Tayo'y muling inabot ng bukang-liwayway,
lumbay at pighati sa hangin natangay.
Ikaw ang tanging balakid ng kalungkutan,
kaharutan ng iba'y huwag pamarisan.

Sa musika ng buhay ay iindak,
sa langit dadalhin habang ika'y kahamagan.
Lahat ng walang kasiguraduhan, sayo magiging tiyak,
ikaw ang nag-iisang liwanag sa dagim na kalangitan.

I still remember how your hand
would fit perfectly in mine.
Like how the ocean would meet land.
Except, I was foolish.
Oppressed by guilt,
letting go was my only option.
In order for you to regain your happiness.
Seeing you now, I guess my initiative
was only befitting.

Because of you I hurt another
Who could have been my first true lover

So let's run away together,
Ready, set, on your mark,
With you by my side forever,
I'm no longer afraid of the dark.

I write this poem
Because I have a question
A question I have been wanting to ask you
From the day that I met you

We talked and talked
Shared songs
Spoke about jobs
Read poems
Talked about school

We spoke with each other
Through messages
So I never got to know your voice
Your way of talking

You might see where I am going
So I'll ask it directly
Will you meet me
Over a cup of coffee?
