I don't care what people think. They can talk funny about that and leave.
I know you don't want to fall in love or you don't let yourself to.
Or maybe I'm not the right one for you, and you don't feel the same as I do.
Love can be tricky, you know.
Anyway, this is not a love letter. So I won't tell you about how you actually did make outer space collides in my eyes when I met you and  the butterflies in my tummy dance when you looked at me. And how you made my heart stop beating for a few second when you smiled. No, I won't tell you stuff like that.
But anyway, you actually did those things to me but I won't tell you about it. I swear I never do that.
I want you to know it by yourself, without people telling you and without me trying to confess.
You have to find it alone.
I know maybe you guys catch it as a part of cheesy things.
But it's true.
It truly works and is based on a true story.

"I seem to recall a world where people weren't such a-holes all the time, but maybe I'm just paying more attention" ~ quote by some guy smoking a cigarette outside of a restaurant
Allan Pangilinan Dec 2015
We might be known for our glorified past,
How we went out and played real games outside.
And then time just flew so fast,
There are a lot of things, now, we can’t ride.

We grew up knowing society had rules.
TV said to study, go to college, and live happily.
But what unfolded before us is kinda rude,
A painful slap of some dose of a new bossoming reality.

As every generation may argue,
Ours may claim to be really confused.
Memories of bike rides and skies of different hues,
Rapidly changed by virtual abuse.

We still try to live authentic though,
Thinking wishfully that we can escape the Net.
Go to places, do things, go back and forth,
Brushing off every little regret.

But who’re we actually fooling?
The Net is inescapable,
Lose interconnectedness and you’ll cease existing,
A feeling that is plain horrible.

We’ll figure this out someday,
That’s what we tell ourselves,
But as we live each day,
We acknowledge that a little help wouldn’t hurt.

I was born with a baseball bat
in hand. I had walk-mans and dreams.
I had "Let's go to college"
I had "Shoot for the moon."
If I could travel back,
and tell that kid what to do.
I'd say
"You wouldn't believe
the revolution coming for you. "
"Run. Get away. You'll never be free."
"There's nowhere to hide from these blinking lights
and these screens."
"Cherish your days of Summer in the grass.
Cherish those boring Monopoly nights."
"Technology is everywhere
And the Kid's Aren't Alright."

I've fallen in love with 90's cinema
Where movies looked real and not too HD
The nostalgia of being taken back to that time
Is more then divine
scenes were not CGI
and the make up was not over the top
the message uncensored  
whether offensive or not the movie won't stop
and you see the times how they've changed from uncompromising film making to watered down plots with only stunts to amaze
From reflecting after a movie to not thinking at all
I'm just reflecting that's all
Movies from the 90'***** me they don't feel like movies they speak to me in a different way then the movies today and just older movies in general It's just so different now

She stands to pass the test,
With a brand new vhs,
In new York, in new York,
I don't know what I could do,
But to be right next to you,
In new York , in new York,

I could possibly put her in the first lane of my mind set as I swerve,
Trailed down with minor regrets I did later,
Love you deserve,
Turtlenecks itching my skin,
Foot on the gas,
Too much caffeine In my system just to let her pass,
She didn't fail the test , so its only temporary that she ....

.....stands to pass the test,
With a brand new vhs,
In new York, in new York,
I don't know what I could do,
But to be right next to you,
In new York , in new York.
Now I'm driving ....

i would take the first train back to the 90's,
when my lungs were nicotine-free
and there was always something worthy on TV.

i would wear my chucks in bed,
and have cereals for dinner.

i would not have heard of ****,
i would have used the internet to find
the exact words to the songs on Nevermind,
because cassette inlays haven't got enough
space for Kurt's lyrics.

and if i were you, i wouldn't call this a poem.

For my Soulmate

I
I saw the best minds of my generation go to waste
I saw the worst minds obsess over awful taste
I walked a steady path and staggered through some mud
I soared through skies so bright, my eyes were useless studs

II
You viewed the same madness that spewed from my pen
You walked the path of enlightenment and gorgeous Zen
You mastered what all the useless fools never could
You comprehended what they never understood

III
We rise, only as one, but the stragglers keep us down
We never worry much, because a king is just a crown
We march to the drum of freedom, with paper on our tongues
We are the 90’s generation, the wise among the young
In my English Counterculture Class, we were assigned to write a prompt according to Allen Ginsberg's poem: HOWL
