Don't worry
leeannejjang Sep 2017
That night you confessed to me.
You said you like me.
I laughed at you 'cause I thought it was a joke.

Then I looked at you,
I saw pure sincerity in your eyes.
That's when it hit me,
Your feelings are real.

Vague as it may seems,
I can't explain to you how I feel.
I feel hot over my cheeks,
But cold on my feet.

I'm not good at handling Love.
Cause you know it crumbles away
When you hold it too tight.

I'm not used being with someone,
Cause I'm always left behind.

But you see my dear,
If time would reset and we go back to that moment,
I'd still love to hear your confession again.
I want you to be selfish again.

Don't worry 'bout me.
I'm happy that you like me.

The next day you said you'll wait for me,
Until my heart is ready.
Please don't wait for too long.
If you get tired you can let go.

Don't worry 'bout me.
I'm used being alone.

Believe me when I say this my old love,
You'll always have a special part in my heart.
It may not be the same as me to you.
But it's something I want to treasure as long as I can.

Isa
leeannejjang Sep 2017
Isa
Isang patak ng luha,
Para sa damdamin naguguluhan na.

Isang tingin sa mga tala,
Hiniling ang sagot sa Bathala.

Isang hingang malalim,
Dahil mundo  ko'y bigla nagdilim.

Isang tanong na narinig,
Paano ko sasagutin.

Alak
leeannejjang Sep 2017
Isang mapait na inumin sa gabing madilim.
Habang nagniningning ang tala gabing mahimbing.

Dahan dahang gumuguhit sa aking lalamunan ang init ng alak.
Kasabay ng pag-agos ng aking mga luha.

Handa
leeannejjang Sep 2017
Ilan taon na din ang nakaraan
Noong huli tayong nagmahalan.

Mga batang sabik magmahalan
Kahit ayaw ng magulang.

Naaalala ko yung mga lihim natin
Paghawak kamay sa silid aralan.

Mga tinginan kasing tamis ng candy.
Sulat na punong puno ng pagmamahalan.

Ngunit kung gaano kabilis ang atin pagmamahalan,
Ganoon din kabilis ang katapusan.

Ilang taon na din ang nagdaan,
Naaalala mo pa ba ang ating nakaraan?

Sa ating muling pagkikita,
Ang mga puso'y sugatan.

Takot magmahal dahil sa sugat na
Iniwan ng iba.

Handa na ba tayong suungin ang
Pag-iibigan naudlot?

Handa na ba tayong ipaglaban ang pagmamahalan ito?

Andito lang ako maghihintay sa sagot mo.
Sorry for the hugot. ♡

This time

This time my intentions are pure.
This time my feelings are true.
This time my heart is sure.

But, this time you're not here anymore.

Winter
leeannejjang Mar 2017
We silently intertwined our hands,
You from the south,
I'm from the north.

It's summer when we meet.
Were dasies sways with the wind.
You are me.
And I am you.

But, when winter came
You left like a blizzard.
All is left is nothingness.
Colors fade and turn to white.

1:45 AM
leeannejjang Sep 2015
I should be sleeping,
With soft sheets under my skin.
But my mind wanders,
To memories I can't let go.

It's exactly three months,
Since you left.
But the wound feel so fresh
Like it was  just yesterday.

I browse through my profile,
Jumping from albums to photos.
I realize most of it was you and I.

Hundreds of us together.
Smiling goofily at the camera.
We are so happy that I didnt see this moment coming.

Here I am remembering
What was gone.
Trying to hold something that was just a distant past.
Like pouring salt on my own cuts.

It's 1:45 AM.
I should be dreaming of something,
But I choose to dream of you and I.
A story that already ended.

I missed you.
But it seems my eyes are tired of crying for you.
Maybe its true,
Our heart never stops loving,
But it gets tired of waiting
And gets used to the emptiness inside.
That someone once a plays a big part,
Now an empty hole in my heart.

sea
leeannejjang Aug 2015
sea
I love the sea,
The waves as it hits the sand,
The calming effect of the blue waters.
The salty taste.

