Hindi ko kaya.
Hindi ko kaya na itapon ang litrato mo.
Mga litratong hawak hawak ko gabi gabi.
Ito lang ang nagbibigay sakin ng saya.

Hindi ko kaya.
Hindi ko kaya na alisin ka sa bawat panaginip.
Dahil tuwing nakakasama ka sa panaginip.
Ayoko nang magising.

Hindi ko kaya.
Hindi ko kaya na manghula pa.
Nangangapa sa dilim, naghihintay ng sagot.
Na tila hindi naman darating.

Hindi ko kaya.
Hindi ko kaya na kalimutan ang sakit.
Ang sakit na dulot ng pag-alis mo,
na bumasag sa puso ko.

Hindi ko kaya.
Hindi ko kaya na kalimutan ka.
Dahil kahit na anong mangyari,
Mahal na mahal padin kita.

I wonder where you are,
at this midnight hour.
Are you still wide awake?
Or in the company of somebody else?

Flashbacks of gloomy, dreary nights
made bright by your loving presence
had suddenly flooded me,
this tide of emotions, I can’t stop.

My midnights before were bliss,
whenever I spent it with you.
Do you remember how we looked up in the sky,
and watched the clouds as they drifted by?

Midnights filled with love,
I miss the way you talked to me
Your touches filled with gentleness
that comes with loving promises of forever.

My heart was empty, but why did
it weigh me down so much?
I'd rather live in an illusion with you,
than stay in this cruel reality without you by my side.

And here I am,
counting the stars alone,
with teary eyes,
and a shattered heart.

My, what a gloomy night
The clouds came with a furious shower.
In the cold grass I lay
feeling the sadness of the hour.

I hated staying awake
every midnight,
for I remembered every heartache
as I looked up in the moonlight.

I watched the stars
as they twinkled in the starry night
Like the stars, you felt so far
You're gone, way out of sight.

No matter what I do,
nothing can bring you back.
The clouds have calmed themselves,
but my eyes continued its painful shower.

i remember the cold breeze
of that night,
that wouldn't cease,
the coldness, it increased,

the melancholia that I felt
deep inside my heart, it dwells
the unexplainable sadness
that came with fits of madness.

i remembered, you were the remedy
your voice's melody
was enough to calm my demons
but you're gone,

Wandering aimlessly down this road
My pointless journey left my mind cluttered
Confused and dazed, I felt my heart shatter
Everything around me reminded me of you.

I passed down a shop with beautiful flowers
To ease my disoriented heart, I bought a bouquet
Hoping that these flowers would convey
What my heart really wanted to say

Yet on my quest to reclaim your heart I failed
I saw you with another man, away you trailed.
I felt my heart sinking under the weight
Of losing somebody I love, I was too late.

That night, I tried to rid my mind of you.
Standing silently, my teary eyes glittered in the moonlight.
It took only a few moments
for me to realize how the flowers reminded me of our love.

The poor roses that sat near the window lost its color.
I realized that like flowers, my heart was withering.
Inside this heart of mine was nothing but pain,
as I relive everything that happened that day.

— The End —
