#torpe
have you once
thought about
whether or not
moths ever feel
afraid
of getting burned
by the light
they always
and forever
long to chase?
don't you think
they stop
for even a second
to deliberate
about it?
or maybe
to them
and their short life
it was worth it?
hey,
did you consider
that maybe
it's why the have
such short lifespans?
perhaps in the lenses of
miniscule eyes
of ephemeral dismal colors
in this infinite world
the warmth
of flames
are all they live for?
i don't know...
maybe that's why
we humans live longer?
we,
or at least some of us
have the mind enough
to say that
"this is the
"closest"
"i'll ever be'
"to the sun"
before we all turn into ashes.

papano ba mapaparating ang nararamdaman?
kaya ko bang sasabihin saiyo ng harapan?
kung meron lang sana akong lakas ng loob
sa tamang hinala ng maling kutob
bakit sayo lang nagkaganito
sa bituwing tunay na may ganda
bakit sayo, tuluyang nagbago
may paghanga, meron ding pangamba
sinta, di ko sinasadya
may kusa itong paghanga
tadhana ang nagbadya
kaya wala akong magagawa
kung sana kaya kong umilag
kung sana di ako nalalaglag
kung sana kaya kung pumalag
kung sana ang puso di takot mabasag
paano ka ba makikilala
kung di ko kayang lumapit
saan ba to mapupunta
hangarin kailan ba makakamit
marahil masaya na sana ako na aking madinig
matamis na sagot ng malambing **** tinig
ano bang gagawin, di makalapit at di makalalayo
papano kakausapin,kung di masambit ang nais ng puso
sana bigyan ng tapang, ipadama ang pagsuyo
dahil itong naaramdaman di ko kayang isuko
hawakan mo aking mga kamay
dito sa gitna ng yakap humimlay
wag nang malumbay,pangako ko habang buhay
sayo lang iaalay ang pagibig kong tunay
hayaan nating mga mata'y makiusap
sa mga titig **** nakikihiram ng kislap
bakit dito, kung saan ako nakatinag
larawan mo ang bukod tanging lumiliwanag
tulad ka ng rosas sa pula ng labi
tulad ka ng anghel sadyang nakakabighani
sa mahabang buhok, kutis **** malambot, at tamis ng yong ngiti
wala kang katulad, anyong namumukudtangi
nilalang na tulad mo BIYAYA kang mamahalin
sa hamak na tulad ko SUMPA kitang iibigin
oh Nadine, meron pa akong dapat na hiling
kung dinig na ng diyos ang aking panalangin
oh Nadine, bulaklak ka sa hardin
wag mo sanang hayaan ako'y hanggan tingin
na sana'y pakinggan ang aking hinaing
pagkat di ko kayang mabuhay ng wala ka sa akin

Mga paningin nating laging nagkaka-bunggo,
pilit man itong pigilin kusa pa ring nag-tatagpo
ginagala ang mata sa bawat sulok ng kwadro,
upang ito ay itago ngunit sayo pa rin sa huli dumadapo.
Bilanggo ang aking mga salita
gawa ng paralisado kong dila
tuwing ikaw ay malapitan kong nakikita.
Bibig ko ay mga matang malaya
upang mangusap at mag-pahayag ng mga
salitang di ko kayang masambitla
sa tuwing mata nati'y nag-kakabangga,
nag-hihimutok ang damdamin kong nag-babaga.

staring at a window
a distance of
two inches away
the world outside
falling...
piece
by
piece
by
piece
buys
pieces
buys
peace
by
pieces
it
pierces
please------
all i have
in silence
in hushes
your flushes
pierces...
one
two
three
then your smile,
all that is left...
no longer pleases...
like puzzles
they scattered
all in pieces
so hard to place together
yet so **** hard to supress
i hate it.
if she loves me
yet she
loves me not
can't seem to fit.
i place in
all the moments
one by one
bit by bit
altogether
infinitely
tirelessly
in repeat.
every single smile
serene in capture
even the tone
of her song
caught in record
every flicker of her hair in my mind
just like a screenshot
and even the blink
of her eyes
each individual dot...
she loves me?
she loves me not?
the flashes
in and out
staring at the window
only two inches away...
listening closely------
she loves me?
or she loves me not?
the outside world
like a breathtaking blossom
bald of petals...
falling
piece
by
piece.

it's like
most of the time,
it's her chat head
that's staring
glaring at me
in my screen
yet it feels like
most of the time,
backspace
was the only button
i've always
been pressing.

torpe ako kagaya ng iba
hindi ako kagaya ng iba na makakapal ang mukha
na puro lang salita
matatamis na salita
sa umpisa lang palagawa
puro lang dada pero pag dating sa dulo iiwanan kadin naman pala

