Just by looking at your smile,
Everything will be fine in a while,
In all the things we shared together,
Sweet moments, feels forever,
Every time I’m close to you,
Liking you will be impossible too,
May you continue to shine,
Aim high and ask for his divine,
You can do it, I swear you could.

Care to explain who is he in your life?
And joke, you don’t have to answer it,
Right now, I wish you’ll be successful,
Young-like, lovely, and beautiful,
Live life with your own choice.

And one thing that I wish,
Live your life and exist,
And in life not all is true,
May you find it out in blue,
A**nd lastly, Happy Birthday.
P.S. This is my message for that girl's birthday, Hey hope YOU like it, Happy Birthday <3

Am I jealous?, I don’t know.
Maybe yes but partly no,
Am I jealous?, I don’t think so,
Feelings I want to let go.

I really don’t know why,
Things are meant to be a lie,
I just don’t get it how,
Things are made now.

A part of me is denying,
The other part is confirming,
Maybe yes, maybe no,
Feelings I don’t know.
P.S. Am I Jealous is a breath of fresh air from my timeline because this is my first poem that is not about bitterness or death, something about love.

Buti nalang Sabado bukas,
Isang pinto ang magbubukas,
Upang sa wakas ay makatakas,
Gamit ang natitira pang lakas.

Matitigil na ang pagdalusdos,
Ng mga kahoy na dos por dos,
Na tiyak ang paghagupit,
Sa balat niyang may lupit.

Isa, dalawa hanggang lima,
Ang binilang na pagtalima,
Upang tuluyang makawala,
Sa mga leong nagwawala.

Ngunit sa oras nang pagtakas,
Naiwan ang mahalagang bakas,
Kaya’t ‘di naabutan ng bukas,
Ang biyernes ay naging wakas.
(Esperanza's Last Friday)

Isang gabi nang pagmamahalan,
Sa ating dalawa tila’y nanahan,
Sa panahong nagawang tumahan,
Baguhan sa mukha **** luhaan.

Sa sayaw na ang awit ritmo ng mga puso,
Sa ilalim ng buwan na walang pagsuko,
Sayaw na walang halong pagsusumamo,
Sayaw na tanging tayo ang nagpaamo.

Ngunit mapagbiro ang tadhana,
Sa panahong ika’y kapiling na,
Isang sibat ang sa puso’y tumama,
Agad-agad sa kawalan ay sumama.

Hindi akalain na ito na nga ang huli,
Munting sayaw na ‘di natin kakampi,
Sa oras na tayo’y dapat nagtimpi,
Tila ang tadhana’y sadyang nabingi.
The Last Moon Dance

Sa huling sandali na ika’y kapiling ko,
Ang salitang namutawi sa labi mo,
Mga bagay na nagbibigay sakin ng lakas,
Upang makalaya na ako sa wakas.
(Liwayway’s Lost Verse)

Madalas magising sa murahan nila,
Na daig pa ang ulan na walang tila,
Kapayapaan sayo’y nangungulila,
Tila naalayan na ng rosas na lila.

Hanggang kailan kaya sila ganito,
Hanggang ang isa ay sawa na sa mugto,
Bakas ng kahapon nagsisilbing multo,
Na ugat ng bawat ‘di pagkakasundo.

Hanggang kailan kaya kayang tiisin,
Lahat ng mga hinagpis at pasakit,
Na dulot ng walang hanggang away,
Kailan kaya sila maghihiwalay?
P.S. This poem is about a son asking his parents until when will the stay in a relationship full of pain and suffering.

I don't want to fit in a certain society,
Just to prove them I'm superior and mighty,
I enjoy no limits, no boundaries,
Away from rejections and worries.

I don't want to be judged,
By a fool's judgement,
I don't want to be rejected,
Like others you've collected.

I'll continue to be myself,
With a promise I'll be no helf,
I will not be rejected by you,
Because I'm not trying to.
P.S. I am not a rejection.
Mark Ipil Aug 2015
I am not nobody,
I am not somebody,
I am not no one,
But I'm someone.

Hey you, YES! I exist,
Even I'm not on your list,
I clearly occupy space,
In your mind full of maze.

Getting notice was tough,
YES! I had enough,
Pain, sorrow and being unloved,
By someone and be shoved.

I am not invisible,
I am clearly visible,
Just open your eyes,
And close all lies.
P.S. I am not invisible

Love is not staring at each other,
Love is looking at the same direction.
P.S. My first two liner poem, LOVE.
Mark Ipil Aug 2015
Can I still get that chance?,
To have you in a dance,
Under the stars in sky,
Where our hearts will fly.

Can I still get that one more?,
Even when you close your door,
Door straight through your heart,
Promise I’ll be back to the start.

Can I get one more chance?,
Back to zero, no advance,
I just want to fight for you,
Please do the same thing too.
P.S. ONE MORE CHANCE was inspired by the movie One More Chance.

