung saan ang pagibig nati’y aahon.

Hanggang sa huli ay ikaw,
Sa mga sandaling ninakaw,
Sa piling mo aking giliw,
Oras nati’y walang maliw.
P.S. My very first tagalog poetry in hellopoetry, Sigaw ng Pagibig: Tulong!

Just by looking at your smile,
Everything will be fine in a while,
In all the things we shared together,
Sweet moments, feels forever,
Every time I’m close to you,
Liking you will be impossible too,
May you continue to shine,
Aim high and ask for his divine,
You can do it, I swear you could.

Care to explain who is he in your life?
And joke, you don’t have to answer it,
Right now, I wish you’ll be successful,
Young-like, lovely, and beautiful,
Live life with your own choice.

And one thing that I wish,
Live your life and exist,
And in life not all is true,
May you find it out in blue,
A**nd lastly, Happy Birthday.
P.S. This is my message for that girl's birthday, Hey hope YOU like it, Happy Birthday <3

I love you is not a question,
So I don’t need any answer,
I love you is not a suggestion,
So I don’t need any response.

I love you is not a promise,
So I don’t need any swear,
I love you is not a sentence,
So I don’t need any end.

One thing is for sure on my mind,
I love you is an answered prayer,
For it’s a confirmation above,
That I’m a human with heart.
P.S. I think I love you better now.
P.P.S. THIS WAS COMPOSED EARLY IN THIS MORNING.

I never understood
How anyone could not see the sadness
In you
You smiled
Like being alive was a burden
You danced
Like you wanted to forget the world
You laughed
So beautifully
But it happened so rarely
I wonder
Could I help ease the pain
Of living alone?

I am so tired,
and it makes me so depressed.
I want to take a break,
to everything that makes me freak.
If only my mind can speak,
it will say all the things that makes me weak.
I am starting to hate life,
life I thought it will never be.
maybe I am just so bombarded,
and all I need is to sleep.
Was it just me?
Who fell for your misleading smile?
Was it just me?
Who gave meaning to your silly style?
Was it just me?
Who thought you are worthwhile?
I guess so.

People are just like flowers
Some are loved, some are judged
Some are cared, some are forgotten
Some are known, some are not
But again
Just like flowers
We are all born beautiful
In our own different ways
But not everyone sees that
And like a wilted flower
Some will fade, some will die
Because some will give up
But some will survive
