i. he is a dancer,
he moves with such grace
he's spent his youth
dancing in front of mirrors,
he knows the way his body moves
as much as he is sure of himself

ii. he is starlight
he has seen the cosmos
and through his smile
he shares the wonders of the world
i could never see for myself

iii. he is a gentleman
he regards everyone sincerely
chivalrous in his beauty,
he walks with kindness
and acts with heart

iv. he is a storyteller
after his past of good and bad,
he is what he says
words stream from his mind
like rain drops on windows
he speaks with purpose
without ever intending to hurt anyone
but only wanting to love

v. he is my lionheart,
he braves the flashing lights
he does not mind being himself
raw and out in the open
he carries his books around
and can be silly without a care

vi. he is a wonder
shining among the chaos of his world,
and even king midas could not
conjure a heart as golden as his.

Ketal ya tu ahora?,
Y ya perde man etu dayun,
Ya promete tu cay jende tu cumigo ay deja,
pero donde ya tu ahora?
el promesas ya ulvida.

Era ay jende ya lang iyo cuntigo ya conose,
para el dolor de este amor
ay jende tanto vien duele para sinti,
Como cuando ay ya ama ya iyo cuntigo
amo pa tu ay sal'le y deja cumigo na ere,

Porque gaha etu ya sal'le na mi vida?
Cosa ba iyo ya hase?
por pavor manda sabe cay mas pa iyo na loco
por cuantos anyo cay kita ya man junto
y todo amor ay pwede iyo dale
ya oprese iyo para kita dos ay keda alegre.
por pavor manda sabe si donde iyo ya palta?
El mga vonito memorya etu ya dale
el amo ta sinti cumigo duele
cay todo aquel yos memorya,
amor y promesas
nuay valor y todo pamparonadas.
Donde ya tu ahora?

Perhaps, you're alot like I was,
Just doing your time and counting the days 'till what ever comes next,
But deep down,
You know there has to be more to life...
There has to be a higher calling.
Where will you turn??

I guess there are two kinds of people; The Sun and The Moon

The Sun kind of people are the ones who show the world how their presence is essential and inevitably crucial
While, The Moon kind of people are the ones who usually works behind the desk that their role is, no matter how significant, remain invisible

I guess there are two kinds of people; The Candles and The Matches

The Candles kind of people are the ones who would light up the others not minding how it could burn their own selves
While, The Matches kind of people are the ones who take advantages of everything for the sake of their own good without thinking it may harm and hurt the others

I guess there are two kinds of people; The Sunrise and The Sunset

The Sunrise kind of people are the the ones who meant to stay in our life, to finally prove that not everything is temporary, that sometimes people and things could last forever too
While, The Sunset kind of people are the ones who has always meant to teach us lessons from the very first place, but that doesn't make it less of them because a part of them will always exist on the darkest corner of our heart

Binibini, saakin
Iyong sabihin
Wag ma windang sambitin,
Mga luha sa 'yong mukha
Ito'y papawiin,
Binibini, wag ka nang umiyak,
Kakantahan nalang kita
Nang mga awiting
Sayo'y mag papangiti.
Binibini wag ka nang umiyak,
Mga luha sa iyong mukha,
Ito'y papawiin
Wag ka nang umiyak,
wag ka nang umiyak,
Wag ka nang umiyak..

Dahil ginusto **** igawa kita ng tula,
Tulad ng nararamdaman ko,
Igagawa kita ng tulang nananaghoy,
Tulad ng pag tangis ko sa gabi,
Igagawa kita ng tula,
Tulad ng mga rosas na pinitas ko sa hardin,
dahil wala akong mapag-alayan,
Bukod sa puso kong namatay na,
Igagawa kita ng tula na nahahapis,
Tulad ng pag daloy ng ulan saking mukha,
Dahil hindi mo hinayaang mahalin kita,
Ni hindi mo binigyan ng tsansa,
Kaya igagawa kita ng tulang banayad,
Banayad tulad ng nabasag na salamin,
Igagawa kita ng tula,
Tulad ng nag iisang bituwin na tinatabingan ng ulap... paalam na..