Then, I realize.
It taste like our tears.
Salty.

Is it because creatures live there
Also cry?

Reason
leeannejjang Jul 2015
For some reason you wanted to be alone,
For some reason you wanted to walk a little further,
For some reason you alight the train one stop earlier than your destination,
For some reason you pass a road you never seen,
For some reason your sweating a lot,
For some reason you are lost in deep thoughts,
For some reason you crave for someone's presence,
For some reason you keep asking  yourself "why" ,
But you can't figure it out.

To the man (cont...)
leeannejjang Jul 2015
Just like a leaf,
blown away by the wind.
everything I love about you,
is gone by a blink.

..where did my man go?
Replaced by a childish boy,
whinning every little bit in life.
An inconsiderate fool,
who care less about others.

...where did my love go?
Somewhere deep in you heart,
you buried a treasure I hold dear in my life.
The man I adore so much,
now trapped in a stone heart.

...how can I save you my dear?
when all you do is push me away.
I tried to climb up your walls,
but you made it higher for me to fall.

I still love you, yes I do.
But, I'm tired.
Tired of chasing after you,
when all you do is run and hide from me.

I'll just wait for you to comeback.
To look back and find me not there at your back.
I hope you wouldn't take so much time,
because my heart might forget,
as time eats our memories away,
all the beautiful things we created.
continuation of my other poem entitled to the man.

Para
leeannejjang Jul 2015
Para lang sa tabi,
Manong, ako'y may nakalimutan,
Pakitabi na lang sa tindahan ni aleng bebang.

Araw araw ikaw'y lagi sinusulyapan.
Sa likod mo ako'y lagi nagaabang.
Isang lingon mo lang araw ko'y nagkakakulay.

Isa kang bituin sa kalawakang walang ningning.
Komersyal sa tV na puro drama ang naririnig.
Hangin malamig sa tag-araw na sobrang init.

kaya para lang sa tabi,
Manong, ako'y may nakalimutan.
Pakitabi na lang sa tindhan ni aleng bebang.

"Iha, ano bang nakalimutan mo?" tanung ni Manong
"Puso ko po 'nong!" sagot ko.

Ako'y bumaba sa jeepney,
Tumakbo at ikaw ay hinanap,
Nakita ka ako'y bigla sumaya.

"Hoy, ikaw ibalik mo ang kinuha mo?" sabi ko.
Ngtaka at napakamot ka sa iyo ulo.
"Miss, nagkakamali ka ata." sagot mo habang ngumingiti sa akin.
"Paano ako magkakamali sa tao kumuha ng puso ko".

Ikaw'y ngumiti at ako'y nsilaw.
Doon ngsimula ang istorya natin dalawa,
na noon'y pinangarap-ngarap ko lamang.

I am
leeannejjang Jul 2015
I am a girl who aims something else,
I am a girl who goes somewhere else,
I am a girl doesn't want to be stop by anyone else,

I have flaws that are so visible,
Scars that are undeniable.
I've learned to love myself,
Without listening to your voices.

You can hurt me.
You can judge me.
You can pull me.
But you will always be a step behind me.
Like a shadow always aiming for the light to be seen.
And dies when darkness fall.

glass heart
leeannejjang Jul 2015
a heart is made up of muscles,
to pump blood and keep us alive.
But, why does it hurt when someone leave us?
'cause in our mind,
we made an imaginary heart.
Like cinderella's shoes made of glass.
When we try to fit someone inside,
who is not meant for that place
it gets broken.
thanks xj for the idea.

Bugs
leeannejjang Jul 2015
I bought a lot of lamps,
Rubbing them until a genie comes.
I bought a carpet,
Hoping it will fly away,
And bring me to Aladin.
But, nothing happens.
Its just me and the bugs that keeps biting me.
Well, at least this little creature,
Finds home while I'm in despair.

