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.

You are the moon
And I am the wolf that cries
For the love it cannot reach.

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 is to infinity,
It never ends,
It transcends time.

Love is to infinity,
It once went on and on,
It was forever.

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?

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.

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
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
*I wouldn't know
The world is beatific.

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.

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.

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.

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.

Every man
Has his own Atlantis.

A paradise
Submerged forever.

You are
My Atlantis.

I know it's
Kind of impossible.

I'd still be searching
For answers.

Why and how
You disappeared.

And if I'll ever
Find you again.

**My dear Atlantis.

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.

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.

We were matter and energy
That came together.

You were the planet
Which I orbit.

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.

Loving you
Is like
Walking on
A bridge
With every
Piece of wood
Falling
After my
Every step;
There is no
Turning back.

Today
everything
is standing
still
the sun
the sky
you on the other side
and I
still waiting
for you
still staying
for you
proving
you
don't have
to feel
the same.

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.

Even before I knew
What you really are to me
A friend, a bestfriend, a lover
I knew you are someone
I wouldn't want to leave
So hold my hand
I won't let go.

You told me not to be sad
When the rain starts pouring,
I should dance and enjoy
Under the rain.

So that's what I did,
Dancing to the beat of the taps
As the rain falls,
Remembering you.

But you were like the rain,
Just when I'm in the heights of my emotions,
Just when I was falling hard for you,
You stopped, left.

You left me cold and wet,
You know,
You could have been
The arms that wrapped me tight.

There will be people in your life who will make you believe
That your eyes are set on the same stars.

But the dreams that you dreamed together,
Are just dreams that you alone will fulfill.

Minsan talaga hindi ko na alam
     kung bakit pa ako naghihintay
At kung ako naman ay lalaban
     para saan pa ba iaalay.

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.
