She said "I'm falling in love."

I said "I'm falling apart."

Kasing gulo ng nangingig na kamay
Ang desperadong utak na matamlay

Sa madilim at malaking kwarto
Walang laman, kahit na nga anino

Walang kulay sa madilim na sulok ng bahay
Nabubuhay sa hinga ngunit mistulang walang saysay

Kung minsan mas manhid pa sa patay
Ang katawang malamig na nakalatay

i have re-written myself a million times,
tried to find who i am in between lines,
but i’m still clueless.

It’s too noisy these days
I’m at the point where I don’t want to listen
Seems everybody’s got something to say
Leave me alone please
I don’t want to hear your chatter anymore
I wish I had a remote so I could mute you all

-AJT

“don’t you miss me?..”
i cry
knowing that the answer
is not in my favor
