Idiosyncrasy Nov 2016
Ikaw yung unang ulang bumuhos**
Pagkatapos ng mahabang tagtuyot.

You were the first rain that came
After the long drought.

Seashells
Idiosyncrasy Aug 2015
We picked the seashells on the shore,
You hear them whisper in your ears,
I always love to hear you share what they speak,
Their words with different voices,
I always thought you just pretend,
So I pretended to understand,
Now you are far
Beyond the horizon that we see
Whenever we watch the sun wake and sleep,
I picked a seashell on the shore
And hear it whisper in my ear,
I hear your voice saying I love you.
Idiosyncrasy Jul 2015
You are the moon
And I am the wolf that cries
For the love it cannot reach.

Sana hindi na lang
Idiosyncrasy Apr 2017
Hindi ko sasabihing sana hindi nalang kita nakilala
Hindi ko sasabihing sana hindi kita minahal
Pero sana hindi mo nalang sinabi na mahal mo ako
*Kung sa dulo ng lahat ng ito
Hindi ka naman pala sigurado.
I Wish

I'm not going to say I wish we never met
I'm not going to say I wish I never loved you
But I wish you didn't tell me you love me
If at the end of all of this
You are not sure.

How did we end up like this?

Sakura
Idiosyncrasy Mar 2016
All good things come to an end
The sakura blooms and leaves in a week
That's why there's a rare chance to see it's beauty
Just like there was just one chance for you and me
So sometimes I take comfort that our love was too good then
But I wish not all good things should come to an end.

Love:Infinity
Idiosyncrasy Sep 2015
Love is to infinity,
It never ends,
It transcends time.

Love is to infinity,
It once went on and on,
It was forever.
We might have ended but my love for you continues in my poems.

Salita
Idiosyncrasy Aug 2015
Ikaw at ikaw
Ang pipiliin ko
Hanggat kaya ko
Ang tinig mo
Ang natatanging
Papakinggan ko
Hanngang sa pagtulog
Dahil hinding hindi na
Hindi na mapapalitan
Ang iyong mga salita.
Translation:

Words

You and only you
Would be the one I'd choose
Until I can, until I breath
Your sound
Would be the only one
That would sing me
Until I sleep
Because your words
Won't be changed
It'll forever stay.

Bago magtapos ang Buwan ng Wika...

Nakalimutan ko na
Idiosyncrasy Aug 2016
Huminga ulit ako nang malalim
Pinipigilan kong pumatak ang aking mga luha
Binasa ko ang mga tulang sinulat ko noon
Binasa ko ang mga tulang nag-iwan ng bakas sa akin.

Wala na, pumatak na ang unang luha
Di ko na maalalang sinulatan kita
At na sa bawat salita ay naiisip ka
Nalimot ko na ang masasaya.

Pumatak ang pangalawa
At tuloy tuloy na ang pagbagsak ng tubig mula sa aking mata
Hindi dahil sa puro sakit at lungkot ang naiwan sa akin
Kundi dahil hindi ko maalalang minahal kita.

At habang binabasa ko ang mga linyang tumutugma
Nagugulo ang isip ko sa mga salitang naisulat pala
Masakit na wala na akong mabalikan
Wala akong alaala at hindi na mauulit ang nakaraan.

Mahirap ang makalimot
Ngunit alam kong mahirap pa ang malimutan
Mahirap ang...
Bakit ko ba sinusulat ito?
Parang nakalimutan ko na ring magsulat.

Gem
Idiosyncrasy Aug 2015
Gem
I was a gem trapped in stone
You failed to see me by who I really am
You gave up though you tried
To show the world to me
And me to the world.

Now I'm a gem on a marvelous ring
I wish someone has tried before you
I wish you were the one who finally
Showed the world to me
And me to the world.

Melody
Idiosyncrasy Jul 2015
You were the hymn I once hummed,
The chords that are hard for me to play,

The notes I could never reach,
But you will always be my melody,
The beat of my heart.
Once mine, always my beloved.

