a leo and a libra
f*ck the constellations
the loose ends
don’t matter anymore
it was destiny, fate




fate has lost faith in us
it was long ago written in the sky
Isabelle Mar 2019
woman, not all lost battle
means defeat, stand still
because someday,
all the tears you shed
will bloom rainbows and gardens
in your heart, in your soul
and you will flourish
oh nothing but a beautiful blossom
Isabelle Feb 2018
steady,
you told me you want
a steady love
sorry i couldn’t give you one
for my love for you
will never be still
it glows, it grows
it’s overflowing, oh darling
my love for you, i can’t contain
it overflows..

wildfire
oh darling this love
i have for you
is like a wildfire
it spreads, in my mind
in my head, in my heart
in my soul, consuming all of me
burning all of me, the flames
it won’t dim, it won’t die
this wildfire.. the heat of this love..
burn me more.. burn me more
oh this wildfire love..
like a wildfire

others wanted me
others hated me
honesty is my name
and it’s such a lonely word

*Dreaming while sleeping, and sometimes awake
Whimsical fancies fueling escape

Wishing is for the uncertainties
Collecting more than three from genies

Checking out my daily horoscope
Astrology might give me some hope

Calling out all the deities I know
Bending my knees, blessings they might bestow

The magic still holds expectations
Of this world its seen from all views

But the signs are unclear, faded
It doesn't feel useful when put to use

And I still await, alone
For something that may just come passing by

Or maybe in the form of an angel
Dancing with howling clouds across the sky
Collaboration with my friend, NB. I'm so happy with this one, thank you for accepting my request!

~
And in a sea of people
You will search for me
That every girl you see
You'll wish it was me

That every eyes you stare
You'll wish it was my glare
That every smile you make
You'll wish its for me to take

That every girl you kiss
You'll compare my luscious lips
That every hand you hold
Will all feel cold

You will look for me in the crowd
You will miss the warmth of my hug
You will search my scent in every girl
You will crave the times we had spent together

You will find traces of me in every girl
But you will never find another me
And I promise you that
You will never find another me

~
And I promise that every time you will think of me, you will wish you should not have let me go..

Fireflies
Light up the night
Spread thy wings and fly high
Away from the fire that destroys
Your wings
Just trying new styles. Hope I gave justice to cinquains.

Baby bump, little baby bump
She is so happy, very very happy
It is her first time to be a mom
And she doesn't want to be ******

She's excited to see her 1st born
9 months, it will take 9 months
Girl or boy, sure she will adore
9 months, it is only for 9 months

Everyday she talks to her angel
Sings a song or tells a story
She always wispher Mommy loves you baby
Wanting to reassure the little angel

Days are fast and the long wait is over
The gift of life is about to be unwrap
Little angel is about to be born
Little angel will bring smile to the world

The sky is beginning to light up
But there are still stars dispersed in the firmament
In the vast universe, a new gift carying her blood
She's so moved that she couldn’t stop crying

What a lovely sound she heard
The first cry sounded like an angel’s trumphet
The most beautiful melody of the moment
The music of the gift of life
Firts cry, confirmation of life and validation of her motherhood.
Isabelle May 2016
Departing from the night
the moon kissed the sun
whispered either good night or good morning
cold day's air is born
waking up the flowers
from the dim light of the dawn

Hello, said the rising sun
Eyes were drunk from the orange juice sky,
a lovely sight, serenity at its best
The birds started chirping, peace it brings to my heart
Smell of coffee and tea
Lingers in the morning air

A very calming effect of the first light
brings a genuine joy to my being
simple moments like this
are always worthy of appreciation
are a proof that there is more to life
Good Morning Friday ;) Stay positive!