My Bed
leeannejjang Jun 2015
My bed was my bestfriend,
That's what I thought.
But, no. I am wrong.
It's laziness that's always with me,
Ever since I met my bed.
nothing to write. slacking at home with my bed.

From L; To Jk
leeannejjang Jun 2015
I was blinded by the word "Love".
Like entering a world full of sparks.
I remembered the time when they try to pull me out,
But I was to stubborn to stop.

I didn't listen to their advices,
I never gave any second glance.
I offered my heart,
As a ticket to a place I thought would last.

One day, everything shattered in front of me.
I tried to fix things but never succeed.
I plead to give me a seconde chance,
But was not granted.

I was like a child being thrown out of a house,
Looking for a place to hide,
When the storm arrive.

I cried in the corner,
Waiting for him to rescue me.
But he never did.

I walk.
I run.
But then, this time they pulled me again,
Back to the reality I thought I will never see again.

They saved me from the depths of the dark hole I created for myself.
Slowly, I'm trying to fix myself,
patching up the fragments left broken somewhere.
Thank you to my good friends JK. and all those who gave me their unending support. Ill be back to who I am. Just wait for me.

His Name
leeannejjang Jun 2015
Painted in my life,
Always in my heart,
Unable to forget my
Love for you will always remain.

Gone in the wind,
Acted like nobody cares.
Because you left me alone,
Reality slowly pops me like a balloon.
I never thought you would leave like this
Even the wind didn't feel,
Like a ghost that never exist.

Hoping someday I can smile,
Out of this black hole I hide.
Forgetting about the past,
Ending  a story that can never last,
Risking everything I have.

Synonyms
leeannejjang Jun 2015
Giving up?
Its not actually included in my vocabulary.
Until you suddenly push me on a cliff.
I hang on.
Waiting for you to pull me up.
But you just look at me from above.
You were crying.
Whispering something I can't hear.
Yet as I look into you lips.
I read the words you want to say.
"Let me go. Move on."
That's when "giving up" became a part of my life and those words and you would always be synonyms in my life.

What if we became a little honest?
Would it be different?

What if we never let go?
Can we be happy?

All those what ifs, will remain in the past.
All the answers will be left hanging.

Meow

Like a cat,
I want to sleep all day,
On a soft sheet,
with you rubbing my back.

Like a cat,
I will call you with my sweet "meows",
When I feel sad.

Like a cat,
I want you to hear me purring on your ears,
That will send chills down your spine.

Like a cat,
I want to snuggle beside you,
When you are sleeping on a sofa.

Like a cat,
Please fogive me when I hurt you with my claws.
I just want to hold you near me.

Like a cat,
I may look like I don't care,
But I do understand you,
Every little bit of what you say.

Like a cat,
If you don't want me anymore,
Please don't throw me away.
Because your all that I have.

Today

Today, you left me again.
Alone in this dusty roads.
You know how much I want to cry?
That the very person I wanna be with,
Doesn't care for me a bit.

Today, I realize I am not your priority.
When you are always on my top list.
I waited for you to call my name,
But you never did.

Today, I was so hurt.
That I just want to runaway from you.
From all the memories with you.
Because everytime I think you of I'm slowy fading away.


Today, I want to say to you "I really wanted to hate you, but I love you."
Ps. PGH, I think I need to forget that I love you or else I will drown myself and never get back.

Fragile
leeannejjang Jun 2015
There's no greater pain,
than tryingto mend what was broken.
You may put it back toegter,
but it will never be the same.

I once caught myself,
Staring at the person who broke me to pieces.
I wonder why he never tried to put me back together,
But then, every ounce of me long for him.

I fall ******* the ground,
That every bits of me shattered.
I pick up the pieces slowly,
But I still ended up hurting myself with my own fragments.

Because loving someone is letting yourself be fragile.
Either to be loved or to be broken.