Hindi ako naghahangad,
Sapagkat ako’y iyong alagad,
Sa pusong hindi mailakad,
Kailan kaya mamumukadkad.

Hindi pa rin makalilimot,
Sa iyong mga bangungot,
Tila’y kay hirap ang paglimot,
Sa istorya nating busangot.

Ako ma’y ‘di maalumana,
Sa tanging lugar na pinana,
Ni Kupidong madalas ay sablay,
Na tanging hanap ay tunay.
P.S. Hanggang ngayo'y panaghoy ko'y ikaw.
P.P.S. 2nd tagalog compo

Paulit-ulit na nagtatanong,
Palaging may binubulong,
Hanggang kailan ikukulong,
Huling sigaw ay tulong.

Puso’t isip ko’y nasasaktan,
Kailan kaya kita makakakamtan,
Kailan kaya ang tamang panahon,
Kung saan ang pagibig nati’y aahon.

Hanggang sa huli ay ikaw,
Sa mga sandaling ninakaw,
Sa piling mo aking giliw,
Oras nati’y walang maliw.
P.S. My very first tagalog poetry in hellopoetry, Sigaw ng Pagibig: Tulong!

Kaibigan, pinakamasakit na tinawag mo sa akin,
Na lubhang kumirot at tumusok sa damdamin,
Isang bagay na tumuldok  sa aking naisin,
Isang kirot at hapdi na kay hirap alisin.

Kaibigan, isang taong laging nandiyan,
Hindi ka iiwan o lalayuan kailanman,
Lahat ng sakit at luha mo’y maiintindihan,
Hindi ka matiis kahit mapunta  saanman.

Kaibigan, isang mapagpanggap na kaaway,
Na palagi sayo’y nakangiti’t kumakaway,
Ngunit sa iyong pagtalikod hanap ay away,
Iyong pagbagsak ay kanyang tagumpay.
P.S. Hindi lang tatlo ang lebel ng kaibigan. :D

I have story to be told,
I have passion to be bold,
The power may be old,
But the truth must unfold.

I don’t want you to tell,
The story of how I fell,
It’s my reality to sell,
No need for you to yell.

No matter what you say,
I’m always here to stay,
Let everything be gray,
Let me be the one to pay.

In the end of this long sail,
The curse must be sealed,
No one is allowed to feel,
The great power I conceal.
P.S. This is my curse.

I still remember that moment,
When you decided to call it an end,
The whole universe collapse,
The heartbeat inside me stops.

I still remember that day,
I hope your there and stay,
An escape from our reality,
In a place with zero visibility.
P.S. The day you said goodbye is dedicated to  a friend of mine who said goodbye last 24th of May 2014 in Baguio.

I still didn’t see it coming,
‘Cause my heart is still singing,
But this melody reaches the ending,
There is no reason to keep pretending.
P.S. Hope this is not THE END.
Mark Ipil Aug 2015
I don't regret being me,
Born as wild and free,
I don't regret being lonely,
And left my eyes teary.

Live like tomorrow isn't coming,
And yesterday isn't running,
For we can't change the past event,
We can't change what has been said.

I live with no regrets ,
Leave the past with no debt,
For simply, I live not impress,
But ultimately to express.
P.S. Things I don't regret

Sorry parents for losing everything,
I wish I was left with something,
Myself, my integrity and my dignity,
But I am no good for this society.

I am saying good bye with you all,
I wish you wouldn’t see me fall,
I wish you can see a smile on my face,
But it was all gone with no trace.

I’ve been a disappointment in my family,
For all my life I do things so rapidly,
Like I was about to run in darkness,
That makes me fell so hopeless.

Today, I’ll say my good bye,
To end this agony in my eye,
To finally end this miserable life,
With the help of a single knife.
P.S. THIS IS NOT A SUICIDAL NOTE PART 2.
Mark Ipil Aug 2015
I carry my pain all across my wrist,
No one wants to see me like this,
No one cares, but everyone knows,
That I’m just hiding all my lows.

I gave up a fight, not worthy of life,
But one day I woke up, still alive,
If sorrow and pain will ****, now I’m dead,
Looking at myself above there instead.

I came this far, not knowing why,
I’m still alive, all a lie,
Since day one I’m ill,
Surely, no big deal.

I know one day, I’ll be dead,
YES! It’s finally the end,
Where no people will wear red,
Good bye is my only end.
P.S. THIS IS NOT A SUICIDAL NOTE
Mark Ipil Aug 2015
I love you is not a question,
So I don’t need any answer,
I love you is not a suggestion,
So I don’t need any response.

I love you is not a promise,
So I don’t need any swear,
I love you is not a sentence,
So I don’t need any end.

One thing is for sure on my mind,
I love you is an answered prayer,
For it’s a confirmation above,
That I’m a human with heart.
P.S. I think I love you better now.
P.P.S. THIS WAS COMPOSED EARLY IN THIS MORNING.

— The End —