Trying to fit in?
I always dreaded that feeling
But then, as they say, change is inevitable
I have to accept it like I don't have a choice at all

So yeah, I will definitely try
Not to fit in the mold
But to keep my shape and smile
Just be myself and be bold
Entry for day 6. An old piece which I revised just now.
When I started to work, every aspect of my life was affected, but didn't totally changed. Change is.. such a big word.
Isabelle Apr 2016
Again, you are trying to fit in
And I always dreaded that feeling
But then, as they say, change is inevitable
I have to accept it like I don't have a choice at all

So yeah, I will definitely try
Not to fit in the mold
But to keep my shape and smile
Just be myself and be bold
Don't just try to fit,
at least create or build a space for yourself. But still, keep the RESPECT and accept the differences. Written date: 9:16pm, Wednesday, April 27, 2016

rest your head
on my lap
the ocean waves will
sing you to sleep
sigh my friend
cry if you must
those tears are
the way to comfort
those tears will
cleanse your heart
let it all out and come to rest
for when the sun rises
flowers will bloom
from the tears you shed

“i have forgotten her”
he whispered to me
but my love, you don’t
you have hidden her
within your words
and fragments of your love
oh i see them in your poetry
Isabelle Nov 2018
i watched you slipped away
slowly taken away by time
the morning
you died in my arms
i didn’t know i could die
a million times
i miss you everyday
.
.
sleep now my love
close your eyes
when you open them
no pain, no tears
you’ll be in paradise
sleep now my love
i’ll watch over the night
when you perish
by the morning light
i’ll sing you a lullaby

Celine Dion- Because You Loved Me

You were my strength when I was weak
You were my voice when I couldn't speak
You were my eyes when I couldn't see
You saw the best there was in me
Lifted me up when I couldn't reach
You gave me faith 'coz you believed
I'm everything I am
Because you loved me


I'm grateful for each day you gave me
Maybe I don't know that much
But I know this much is true
I was blessed because I was loved by you
My safe haven is in her arms. She is my everything. I love you nanay.

Not all who comes back
Should be welcomed
Maybe I've been going back too much lately..
Isabelle Jun 2018
it’s been four months
since you closed your eyes
and never opened them again
it’s been four months
but i replayed that scene
over and over again
it’s been four months
since you left me in pieces
and I haven’t really collected myself
it’s been four months
since you’ve been gone
but why does it always feel like it’s just yesterday?
for my Lola in heaven :((
i have been crying since the morning, too sad today. the longing is unbearable.
Isabelle Sep 2016
You are too busy spending too much
-too much time and effort for her, just for her

That's why you never see,
You never see that my love is free
I'm right in the corner, why can't you see me?

Scrutinizing eyes
All staring at her
They call her a ****
Because she smells
of cigarette and lust
**** society
A smell doesn't tell
The whole story
When did it become a standard???
Isabelle Apr 2017
The future me, my love
Depends on how you treat me now

But then I realized, the future me
Depends on how I allow you to treat me

Going deeper, I realize
The future me, depends on me

Not you, not they
Only me, my choices and ME
Trying hard to catch up with the daily writing.

For 939 years he is living
To live such a long long long life
I do not know if it is a curse or a blessing

Centuries swiftly passes somehow
Past to present, present to future
He was there before, he is here until now

Every death of friend or foe
He witnesses and will never forget
Left alone, soul is full of woe

The Goblin’s immortality
Was said to be a punishment
And never an eternal tranquility

The sword stuck in his heart
Is the key to death he longed for
Then only his life and misery will depart

It is only the Goblin’s bride
Can pull out the sword in his chest
So for centuries he searched for a wife

Until fate finally reveals itself
One look, ahh, a lovely bride he met
Sad love he utters to himself

This love will cause him death
But after a long time, it made him feel alive
Now he don’t want to lose his breath

But his choice will only bring demise
And his newly found happiness
Will only last until his bride dies

Pull out the sword, the Goblin will turn into ashes
Let him live and his bride will die
What a tragic story, love until one perishes

“I have to disappear to make you smile
This is the decision I have to make,
I have to end my life”


It was long ago planned by a diety
Immortality not a reward but a punishment
A sad love, it was their destiny
Note: I somehow altered the ending.

