Be the reason why people smile
Be the apple of their weary eyes
Be the sunshine through their rain
Be the hand to help them up again
Be the hope when they're upset
Be the dream they wish to get
Be the friend whom they can call
Be the one to have when they lose it all.

It's okay to sometimes cry,
'Cause it's when we know we're alive.
When the wind blows at night,
and we silently watch the stars shine,
we think we're lonely when everyone's alright,
but we don't even seem to realize,
that even the brightest sparks in the sky,
were once the saddest wishes of those eyes,
who wished they were never made to cry.

Maybe it was wrong to love you
Maybe it was wrong to have cared,
Maybe it has never been so true
Maybe I shouldn’t have dared.

Maybe it was never worth it
Maybe it was never really there,
Maybe we never really fit
Maybe it’s just despair.

Maybe it wasn’t good enough
Maybe it wasn’t meant to last,
Maybe the road’s just too tough
Maybe the plains were just too vast.

Maybe I wasn’t able to control
Maybe I just couldn’t do it right,
Maybe I just can’t have it all
Maybe I can’t own such delight.

Maybe I wasn’t able to hold on
Maybe I’ve been so weak and light,
Maybe it was my illusion
Maybe it was never really right.

Maybe I only dreamed
Maybe I was just imagining,
Maybe it’s different as it seemed
Maybe it’s not worth fighting.

Maybe I find it hard to trust
Maybe I never tried to believe,
Maybe I just let things rust
Maybe I’m not worthy to receive.

Maybe I doubted what love is
Maybe I never took chances,
Maybe it was my worst disease
Maybe I deserve to fall into pieces.

Maybe it happened for a good reason
Maybe I should be learning it today,
Maybe I’ll have my perfect season
Maybe I’ll have it soon, someday.

There is nothing left to dream of
All I had now finally went off
Down the drain of this lonely earth
Amidst the teardrops my eyes had to lose.

If there is nothing left to dream of
How could repose be that comforting?
Can the sun and stars still dare believe?
That anyone can do it by just believing.

Still, there’s something left to dream of
Though this tiny universe cannot provide
For the love of human heart is strong
Conquering the lonely people in a throng.

You left me tongue-tied, young man,
Feeling like a soldier with no gun.

Reached for the last piece on the ground,
Still, tripping all over, unarmed.

My lost soul, you found it crumbling,
At the very break of dawn, not surprising.

You gladly took me in your arms,
And all at once, I felt the warmth.

But the next hours were just so tough,
You stole my heart, but just put the flame out.

Spoke your words out of the blue,
From a couple o' songs with a lonely tune.

Please give me a reason not to ever quit,
Love burns, but for you, I'm willing to take a risk.

We can get through the bad times,
even through the worst ones.
We may see our sun down,
but we can get up more than twice.
We can find the light,
in the darkest corners of our soul.
The same way we dream of heaven,
though the world seems to fall.
We can read a lot about others,
And write about our own much better.
We can lead our lives to nowhere,
And see ourselves grow stronger.
We can break our own hearts today,
But we cannot stay broken forever.
We may not realize this clearly now,
But it won't take long before you find the answer.

You looked in my eyes
In deep silence, you knew me
Nothing's there to hide.

I can't promise that I
will be the one to love you 'til the end, but
always remember that even though
love fades in no time,
you will never be effaced from my head, but then...
Regrets are all that linger
amidst the incessant rain in my life
lost that hope to push through
paving way for another strife.
here in this corner, I am alone and blue
Just as what I always expect of me
and all I do is try to forget you
stained by memories of you, I want to be free
over these insanities, I know I can do it
no one can ever make me go astray.
Crushed and dumped, I felt the pain
a sham fantasy, my internal bane,
rust of the past, I shall paint with oblivion
remnants of what used to be ain't worth retrospection.
escaping reality is what I need to do
through a different perspective of what's old and new
everything's gone and is never worth recall
remember you are not and were never my all, and
one more thing, I love you no more, I swear...

'TIL THEY TAKE MY LAST BREATH AWAY...

I saw him. I saw him there.
I saw him again, standing there.
I knew then, the feeling didn't really go away.
It's still there... was always there.
I guess it will always be there....
here... here inside my heart...
where I keep all the memories we had,
the laughter we shared,
those conversations when I knew that he cared,
the tears I shed for the pain I felt,
those nights I spent for remembering him,
the days I knew I've spent loving him
while hurt
feeling the pain
knowing that I won't ever feel him
beside me again.
He was there, I know, he was there.
I saw him standing there.
He's still here in my heart.
But in my life, I know,
he'll no longer be a part...

I've seen her a lot of times
just when I decided to forget you.
I've seen her downtown
just when I thought I got over you.
I've seen her pretty smiles
and I guess that's something for you.
I've seen her glimmering eyes
and I guess those eyes pulled you.
I've seen her looking at me
and I was trying to know what's in her mind.
I've seen her watching me
but I was trying to ignore her every time.
I've seen her, yes, but how I wish I didn't
as she thought I was feeling okay.
I just wish I never had the chance to see
*The reason why I'm still feeling this way.