Falling Out of Love
Idiosyncrasy Oct 2015
I try to write poems
About how I love you
How you are my world
How my heart beats your name
But the lines don't even touch my heart anymore
And the ends never rhyme again
The final couplet waits for the last verse
I don't want to say this
But maybe this is how the sonnet ends
I'm falling out of love I guess.

To Infinity and Beyond
Idiosyncrasy Jul 2015
We first met,
Rocket taking off to space.

More time spent with you,
The beautiful view of the earth, the moon and the stars.

An unstable moment,
Left the extra load and moved on.

Our second chance,
The view gets more magical and enchanting.

And now,
*We are to infinity and beyond.

If I Didn't Love You
Idiosyncrasy Sep 2015
If I didn't love you
I wouldn't be crying myself to sleep
And wake up just to cry.


If I didn't love you
I wouldn't be this numb
Because I've been hurt too much.


But I know,

If I didn't love you
I wouldn't even know
What love itself was.


If I didn't love you

Another Dream
Idiosyncrasy Jul 2015
I woke up
With a heavy heart
Today
Tears slowly rolling
Down my face
That made things
Much worse
For I'm feeling
Every move
Of pain.

I dreamed of you
Last night
You came by
I was like a prisoner
Expecting no
Visitors at all
You brought tulips
Orange and violet
So I knew
I was happy.

That was my dream
After a very long time
I guess
I need not say
Why I woke up
With a heavy heart
Tears slowly rolling
Down my face
Feeling every move
Of pain.

of cities and lullabies
Idiosyncrasy Oct 2018
I went straight home speeding and brought another blanket in
But you said the pain is enough to warm your skin.

I said the sun found another reason to leave at dusk
And the moon asks for praise for saving us.

Maybe they should have let the stars shine brighter in the day
So the city lights, come dark, could lead the way.

Across cities, you have listened to my lullabies
Should I sing to you one more time or would you be the one to say goodnight?

Tuck me in and say goodbye
This time
This
time.
Unexpected.

Where Do Broken Hearts Go?
Idiosyncrasy Jan 2016
I have seen lonely places
But where do broken hearts go?
Do they look for home?
But where do broken hearts go
If home is where they just came from?

So where do broken hearts go?
Do they find somewhere new out there?
Or are they too broke to even care?

Where do broken hearts go?
Do they wait to meet another broken heart
So together they could make a start?

Oh where do broken hearts go?
I wish I do know
Where I'm going.
New tasks. New heart.
Idiosyncrasy Jul 2015
There is something beautiful in black and white,
For sometimes we need a break in this world full of light and shades,
We need something peaceful to feel we're at home,
We just need to hold on to a few things, greater things.

There is something beautiful in black and white,
It's like you and I, like us.

surprises
Idiosyncrasy Jul 2018
To you
I was never really fond of surprises
Then you came
The day I met you
I was glad to have found someone I get along with
That wasn’t the surprise
The surprise was when you first cheered my name
And how I wanted you to cheer me all the way
I wasn’t surprised when you walked me home
What surprised me was when I didn’t feel home when you walked away
So for many weeks or months
My heart jumps because of the surprise of you in everyday
So for many weeks or months
I wasn’t sure
And that’s not knew
I think I was never really certain of anything
Wait
I was never really certain of anything until there was you
And it’s funny how one I’m very sure of
Still surprises me
Like the night you tucked my hair behind my ear
Underneath the streetlamp
No brighter than you who have given light
In the past few months of chaos
Your eyes shined like they wanted to stay
It wasn’t surprising when you asked me if I like you, the next day
But I was surprised because, “I like you,” was all you wanted to say
The first time you said you love me
I wish I’ve said it before you did
I was pretty sure I’ve felt that way a long time ago
And it has been a while since those times
I couldn’t say it was a surprise when we ended
Neither was the fact that I didn’t want it too
It was amazing
How I waited for shooting stars and 11:11s
How I wanted to go back in time and make things better
How I tried to tell you and show you
That some things didn’t change
I still love you
I still love you
I couldn’t say it was a surprise when I stopped hearing that
But I was sure of what a surprise it is when you came back
You showed me what love is
In colors
Wrapped in silver and gold
When you looked at me
I saw what those stories told
In winks and glances
I am not letting go of any more chances
It was not a surprise that my heart still beats the same track
And I will replay over and over
That time you told me, “You’re not alone anymore,”
What a surprise that was right after all this time
When you hugged me
You picked up the pieces I thought were lost forever
You
Yes, you
I am not really fond of surprises
But you were the best yet.
I thought I've posted this already.