MRT
leeannejjang Jun 2015
MRT
"Isang stored card po."
Sabay abot ng 100piso.
Pinasok sa makina "toot".
Bumaba sa hagdan.
"Hay, nakakpagod."
Nakita ang mahabang pila ng mga taong nagaantay.
Napa-buntong hininga.
5...10...15minuto wala pa din.
Ako'y lumingon sa kanan't kaliwa.
Inobserbahan ang mga taong iritable na sa pagaantay.

Sa kaliwa, nakita ko ang isang lalaki,
Postura, nakasalamin at kagalang galang ang suot.
Mukha nagtatrabaho sa isang malakingkumapanya at may mataas na posisyon.
Abala sa pagtingin sa relos na rolex ang tatak.
Ako'y napatanong sa sarili ko,
"bakit niya mas piniling pumila dito kung saan malulukot ang suot na barong?"

Sa kanan naman ay isang studyanteng binata,
Naka-uniporme, maangas ang dating.
May naksaksak na earphones sa magkabilang tenga at sumasabay ang indak ng mga paa.
Nais ko sana makihati sa musikang kanya naririnig.

Sa likod ko ay isang babae,
Napapamura na sa inis.
Mukhang malalate na sa opisina.
Naka-make up at nakheels.
Gusto ko siya bulangan,
"Ate, kalma lang. Hindi mapapabilis ng pagmumura mo ang pagdating nian."

At sa wakas dumating na,
Ang hinihintay ng lahat.
Inihanda ko na ang sarili,
dahil sigurado ako ay maitutulak, masisiksik,
matatapakan at masisiko sa loob ng train ng MRT.

Bulalakaw
leeannejjang Jun 2015
Parang  alaala na ang sarap balikan,
Lumipas man ang mga sandali sana'y ikaw andyan.
Isang araw ako'y nakakita
Ng bulalakaw sa kalangitan,
Pumikit. Humiling.
Na sana bigyan ako ng pagkakataon ikaw ay makapiling.

Tayo  daw ay nagkakilala sa maling panahon,
Ngunit kailan ba naging mali ang pagibig na totoo?

Sana tayo'y pagbigyan ni inang tadhana,
Tatlo, dalawa o kahit isang araw lang,
Maparamdam ko lang na ikaw...
Oo, ikaw na nga at wala ng iba ang sinisigaw ng puso ko sinta.

Maglalakad ako ng nakuluhod,
Kahit pa saan sulok,
Marinig lang ang dasal ko na maging tayo.
Kahit kidlat man yan o bagyo ay susuungin ko,
Para lang sa iyo.

Kaya sana samahan mo ako,
Hawakan ang mga kama'y ko,
Pangako sa'yo hindi ko bibitawan ito.
Dahil alam ko at ng puso ko,
Na tayo sa habang panahon.

Ngunit tulad ng bulalakaw nung araw na iyon,
Ikaw'y naglaho kasama ng pangako,
Ako'y binitawan sa gitna ng bagyo.
Ngayon isa ka na lang alaala sa buhay ko
na dati ay umiikot sa iyo.

Candies
leeannejjang Jun 2015
They're like candies,
Sold on the streets,
With different flavors,
You will surely love.

Sweet like a cotton candy,
My friend you make my day,
With a smile away.

Sometimes I want to hit you in the head,
Because your like a jaw breaker
That don't want to bend.

I really hate that bitter taste,
Like your face when your wasted,
I told you its non sense
But you keep making that mistake.

That sour flavor makes my eyes tear,
Like when I need you and your not there.
Don't worry I will forgive you over and over,
For I believe in forever.

I want to keep this candies in my mouth,
But they melt so easily without a doubt.
I thank God, I met a friend like you,
At least I will never run out of candies because they are as sweet as you.
I love my friends <3

Parang ulan na pumapatak,
Mga luha sa iyong mata'y tagaktak,
Gusto ko man itong punasan,
Dahil ikaw ay sinaktan,
Sa taong pinili mo,
Akala mo'y hindi ka iiwan.