Less than inspired…
I am
That’s how things work for me
Just like before
Encumbered with nothingness
I knew I’d forever fight a losing battle
And things do happen just like that.
Well, no one cares, no one bothers
Unconsciously…
But you did
I never thought about you having to make me feel this way
I knew then that nothing lasts a lifetime
But I guess, it’s not really meant to be like the way it is in my head
I’d like to believe it wasn’t true.
You are not in my life, never were.
My every single day has to be ordinary.
But then,
I just could not feel anyone beside me
But you, your presence.
I never needed anyone
Just when I feel so alone
Fate has decided
I knew it from the start
I knew I have to realize
Yes.
We’re distant, of two different worlds.
You’re a star, I am nothing.
But these things are superficial!
Where there could not be any living hope
Wonders can still exist
Just when I thought I’d be forever alone
Someone like you has to come along
I always wanted to believe that
Now, I finally do.
But…
I never believed that I might be left hanging again, no!
…that anyone should have to leave sooner or later, no!
…that our differences can build walls around us, no!
I never believed it,
And so
I was so happy!
The kind that could blind reality
You left me with this kind of feeling
Just when you came
You spelled happiness to me.

Here's to the girls
who loved so real, but failed to say
just what they mean, 'cause they were scared
of how they feel, but let it take
a part of them, still.

Here's to the guys
who tried to say just what they feel
but failed to do, 'cause doubt subdued
thinking they might only be rejected
dropping off, they chose to forget.

Here's to the ones
who could have been one
but backing down, they both went on alone
giving up on hope and passion and love,
things went wrong, no one tried harder
Love is strong, but pride got stronger.

It's been a while, and yes, I still wonder why.

I wonder why He made all these things happen.
I wonder why He even let us meet at one point in our lives.
I wonder why He made us feel what we felt before we decided to feel nothing at all.
I wonder why He led us towards each other when we weren't even looking at our way,
then all of a sudden, He pulled him back in and made me alone again.
I did not understand a thing.
I did not see any sign.
I did not like the sound of my tears.
I did not like the way we said good bye.

I kept on asking why.

I kept on singing our old songs.

I kept on browsing through our old photos.

I kept on wondering why He made me cry for you so.

I kept on breaking my heart.

I kept on standing on a dry, cracked ground.

I kept on saying that I wouldn't mind,

but after all this time, all I realized...

If it matters more than anything else, it could've made sense now.

And that hit me deep inside.

Because even when I say that we all heal in time,

I knew I still can't love anyone, when my heart has long died.

I got the reasons in my hand
Had them figured out now and then
But when I try to let them lose
I can't seem to escape from my own blues
And this I'd like you all to know
Without the usual pretty flow
That some things, I know, will set me free
But not thy love in our written tragedy.

Sometimes,
when I think of all the happy times in my life
I never fail to go back to the days when I was with you
When I felt really sure of how the days would go by
As I have you here
As I see you near
As we come close to what's good and real
At least, just the way it seemed.
But now I know it's over
You're never coming back anymore
As you always would back then
When I'd slip away
Tell you "I'm okay"
And try not to look back
As you try to whisper "I'm here to stay."
But things, I know, have changed
And I know how it all became strange
I let you go
Feeling all that we both know
It has turned both our lives
To something we never realized
Because I did walk away
From what could really make me okay
Now I can't get back on track
'Cause I know, I know
You're never coming back.

And when I dreamed of you, I know I’m losing you
I have no power over what I know isn’t true
You were like a million catch of flowers on a cold and barren ground
And just that beautiful when you took my heart

Free, you let those feelings fly around
You never hold it back
‘Twas easy for you to say those words
You never knew, it felt so good

So high, you brought me into highest lands
And pulled my thorns unarmed
Proving to me you’re worth it all
But now, I know I had to break my heart.

If you only see my invisible tears
You would know how much you made me feel
Had to bear with this pain again
‘Cause every day, I wait in vain.

I know I’m not the one you need
But would you mind if you try to erase my fears
I just want to get over you now
Just glad I had it with you, felt it somehow.

It is difficult.
This is difficult.
When you're not used to
being around people,
yet you're stuck in a place
where people expect you
to interact, communicate.
No matter how you hate it,
it's just how things should be.
No place for anxiety.

Don't make sound memories with whom you don't intend to show your deepest affections
in a way that they'd find it hard to cut your connections or burn their wide, infinite illusions.

It's sick when you have to compromise, but it would be wiser to get rid of pungent lies
as we are all humans vulnerable of the pain that not even the thickest firewall can restrain.

Listen to your heart and more to the inner voice that may tell what could cause much disdain
but remember that a single unintentional snick is a lot worse than a miserable life of the bleak.
