Heartbreak
Z Aug 2021
I am still haunted
with the most
heartbreaking words
you've ever told me

"I will wait for you
because
I believe in you."

And all I ever did was
make you wait.

Pain
Z Aug 2021
I still remember
the most painful words
I've ever received
from you

"We all have reasons
(to give up),
and mine
was simply
you."

let me tell me you something about colors

silver produces red
red and silver
turns white into black
black brings you yellow
until you end up with blue

Save me
Z Sep 2020
I'm tired
You're urging me
to keep doing it
to keep up
but how can I?
I'm already way too deep
I'm drowning
Save me

I love you
as much as I loved myself
You love me
the best way you possibly can

But,

I don't love myself anymore
and you?
You just simply can't find reason
to love me anymore

Hello,
Can you promise me one thing?
Please don't forget me.
I told you I won't start with hello
for it always end with goodbye
But I think,
the time has come
Goodbye.
For you

He pretend he's strong
and acts like nothing is wrong
but he is not a stone
He cries when he's alone

so when you meet him along the way
greet him and say hey
tell him to have a good day
because everything will be just okay

Gloomy sky
Deafening silence
It started pouring
I am not sure
Are these rain?
or are these my tears?
Like rain that I can't stop from falling
I can't stop my heart from breaking
But at least this time...
I am no longer alone
Because the clouds are crying with me

Tick tock tick tock
Z Aug 2020
Another Tuesday morning
Woke up from a bad dream
Last night didn't end well
Screams heard from here and there

Got up and checked the clock
Tick tock tick tock
I need to be quick
Don't have time to think

What a way to start my day
Series of unfortunate events
Pile of letters and bills
Unwashed dishes
Broken toaster
Spilled coffee
Disheveled hair
Worn out clothes
Forgotten umbrella
I am running out of time

Road construction ahead
Here I am still stuck in traffic
Tick tock tick tock
I need to start moving

Hello... Stranger?
Z Aug 2020
Haven't heard from you for so long
Feels like I don't know you anymore
I wonder where did it all go wrong
Let's go back to how it was before

Z Aug 2020
We played a game
and i am "it"
I started counting
1, 2
Go and run fast
3, 4
Hide where I can't see
5, 6
Walls, shadows and words
They help you disappear
7, 8
I keep on searching

I'm starting to get tired

You're finally found.
You are meant to be found.
Anohana.
Menma, found you!

Kismet
Z Aug 2020
We didn't end up together.
I am the sunshine.
You are the storm.
We are the sunshower.
Our memories are rainbow.

We are perfect yet not.
We are equal yet opposite.

But....
You are you,
and I am me.

No matter how we end up
in thousand realities,
I'll keep on dreaming
for there's one thing
I am sure of....

That one day
You and I
will eventually have
our happy ending.

Rainbow
Z Aug 2020
We tried to be together.
You are the sunshine.
I am the storm.
We are the sunshower.

But....

Everything is temporary
A fleeting moment of bliss
You can't calm the storm,
so you stop trying.
I can't stay in your light,
so I stop coming.

We've come to accept
that sunshines and storms
can never be together.

You lost your brightness
Your happiness.
Your smiles.
I've got to let you go.

But there will be a rainbow
A haunting reminder
that once in our lifetime
our paths crossed.

Sunshower
Z Aug 2020
How can we be together?
I am the sunshine.
You are the storm.
But then you chose me,
and I accepted you.

Together,
We are the Sunshower.
Gloomy yet warm.
Pouring yet calm.
Unexpected.
Rare.

Together,
We are imperfectly perfect
and until now,
the idea of us
still amazes me.

Z Aug 2020
She radiates happiness.
Smiles.
Warmth.
Positivity.
A beautiful sunshine.

And me...

I am filled with sorrow.
Chaotic.
Cold.
Gloomy.
A dark storm.

How can we be together?

And it was enough
It was worth it

But it doesn't mean
You have to see me too
Because I don't deserve
Someone as precious as you

I'm tired.
I'm sad.
I'm disappointed.
I feel like a fool.
I'll keep on trying.
I'm jealous.
I'm breaking in silence.
I'll be waiting.
Even though my heart aches,
It's okay.
I still love you.
I always have.
I always will.
I hope you still love me too.

Z Jul 2020
I'm still alive
I am still breathing
But... Every day
It gets even harder

I used to feel tired
to feel accomplished
But.... Now
I'm just numb

I don't feel anymore
Like a zombie
Wandering the Earth
with a meaningless life
there's nothing that can cure me

It's Okay
Z Jul 2020
Maybe it's her grumpy side that I fell in love with
Maybe it's her patience, or her whole existence
that made me want to be with her
or maybe it's her "I miss you" that made me stay
Maybe the only reason I stayed is because I love her
I love her that even though it hurts, I keep saying I'll stay

Maybe it breaks me when she only sees the worst in me
Maybe I apologized way too much
Maybe it's her "I'm used to it"
that made me stop doing anything
Maybe the only reason I stayed is because I'm used to it
I'm used to the pain every time she ignores me

