paradox

my world revolves around you
yet your gravity keeps pushing me away

it ***** that i can't convince her how much i ******* love her

until it came from you.

Yosi I

Isang kaluluwang
Naglalakad na liban.
Naghahanap ng makakausap
Ngunit walang makitang
makaka-huntahan.

Ngunit may agad na nakapansin
"Ah! Panibagong biktimang aabusuhin!"
Tumawag ang temptasyon sa akin
Pinag-isipan kung agaran kong sasagutin

Ang sigaw niya'y labis na mapang-akit
Kahit alam kong dala-dala niya'y sakit.
Huwag daw akong magpadala;
Konsyensya ko'y sa'kin iginiit
Ngunit ang temptasyon ay kaydali akong napilit.

Isang gabi, habang naglalakad sa kahabaan ng España
Ako'y lumapit sa matandang tindera.
Nag-abot ng konting barya
At kinuha ang lasong mahaba.

Nilapit ko sa aking bibig
At idinaan ang apoy sa dulo nito.
Hinigop ang usok nitong malamig
At ibinuga ito sa aking anino.

Nagpatuloy ako sa paglalakad
At inalala ko lahat ng pangyayari.
Sa bawat kasalanan ko sa'yo'y aking mawawari,
Ako ay hihigop muli.
Sa bawat 'di nasolusyonang pagsubok,
Ako'y magpapasakal sa malamig nitong usok.

This is my second Filipino poem and probably my longest work yet. It looks unfinished really. As much as I want to finish it, I ran out of words and creative juices. This basically sums up the experience of my first cigarette. And it was... not bad.

No one likes to be sad
for the right reasons.

It's strange.
You'd rather cry
because of ruined makeup,
a messy breakup.

But,
a failed exam,
a stab wound,
you'd even laugh through the pain.

or maybe it's just me

the insecure girl

the insecure girl
who sees the beauty
in the twinkling stars and constellations
but refuses to see
the ones in her hazel eyes

the insecure girl
who sees the beauty
in the tallest mountains
and the steepest hills
but refuses to see beauty
in her most beautiful *****
and most curvy behind

the insecure girl
who sees the beauty
in the scorching sun
and the glowing moon
but refuses to see beauty
in her warmest embrace
and her illuminating smile

the insecure girl
who sees the beauty
in everything
but refuses to see beauty
in herself

im running out of words

P's

a fair warning for you
if you are planning to
to fall in love with me
you fall in love with P's

if you fall in love with me
you fall in love with a pessimist
who believes that every single thing will fall apart
every bad thing is bound to happen
so please i ask
help me find the positives
in a world
where negatives are all i see

if you fall in love with me
you fall in love with a paranoid
who breaks almost every night
thinking about how wrong i could be
every choice
every decision
will be the worst one
so please i ask
to accept me
and convince me
that the world is not yet over.

if you fall in love with me
you fall in love with a p-ssy.
a coward
who's afraid to make the first move
who's ashamed to fail.
so please i ask
to wait for me
to be able to overcome my fears.

and lastly,
if you fall in love with me
you fall in love with a poet.
a writer
who's prepared to write everything
and anything
because sadly, that's all i'm good at.
so please i ask
to accept my love
in the form of words
and i will change myself.

i love you so ******* much yet i think you don't feel the same. at least, anymore.

Rain

Rain
slowly pouring down
as all the fragments of time, space,
and every dimension,
collide between every tear
that falls from your lover's eyes.

Rain
is nothing
but salty water.

I am jealous of Poseidon
His hands were able
to trace Cassiopeia on your back;
Closer than my hands have ever been.

inspired by Labrinth's 'Jealous'.

Kalabit

Hindi ko na alam
kung saan ako mas magiging payapa
kung sa kalabit mo sa aking balikat
na malapit nang sumuko
o
kung sa kalabit mo sa gatilyo
na nakatutok sa aking ulo

hindi ko na alam

Patawad.

Puno nanaman ang aking isipan,
Hindi ko alam paano at saan ito sisimulan,
Mga panahong kailangan ko ng kakapitan,
Ikaw sana ang takbuhan ngunit para bang ang layo mo na para akin pang lapitan.

Mga panahong sinabi natin na walang iwanan,
Subalit unti-unti nang napunta sa kawalan,
Marami tanong; maraming kwento,
Sa mga oras na ilalahad mukhang hindi intiresado,

Alam kong pag may umalis sa buhay mo,
Tuluyan mo ng kakalimutan at ika'y lalayo,
Ngunit pag ako'y kailangan,
Wag kang mag-atubiling ako'y tawagan.

Mali bang mapagod? At magpahinga?
Dahil kung mali iyon patawad ngunit kailan ko lang huminga,
Sa mga tingin palang alam kong maraming nagbago.
Kasalanan ko ba 'to? O sadyang hinayaan nalang maging ganito.

Patawad, ilang beses ko ba kailangan sabihin?
Patawad, patawad, patawad. Ilang beses ko ba kailangan ulitin? **Patawad.

Isang salita lang, patawad.