Inspired by Goblin, a korean drama which I finished watching last night. It was sad yet beautiful drama. So beautiful that I can't get over with the story.

Going out today
Summery air on my hair
Beating the hot sun
Out for today. Meet up with a friend :) Sa bahay pa lang pawis na, grabe ang init!

now that you were gone
you were the only ghost
that i want to haunt me
forever and ever
for Lola, now my angel
.
So far, it was the longest days I’ve stayed (home) since you were gone. I guess I have to get used to you being ‘gone’. And when I say “gone” it’s not just being physically absent. It’s not just some word for the emptiness. It’s not just the vacuum.
.
‘Gone’ is the untouched lipstick, not knowing it can’t never be used again. ‘Gone’ is the pair of slippers under your bed, I wonder when was the last time you wore them. ‘Gone’ is realising your armchair is vacant. ‘Gone’ is the unfinished skirt you were trying to sew. ‘Gone’ is the deck of cards left on your cupboard, nobody won’t ever play them again. ‘Gone’ are the half empty medicine containers. ‘Gone’ is the space beside my bed.
.
When we lose someone we scan our mind and heart. We search for memories, those striking and meaningful. We ache for that sentimental and big memories that we often overlooked the simple moments in between. As I stay here in “our” bed, I wish so much that I could just watch you as you play solitaire or as you take your medicines- such ordinary things that I took for granted but would **** to experience one more time when it’s all over.
.
Look at it, there should be no understated days. Seize each moment with your love ones, those tiny little moments are what stitches together our very existence. Appreciate each moment before it becomes a memory. Embrace them, squeeze them tight in your heart because one day, unknown to you, it will be the last time you’ll ever experience them.
.
Oh, how I would defy everything just to hug you one more time. Until we meet again **
.
words on write up inspired by some fb post which i read long ago, can’t remember where i saw it.

Oh, a good morning
Good morning from PH :) The rain finally stopped. How lovely to walk outside..

baby it’s winter
but you always make my heart
feels like it’s summer
the heat of your love..
Isabelle Apr 2016
It says no
It says yes

My mind is confuse
My heart is bruise

My mind thinks of the pain
But my heart beats your name

Half of my heart still wants you
But the other half is untrue

*Half of my heart has moved on
But the other half takes time

Hanggang dito na lang..


Mahal, hanggang dito na lang tayo
Ubos na ang mga luha
At namumugto na ang mga mata
Wala ng magbabago pa, wala na
(Wala na nga ba? Ako ay umaasa pa)
Dahil ikaw ay malayo na, ikaw ay malaya na
Nakakabaliw.
Trying hard sa tagalog poem
Isabelle Dec 2016
You left me hanging
In the middle of nothing
In between love-lust-friendship
I do not know what it is
But sure, it is more than something
Because I felt everything

When you touched me
When you kissed me
It is more than lust
When you held me
When you smiled at me
My feelings I trust

But suddenly you became a ghost in town
Haunting me from dusk to dawn
You left without footprints on the ground
You left without marks to be found
Like a thief you were gone
You stole my heart and left me undone

Holding on to something that is fading
Still believing it is more than something
It’s my only way to console myself
It’s my only way to redeem myself
I have been fooled, I have been fooled
Now I am gloom, I am in gloom

No words of goodbye
Only memories that haunts me
Is everything just a lie?
Why do you have to do this to me
Every night I wish you are at my side
Will  you comeback to me?
Will you?