Maybe she don't want me anymore
Maybe I'll reach my breaking point
Maybe we need to set each other free
Maybe we are not meant to be with each other's arms
But until that happens, I'll stay
and I'll keep saying "it's okay"

Why I write
Z Apr 2020
I write...
...because I have no one to play along with when I was young
...because I'm too skinny to play sports when I was on grade school
...because my grandmother gave me a pen and a paper as a birthday gift
...because I want to impress the girl next door
...because I got very ill I need to stay indoors for a whole month
...because I don't want to forget
...because I got my heart broken
...because I miss her a lot
...because there's a lot of things running on my mind
...because my mom loves my poems
...because I'm happy
...because I failed my major subject
...because I'm too bored
...because I got accepted for a job
...to explore all the things I'm afraid of.
...to convey the words I ******* say.
...to help others understand me, to help me understand me.

And I will keep on writing

Jealous
Z Apr 2020
I'm jealous of the way
you care for others
yet you can't even ask how my day was

I'm jealous of the way
you make time for others
yet you ignore me all the time

I'm jealous of the way
you smile at the littlest thing they do
yet you disregard all my efforts

I'm jealous
that you can be happy without me
yet my heart is shattering
at the thought of not being with you

I'm sad
I'm disappointed
I'm jealous
but I still love you
Always have, always will

If Ever
Z Apr 2020
If ever we leave this moment
Please remember all the good times
Days filled with laughters
With two hearts beating the same rhythm

If ever we look back
Please forget about the bad times
The petty fights and silent treatments
Where everything is taken for granted

If ever we change
Please promise not to forget us
The “us”, who faced life’s twists
The “us”, who overcame the same

If ever our fate cross again
Please let's reminisce together
Those days made all seemed better
Even when we ignore each other

If ever there’s another chance
Please let’s make new memories
No hesitation, no guilt
This time, no goodbye
Apr 2020 · 72
Trying
Z Apr 2020
I don't understand you anymore
or maybe
we never understood each other at all

Sometimes,
You're as warm as a wool sweater
Sometimes,
You're as cold as the morning breeze
When I don't have time for you,
you get mad
When I exert effort to make time for us,
you ignore me
When I give you enough time,
you feel unsatisfied

I know I'm not perfect
I have the same flaws too
But please know that I'm trying
to be the best that I can be for you

Please don't ignore my I miss you
Please reply to my I love you
Please tell me how your day was
Because all I want is to be noticed by you

It's been a week already
I still feel sad
I still feel disappointed
And I still love you
I always will
poem out of frustration. forgive me.

Z Apr 2020
With a gasp I wake
Another day I dread
Must I go? Can’t I stay?
I’ll behave I pray

With a crushing disappointment
I got up
to face the day
I want to give up

A smile on my face, I got ready
With a spring on my steps,
I waved eagerly
The mask I wear feels itchy

With my head held down, I arrived
Heard voices I so despise
When will it end, this torment
Or shall I end myself instead?

You
Z Mar 2020
You
The smell of your hair
when you first get out of the shower
The way you rub your eyes in the morning
when you first wake up
All those little things about you
are the reasons the world desrves you

You're made of so much beauty
But it seems that you forgot
when you decided you were defined
by all the things that you're not.

You are not the movies you see
You are not the food you eat
You are not the people you talk to
You are not the clothes you wear
You are not the words you swear
You are neither stupid nor ugly
You are neither too skinny nor too chubby
You are neither too perfect nor a defect
You are not who others want you to be
and you are not going to let anyone label you

Forget about the past
Forget about who you're not
Remember who you love
And feel beauty in your reflection
You are you
You are something much beyond

Buhay
Z Nov 2019
Sa pagdaan ng araw, nadaragdagan
Mga katanungan sa aking isipan
Ngunit paano ko nga ba sisimulan
Saan matatagpuan ang kasagutan

Tama ba na akin pang abuting pilit
Pangarap na noo'y ninais makamit
Kung katumbas nito ay hirap at sakit
Idagdag pa ang mga pangmamaliit

Minsan naisip ko, ano ba ang saysay?
Bakit patuloy pa tayong nabubuhay?
Nagtitiis sa mundong puno ng lumbay
Kung sa huli tayo rin ay mamamatay

Marahil ay alam ko naman ang sagot
Dito sa tanong ko na paikot-ikot
Ako ay sadya lamang na natatakot
Na lahat ay magiging isang bangungot

CAFE
Z Jan 2019
Sometimes,
I walk around
Scan the crowd
Randomly sit on a cafe
And wonder if that is the place
Where our paths will cross.

If that day happens,
Would you randomly sit with me
As if we've known each other
For a very long time
Would you start to walk with me
And never leave my side?
Oct 2018 · 347
Masaya ako
Z Oct 2018
Masaya ako

Ulit-ulitin mo hanggang sa maniwala sila

Masaya ako

Ulit-ulitin mo hanggang sa maniwala ka

Masaya ako

Ulit-ulitin mo hanggang sa mapagod ka
Masaya ako. Masaya ako. Masaya ako.