Minsan ikaw'y lumapit sa akin,
Tinanong kung anong tingin,
Sa babae sa malayo nakaupo,
Na tila diwata sa iyong puso.

Pinilit ko ngumiti,
Tinago ng pilit,
Mga luha nagbabantang mahulog,
Dahil ang puso ko'y nadurog.

Umaasa isang araw ako'y masilayan,
Kahit kaunti sulyap lang ako'y maliligahayan,
Ngunit tila totoo nga,
Ang sinabi ng matatanda,
"Kung para sa'yo iha, ito'y kusang lalapit."

Kaya ngyon akin mahal,
Ikaw'y aking iiwan,
Pupunta sa kawalan,
Kung saan ang puso ko'y doon daan,
Para mahanap ang tunay na ligaya,
Sa piling ng iba.

To the man

If you see me with somebody else,
Would you care?
If you see me holding other guy's hand,
Would you get jealous?
If you see me happy with someone else,
Would you get hurt?
If you see me kissing a different lips,
Would you get angry?

I asked all those questions to myself,
All my answers are Yes.
And if by chance you said No,
Then, I think its time to say Good bye,
To the man I thought you are.

Portrait of you
leeannejjang Jun 2015
A blank canvas in front of us,
An image of you with colors black and white.
As you walk along the path,
You will encounter different people that will add colors to your life.

Some would paint you yellow,
Like a sun beaming with a smile.
They will bring you warmth that you will never forget.

Blue like the ocean will come in your way,
A feeling of comfort and sense of calmness,
They will greet you with a wave that will hit you but would never hurt you.

Sometimes there will be gray that would cross your path.
Loneliness and sadness comes with them.
They are those who lost their way while trying to fill up the canvas of life.

Pink blooming like a flower on a field.
They best fit with things that glitter and spark.
You would see happiness in their eyes,
And wanted to keep them by your side.

An image of a strong and dependable man forms in my mind when I saw Brown.
Like earth I can stand, they will never let you down.

Green green grass dancing in the wind.
A suitable partner when your in need,
Someone to cry on and would never leave,
A true friend during thick or thin.


No, they will never let you get hurt,
Violets are like knights who never fails.
Tough like a wall but with a heart as soft as a foam.

My favorite color of all? Red.
A color that makes life such an interesting work of an art.
You may see Red in a different way.
Red, like a lover that left us.
Red, like the husband we pledge our love.
Red, for my first love.
Red, for the man I can never have.
Red, for the unconditional love of a mother.
Red, for the person I want to spend the rest of my life.

All this colors,
Once painted on the canvas of life,
Creates a beautiful portrait of you,
That nobody else can have.

Salita
leeannejjang Jun 2015
Minahal,
Pinaasa,
Binitiwan,
Tinulak,
Bumalik,
Hinabol,
Nahulog,
Nasaktan,
Iniwan.

Mga salitang tinuro sa atin noong kabataan,
Ngayon mga salitang atin iniiwasan.
Minsan ako'y magtatanong,

Anong pagkukulang ko?
Bakit iniwan mo ako?
Saan ako nagkamali?
Paano ko maibabalik?

Hinihintay ko mula sa iyo,
Sabihin **** "Nagkamali ako",
Pero ang nakita ko'y mga luha mo,
Hinihingi ang pagpapatawad ko.

Sana hindi na lang,
Sana wala na lang,
Sana umiwas na lang,
Mga sana na hindi ko pinakinggan,
Ngayon ako'y luhaan.

Pero isang bagay ang hindi ko pinagsisihan,
Ang mga masasayang bagay na ating pinagasamahan,
Mananatili sa puso ko na parang mga litrato,
Lumain man ng panahon ay babalik balikan ko.

Pinasaya,
Pinakilig,
Pinatawa,
Pinangiti.