Journey
Idiosyncrasy Jul 2015
Cars and vans,
Planes and ships,
They'd take you
Anywhere you want,
And then you'll leave
Or they will,
You'll realize
You don't mind
The amazing views,
All you want
Is their comfort,
The bumps, the plains,
The moving scene, the joy,
The journey.

Has his own Atlantis.

Submerged forever.

For answers.

You disappeared.

And if I'll ever
Find you again.

You were the planet

We were the stars
In binary system.

You were the Galaxy
Nearest to me.

We were like sun and comet
Coming back to each other.

You were the life
In my far away world.

I tell you this
And this alone.

*The universe came to be
When you and I happened.

heights
Idiosyncrasy Apr 2017
To you
     who are afraid of heights
   Not because you're afraid to fall
   But because you're afraid
     you will not know how to get down
   Because sometimes you need to
     when you've been way way up
               You can keep chasing the stars
               But you will need to feel the ground
               Don't lose someone who makes you feel so.
Fear of heights. I have nothing to lose.

Because of you,
Then I began
To feel the air

If it's because of the gravity
Or because of you.
Don't ask me what's up because I'm kind of feeling down :)

Key
I lost the key to my heart,
I cannot open it myself,
Of all those who broke in
I do not know who found it,
I do not know who took it
So he could come in again,
I wonder why he still locked it
Did he think I won't notice?
I know there is him
I hope I'm not wrong
And I wish he'd come again
This time I'll let him stay.

Starlight
Idiosyncrasy Jul 2015
I love the night sky
Dark but not empty
Mysterious and deep
I don’t want the starlight
Cold and far away
Bright like hope
Like empty promises
 
A streak of starlight came
I hated starlight more
But I realized
Starlight makes me see
Through the deep dark sky
I hated it no more
It’s your dream to be reached
It’s the fulfillment not hope.

The stars are out tonight,
I wonder if we wish on the same star,
I wish on the brightest star in sight,
And wonder if we wish the same this hour.

All the stars were what I wished for,
All the stars and you,
But they say to me you are not for,
I see the rain in your eyes fall too.

When all the words rhyme
And everything's the right sign,
I guess we'll have our time
When all the stars align.

Remembering you.

But you were like the rain,

Just when I was falling hard for you,
You stopped, left.

Maybe those are all I have to gain
But thank you

At kung ako naman ay lalaban

Minsan hindi ko na alam
     kung bakit pa ako umaasa
At kung titigil naman
     nangangapa ako ng rason para tumuloy pa.

Minsan hindi ko na rin alam
     kung bakit pa ako humihiling
At kung itatapon ko nalang
     hinahabol naman ako ng mga bituin.

Minsan hindi ko alam
     kung bakit nakakaya ko pang magbigay
At kung ako naman ay tatanggi
     hindi ko rin makita ang saysay.

Minsan hindi ko na alam
     kung bakit pa kita minamahal
At kung susubukan kong magdahilan
     naiisip ko pa ring sumugal.

Minsan hindi ko na rin alam
     kung bakit hindi pa ako sumusuko
At kung ihihinto na
     sarili ko rin lang ang aking niloloko.

Minsan hindi ko na talaga alam
     minsan hindi ko na mahanap ang kasagutan
Ngunit sana makahanap ako ng kasiguraduhan
     *kahit minsan lang.

From the west to the east,
Traveling north to south,

But eyes cold and gray for
How far and how deep she reigns
Is how far and deep she thinks of him,
She is the queen of hearts
But never of his,
*And just like the queen of hearts,
We want what we can't have.
