A land of false hopes and dreams A land where nothing is at it seems A place where people are blinded by the truth A place where you get tricked A place you'll be sick A place where you are lost A place where you are found Welcome to this great city A city that is hopeless A city that will rise A city where your heart sets ablaze A place where you'll get amazed A city where everything is bound to happen A city where you seek your purpose Manila, a city called Manila.
This poem is not to promote Manila. It is just to portray how I see mnl nowadays. No hate please, just a minor writer here :)