3.14 is the value of pi
Semicircle is the shape of a smile
8 is the symbol for infinity
Welcome to quantumly formed poetry.
Expressing my thoughts through cryptic theory
End of reversed evolutionary
It might not be self-explanatory
JUST Keeping It Short and Simple, M, E.
C, L, O, U, D, plus the square of three
is all that I feel when you are with Mi
Fa, So, La, Ti, Do, Re... or I mean me
Like M, A, G, I see... my world on thee.
You are my earth that is a twisted heart
I dream to be the he beside that art
Giving his best to be a romantic
Intimating through the fields of physics.
My love for you is three-dimensional
Taller and longer than diagonals
As deep as abyss, like cosmos so wide
but unbound by space and unchanged by time.
A fire started by a Maxwell's demon
Burning and shining from here to the moon
A flame so lunar and so lunatic
breaking the laws of thermodynamics.
Faring the distance at the speed of light
Lining the night skies like a meteorite
Traversing the widths of the hyperspace
Or cross a black hole just to see your face.
Escape with luck from a magnetic flux
Be right thrice a day with a broken clock
Above all that, there's just one thing I want:
To spend my last breath by holding your hand.

Hindi ko alam kung ano ang aking gagawin.
Pilit ko pa rin iniisip na meron kang gusto sa akin.
Ewan ko ba kung bakit ako nag gaganito.
Dahil sa aking nararamdaman ako'y litong-lito.
Ano pa ba ang aking dapat gawin para masabi
Itong lihim na pagtingin ko kung may pagkakataon ikaw ay aking makatabi
Hindi mo ba alam na ang aking puso tumitibok para lang sayo.
Kaya ngayon ako'y nanghihina ng loob kung patuloy kang lumalayo.
Dinadaan ko na lang ito sa tula para mabasa mo
Kahit mabasa mo ito huwag kang titigil maging kaibigan ko
Sana'y rin ako maging masaya at malungkot sa piling mo
Kaya sana huwag kang makakalimot sa babae na ito.

Every morning, getting out of bed is the worst,
But every morning my phone vibrates.
And it's because
Everyday you message me
Like it has been your daily routine
To impress me, to make me laugh
To show me what a true friend you are,
But to me, you're more than just a friend,
You're the one I love, you're the one I want to waste time with
You're the one that makes want to get out of bed and be productive.
But I can't let you see it,
Because someone else loves you,
And the one that loves you is my friend too.
He kept on talking about you, made so much effort just for you,
Almost got in trouble just to be with you.
And me? What did I even do to deserve you?
But make you smile.
Still, you find time to message me, call me, and tease me.
You're my friend, NO! you're more than just my friend
You're the one I love, and I just want you to be happy.

Nakaw-Tingin
Nang masilayan ka,
Buhay ko ay sumigla.
Nang makilala ka,
Ngiti ko'y kakaiba.
Nang ika'y dumaan,
Sa aking harapan,
Ako'y nag-alinlangan,
Kung ika'y ngingitian.
Hindi ko maiwasan,
Na ika'y hangaan.
Sa iyong kagandahan,
Nagkakagusto ang kalalakihan.
Laman ka ng isipan,
Mukha mo'y napapanaginipan,
Sarili ko'y di maintindihan,
Damdamin ko'y naguguluhan.
Tinangka kitang lapitan,
Upang iyong malaman,
Na kita'y hinahangaan,
Gustong maging kaibigan.
Nang tayo'y magkaharap,
Wala akong mahagilap,
Hindi ko mahanap-hanap,
Ang salitang pangarap.
Nalimutan ko ang katapangan,
Naduwag ang aking kalooban,
Hindi ko na napanindigan,
Ang mga salitang binitawan.
Torpe na kung tawagin,
Kahit na ito'y nakaw-tingin,
Sa malayo ika'y napapansin,
Ako'y nagpapasalamat pa rin.

Yan ang tawag sa mga lalaking nahihiya,kinakabahan, parang basang pusa,nangingig pag nakikita yung babaeng crush nila hahaha nakakatawa diba?
Natatawa ako pero torpe din ako
Yung tipong
di makapag salita
mukhang tanga
naiihi
kinakabahan
pag nasasalubong ko si crush
Kaming mga torpe totoo mag mahal
Di lang namin alam kung pano namin to sasabihin
Di lang namain alam kung paano dumiskarte ng tama
Yung sakto
Yung walang halong kaba
Yung alam naming hindi papalya yung plano
Pero sa sobrang torpe ko nauhan ako ng iba
Naunahan ako ng iba na makuha ka
Naunahan ako ng iba na ligawan ka
Naunahan ako ng iba na sabihin sayo yung nararamdaman ko
Naiinis ako sa sarili ko
Naiinis ako sa sarili ko kasi napaka torpe ko
Sasabihin ko lang sayo yung nararamdam ko pero di ko magawa
Natatakot akong sabihin sayo kasi baka layuan mo ako
Nag iisip ako ng paraan kung paano ko sasabihin sayo
Sa sobrang kakaisip ko naunahan na pala ako ng iba
Sa sobrang torpe ko naunahan na ako ng iba
Sa sobrang torpe ko nawalan na ako ng pag asa
Lalo na may mahal ka na at may naka hawak na sa puso mo
Putangina ang T O R P E ko
