Defeat  your future self.
Respond rather than react.
Take it one step at a time.
Aim for zero pending,
or just be present, show up,
especially for yourself!
You will make it happen.
This is my daily reminder for myself
An affirmation in away
Promise of July
I got this.

Nearing another end
I still waited
Patiently but in denial
I let myself be distracted
Confused myself more
What am I even longing for
A version of you?
The person you were
The one you would become
You at this moment
See, this is our month
Where our beginnings took place
But the cycle has come to an end now
Don't you think?
All other months are haunted
I don't care, June is ours
I haven't let you meet them properly
That time in January
It wasn't ours, I'm sorry

you have taken a lot of my energy
little by little, day by day
not that i didn't notice
it's for you to take

energy though
as we all know
can never be created
nor destroyed

i am running out
you see
so you might want
to give some back

to fill the void that is
slowly closing anyway
i don't need it
but i sure am want it

just give it time and
make it more bearable
for me, who loved you,
so dearly

ayoko ng naghihintay
ayoko ng hinahabol
magkasundo naman tayo
bigyan ng pagkakataon

Sobrang hirap simulan
Kay dali naman iwanan
Nasaan ba ang bakit
Hahanapin saglit

Sinasabi ko
Hindi ako tatayo,
Hanggat 'di ko 'to natatapos
Kaya ko na to

I’m the Tardy one
I was often even called Miss T.
Things could’ve been better
If I wake up earlier
Maybe they’d talk to me over breakfast
And know me
Maybe I would learn how to take my time
And not decide to quit
Every time I think I ran out of time.
