melancholy
is the world's biggest power,
being itself powerless.

Love is a social construct,
An empty train to conduct,
A missile set to self-destruct,
A faint light, by trees, obstruct.

A forest of unknowing,
Lies are of the showing,
In the trees, blowing,
A struggle is ongoing.

It will be the end,
All made up, pretend,
No way to defend,
No longer a friend.

Causing you strife,
Haunting your life,
Were husband and wife,
Now a blunt knife.

Useless, neglected,
*****, infected,
All memories collected,
No longer respected.

Life isn't simplified,
This relation long has died,
Told and forced to take a side,
No rules left to abide.

Slashed and yelled to go away,
Waiting like a sitting prey,
Filled of an emotional buffet,
Soon to become a vicious fray.

This surely can't be right,
Wasn't supposed to cause a fight,
Grasping for thin rays of light,
In the darkness of the night.

Impossible to find,
They say love is blind,
But I was defined,
By a tightly closed mind.

They said this was our time ahead,
Chose not to listen to what they said,
I was fatefully filled with dread,
On the floor, my soul had bled.

They have nothing left to say,
No one there for my dismay,
Just needing someone to come stay,
I'm left, lodged in this cliche.

Only destruction in its wake,
Love isn't blind, but love is fake,
Nothing to give, just wanting to take,
Until it drives you to finally break.

Love is a social construct,
An empty train to conduct,
A missile set to self-destruct,
A faint light, by trees, obstruct.

and please be careful when you say that it was over
I will not come back when you say that you miss me
I will not come thru when you beg me to save you
I will not go to places that will remind me of you
this is a part of a song I've written.

It all starts with I want to
Like
I want to gather myself
Even if it is parted into many pieces
I want to see myself
Ceasing the fire that is fed by insecurities
I want to be better
At being myself, not to be somebody else
I want to be that good daughter,
Even if I think I'm not that smart
I want to find peace and live it
Even it is too chaotic to start right now
I want to gather myself
And build all of these

It all starts with I want to
And I wanna end this with I will.
c'mon self, we have a battle to win.

How far can our minds could take us?
Mine brought me in a place so full of you
Where there exists so many figures and I'm almost lost
Little did I know that an idealist mind can break itself too

I came to crossover between the red lines and see you
I thought of salvation, but oh, it seems to be danger
Either a made up one or maybe an existing one
I don't know, I'm still searching for answers in your words

Having the urge to feel so I would know that it's real
Because I couldn't trust my reckless mind anymore
It could be the most treacherous thing in the world
I want reassurance when troubles feel at home in me

I can hate my life forever
But still love one part of it
And that is you
Ily.

Mga kantang nagpapaalala ng kasaysayan ng ating pagmamahalan;
Prosa at tulang ikaw at kwento nating dalawa ang nag-iisang paksa;
Ang pait at sakit sa bawat pagsambit na ‘di ka na muling manunumbalik;
Luhang nagmistulang mga talon hanggang sa natuyo na lang paglipas ng panahon;
Bawat araw na lumilipas ay naiipon na lang tulad ng mga pangako ng kahapon
At nang dumating ang araw nagpasiya kang bumalik; hindi na maramdaman ang sabik
Tuluyang napagod na at namanhid sa sitwasyon; hindi na ako muling aasa
Na masimulang muli ang istoyang ikaw mismo ang nagpasyang ito ay wakasan.

pilit at pilit na sinusupil
ang karasahan na kumikitil ng buhay
ng mga taong na wala namang kasalanan
ngunit tuloy pa ring pinagdidiinan
hindi dapat tayo masanay na ang trato sa bawat isa'y 'di pantay-pantay
lahat tayo ay may karapatan at dapat lang na ito ay ating ipaglaban
lalo na sa panahon ngayon na kung saan
ang hustisya'y para na lang sa iilan
imbis na paglingkuran ang samabayanan,
kinukurap ang mga pera sa kaban
ng mamayang dugo't pawis ang inilaan
nagmimistulang mga mang-mang sapagkat wala silang kaalam-alam
na ang kanilang panginoong pinaglilingkuran
ang siyang kumakamkam sa kanilang mga pinaghirapan
Inang Bayan, kailan kaya makakamtan ang kalayaang inaasam?
