Ace Antonio: Poems

Araw araw sa pag lubog ng araw
Hangin ay dumadampi sa iyong
Mga labing pala ngiti.

Hindi malaman kung saan titingin
Sa kalawakan, ang tanging hiling
Ay iyong lambing.

I Am.

Ace Antonio Oct 2018

I Am.

I am who I am today,
Including all the heartaches and pain.

I am who I am today,
Including me without you
Starting today.

Nag Iisang Tula

Ace Antonio Sep 2020

Nag Iisang Tula

Isang gabi
Isang ala-ala

Dalawang salita
Hindi alintana

Sa larawang nag paalam
Sa umagang nangingibabaw

Sa labi kong nanginginig
Sa iyong tinig na nag paalam

Ilang beses maghihintay
Sa tapat mo’ng salita

Sa bawat tingin
Di nag lalambing

Dalawang bwan’ tula
Sa gabi’y pinaubaya

Written 1/10/18

Naked

Ace Antonio Oct 2018

Naked

Undress me with your eyes
For my soul’s wanting to be naked
And yearns for your touch.

Undress me with your lips
For my body’s craving
All for your heavenly kisses to trace.

Undress me,
For I don’t mind the cold
All I want is your naked soul
And your honest words.

I’ve been writing poems during my free time at work and I am writing it on a post-it note since my giant notebook is not allowed on my station. This is post-it #1.

Numb

Ace Antonio Oct 2018

Numb

One step,

       One deep breath.

  I stare,

You wonder.

One step,

     One deep breath.

You stare,

I wonder.

I see those deep blue eyes,

All I am is numb.

Numb II

Ace Antonio Oct 2018

Numb II

I asked if you’re alright
You told me you were fine.

You asked if I’m alright
I told you, “I’ll be fine.”

Our eyes would meet
Leave me feeling deep.

No words, I am bothered
No words, I am shattered

Let me in!
Let me breathe!

No words, I am scarred
No words,
Once again,
I am numb.

Una

Ace Antonio Jan 2019

Una

Nasaan ka?
Sa bawat hakbang
Ika’y hinahanap.

Nasaan ka?
Sa bawat lingon
Ay ‘di masilayan.

Nasaan ka?
Sa bawat tingin
Sana’y makasama.

Nawawala
Nagwawala
Hanggang kailan
Ikay hanap hanap.

You

Ace Antonio Oct 2018

You

All the wonders of the world
That I don't know
I am glad that
It's you that I know.
