"Who is the person that you write about? And picture so elegantly?"

*its never just one person, bits and pieces mostly

For all my life I've been searching
I've tripped, stumbled and I had lost my way
For all these years I've been yearning
I was fooled and blinded looking for the one to stay
For all the broken hearts I thought I could endure
I stood up, picked up the pieces and restored what remained
For all the tears that fell before I grew and matured
I tasted and swallowed the pain more than what I could sustain

Someday I know I'll find someone
To share this burst of life we all possess
Some way I know I'll get to where
I could come give you my love and caress
Somehow I know I'll get my chance
To prove to the world that I deserve your love
Someday I know I will find you
The fallen one sent for me from heaven above

The search began when we were apart
The search bore fruit when I found your heart
The search ends when our love begins to start
This search for the belle who scribbled her name on my heart

I think I found you.

"Pag-ibig ay darating sa'yo" sabi ng mga makata,
Wari'y sa edad ko ang pag-ibig ay mahirap makita,
Ilang beses nga bang kailangang sabihin?
Talaga bang mapait ang dapat kong sapitin?
Higit isang dekada na 'ko sa mundo ngunit ang pag-ibig ay 'di mahagilap,
Ganito ba talaga ito kahirap?
'Di ko naisip na ito'y aabot pa sa ganito,
'Di ko napaghandaan at wari'y 'di napagtanto,
Lingid sa aking kaalaman,
Kaya 'di ko natandaan
At mas lalong 'di ko napaghandaan,
Ayaw na niya pala at matagal na niyang kinimkim,
Ako'y nasugatan at nagdusa ng mataimtim,
Sabi ni Inay: "Ba't ba wala kang dala?
Ilang beses ko ba dapat sabihin na wag mo ng hahanapin ang wala?"