Hatred

your kiss felt like Judas,
— a betrayal
and if my forgiveness
is your pass to St. Peter
i’m telling you,
you better make friends
with Satan now
you’ll probably go to hell
i’ll drag you
with me
Isabelle Sep 2016
I thought I was screaming
I thought I was loud enough

Maybe I was just screaming in silence
Maybe I was just loud in my mind

That's why nobody will hear me
Nobody will ever hear me..
I don't know where it should go.. It's my subconcious that is speaking, trying to decipher what my soul is telling me.
Isabelle Aug 2016
It was supposed to be painful
I've seen it, I've read it

I've seen it in tv dramas
I've seen it in the movies
I've read it in fairytales
I've read it in novels

It seems painful
Sleepless night
Endless fight
Not able to eat
Not able to think

It seems painful
River of tears
Drowning with fears
Some gave it a try
Some continued to lie

It seems painful
Some still chase the other
Some becomes bitter
Some becomes a hater
Some turns into a monster

It seems painful
She cried
He begged
She never moved on
He never let go

Some have been cheated
Some have been left behind
Sometimes love is not enough
Sometimes a one sided love
And others, its just the fire was gone

Break-ups seems painful
I've seen it in movies
I've read it in books
Almost all types of love stories
Almost all types of heartbreaks

Different kinds of people
Different scenarios
Different endings
Common denominator is
- LOVE and PAIN

Now I understand
Where all those stories came from
For every person is a different story
For every love is a different love
For every pain is a different pain

What I have watched, doesn't shows it all
What I have read, doesn't describes it all
For everything is a new one
And sometimes words are not enough
And some stories are yet to be done
But nothing came out. "Okay" was the only word I uttered. I walk away. It wasn't numbness, it's more like, I was empty and I can't describe it. Well, maybe that's how I broke my heart and maybe that's my definition of painful.

Helmet
isinuot hindi sa ulo
kundi sa puso.

Kung sakaling maaksidente,
sa pag-ibig
di gaano ang sakit
di gaano ang sugat

Helmet
para sa puso
para di mabasag
para di madurog

Helmet
para sa puso

Helmet
kailangan ko
yung matibay
yung di mababasag
Helmet
para sa puso ko
Kung ano anong naiisip ko. Di makatulog.

I picked a flower
Then ripped its petals
He loves me,
He loves me not,
He loves me,
He loves me not

I picked 2 flowers
Then ripped its petals
He loves me,
He loves me not,
He loves me,
He loves me not

I picked 3 flowers
Then ripped its petals
He loves me,
He loves me not,
He loves me,
He loves me not

I thought of buying a bouquet
And try again
He loves me,
He loves me not
Only to realize
That it was too much
To waste beautiful flowers
For an ugly love like ours
He loves me not..

Hemorrhage

a fatal hemorrhage
blood blood blood
hurt hurts the heart
but the patient poet
is still breathing, alive
blood dripping
draining her out
but she’s a fighter and so
she bleed words instead
the page is almost full
but still a hemorrhage of words
continuously pours out
from her jaded soul and broken heart

This morning will be a different one, for he will meet a girl
With an auburn eyes, a winsome smile and a hair that is curl
Strange she is, but in a beautiful kind of strange

The boy will stop and stare, will be lost in her haunting sad eyes
She will not notice, and will never knew, that cupid has
shot the boys young heart

The boy found a reason to go out every morning
To see her again, he was hoping
For her smile becomes the sun that brightens his day

He will sit from afar, and with an admiring eyes, just watch her
She paints, she reads, and sometimes plays with her dog's fur
He will silently watch and enjoy the beautiful scenario

It goes for almost a week
"I must be crazy, why do I stalk this chic?"
But he doesn't know the answer

All he know is, the girl brings peace to his heart
Her eyes and smiles are a piece of a pure art
and her laughs are a song to his ears

He could not explain it, watching her makes him happy
and sends a warm chill to his heart, very fancy
"I need to know her name"

The next day, the boy waited in vain
But the girl never came
"I'll wait again tomorrow"

It's been a week, but she never showed up again
In his chest a sadness and pain
Could not accept, she looked for the girl

He found out that the girl loves to paint
But the smell of the chemical will cause her to faint
That's why she sneaks out and do it once in a while

He found out that the girl loves reading
But her eyes failed her, every letters are dancing
That's why she sneaks out and pretends to read

He also found out that her hair was just a wig
And her red lipstick was to hide her pale lips
And finally he found out her name








With a sound of a breaking heart
He reads her name
*On her graveyard
