An ever-winding road,
Breaking into distant stars.
A drift of milky white.
And the vast emptiness ahead.
Walking among the ancients;
Nothing touches the wall.
Hope, lost to the wind -
You'll be alright -
At least for now.

It's darkest before dawn.

A river's course, a water's flow,
Slow, then fast, never ceasing -
Time soothes, heals, lets you grow,
Warms you up, keeps you believing.

Another day it rips, it tears,
Soft yet vicious, teeth bared -
Draws blood, and lets out fears.

Time is less than a friend.

You’re so wonderful,
So far, yet I can see
I come to you so bashful,
But with a big glee.

Trying not to show,
The shyness inside me,
Though it’s making me throw,
A pillow and a party.

Seeing you feels nice,
So nice, my tongue won’t lie,
Feeling eerie in your eyes,
As I see you pass by.
Isagani, I will always be your #1 fan!

I am afraid,
Afraid of what will tomorrow bring.
I am afraid,
Afraid of wrong decisions.
I am afraid,
Very afraid, of losing you.

You define me,
You gave me a meaning,
You complete me,
You make me real.

Dreamy but true,
Ancient but new,
Tradition but modern,
It's me loving you.

What do I do?
If there's nothing I can do?
And I am just best in loving you?

Keep me in your arms,
Hold me as I fall,
Reach me when we part,
Love me.
I am afraid.
Have courage.

I used to run freely,
To paths familiar and new,
When I was the best I could be,
But then I saw a different view.

I used to be fearless,
For I was brave and courageous,
I’ve been so careless,
Then everything was dangerous.

I used to be noisy,
Not minding what others say,
But it always felt happy,
And I refused to stay.

I used to be me,
The best I could be.
Being alone makes me feel nostalgia and scared and sad...

After all the years,
You see the same sky,
You shed the same tears,
You never tire to try.

You memorized your living,
Keeping your track by the stream,
Staying at the road you’re following,
Then you’re burned-out of the mainstream.

You yonder away,
Away from your flow,
From home to astray,
Not to hurt but to grow.

You made yourself anew,
I am very proud of you.
Finally free...
