Nais kong ipatid
Ngunit hindi maihatid
Dahil ika’y manhid
Sa tuwing tumatagilid.

Tinatanong sa isipan
Ngunit ako’y nag-aalinlangan
Dapat bang hawakan
O ito’y pakawalan.

Sinasambit ng labi
Bawat salitang itinabi
Sa paraang pasintabi
Upang hindi madali.

Sumusulyap lang sa’yo
Tuwing ika'y nanunuyo
Upang hindi lumayo
Ang pagmamahalan niyo.

Nandito upang alalayan
Puso’t isipang naguguluhan
Tumabi’t ako’y sandalan
Dapatwat hindi pangmatagalan.

Nais kong malaman
Ano ang nilalaman
Ng pusong nakikipaglaban
Na walang kahahantungan.

WITCH
By: Jean Gutierrez

******* sorrounds us,
When you get to attach to them
They came up with freaking stories
Those rumors that can ruin your name.

And when you let it go deeper,
You’ll be played without knowing it
Those moments when you laugh
Will change into anger.

You’ll be hesitant to say a word,
Some of the letters were gone, missing
And when you hear the name or voice of it
Little by little your blood goes up.

Why are you here?
My hands crumpled and ready to punch
But I controlled it
Because it’s only a waste of time.

It started to that place
where chainsmokers lingers
liquors playing in every intestines
and songs that makes you sway.

We talk almost every night
from that moment our eyes met
we didn't even know how to start
but that was just part of talking to stranger.

This might be a start of something new
or maybe another part of growing up
and no matter how this ends
I will stay here, calmly listening.

Falling in love is unforgivable
it gives you heart attack
makes you feel complete
at the same time, incomplete.

Falling in love is staying
making yourself clingy
believing that it will lasts
though at some point, it hurts.

Falling in love is a sacrifice
you have to be strong,
to fight for your will
and to firmly stand when disaster comes.

Falling in love is cure
it will heal every broken heart,
makes you accept everything that happens
and letting you be free, and continue.

Life is full of excuses,
Breakable rules in the street,
Unacceptable reasons
and doubt in every step.

This things were build to lasts,
For us to learn how to wake up,
To move on in every pain
and to be happy for a minute.

We owe to love each other,
To survive and get rid of negative vibes,
Everything is cruel
but live the life you eager to have.

As I look into your eyes
I see sadness from within
I want to drift it away
cause I wanna see how bright it could be  

I know your happy now,
but I want to do something to make it happier
I wanna stare on every laugh you make
in every time you blush without noticing it

In every stories you wanted to unfold
I will listen little by little
because I wanna continuously hear your voice
without thinking that I might fall deeper

I wanna endure everything
no matter what will be the consequences
I'm willing to face it
without doubt

I wish I could tell you this things
but I'd rather be unspoken for now
until time is ripe
and till then, please don't hurt me.

I heard a story about love
it does conquers all,
how the beauty of it
tries to **** somebody.

They started to be a strangers
meeting with friends to friends
shake hands, a little glimpse of smile
and suddenly her name was known.

They were happy to hear stories
each pages were meaningful
and when someone get hurts
you were susceptible.

The tenure you were together laughing
and those memories that was so rigid
your determination on making on time
though you always omit failure.

Things goes up side down
I cried, I laugh, I feel anger at times
not because I don't give love
because I gave it to be destroyed, by you.

And now I see your widest smile
those shining shimmering eyes
while you are waiting on that isle
to whom I didn't know.

Then my tears slowly falls apart.

I'm having akward feeling
I want to talk to tell stories
I want to listen to be updated
I want to laugh to have fun
But i was here away from everyone

Out of the blue sky
in the peak of summer season
on my busy hours
we cross our path again.

I'm still the girl you met,
but there's a lot of things happened
and you are a little bit forgotten
or maybe not you, but the pain I felt.

It feels great to see how I've grown
with those heartaches that I endure,
those tears that made me paralyze
and the memories that I seize with you.

Maybe were not meant to be together
were just build to be friends
but thank you for the pain,
it made my heart stronger.

I wish I was her

Being spoiled,
Whenever she needed him
There he is
Holding her tight

I wish I was her

Being her guard,
Whenever she’s going to work
And going home
While holding her hand

I wish I was her

And I envy her so much
That tears were falling
And nothing in the world
I wish but to be her.

We pierce their hearts through words
with those combinations
we didn't even know
where it came from.

We make it to free ourselves,
to inspire readers,
to mend the broken pieces
and to bring back memories.

Yes, it wasn't easy
but as we go on
and continue writing
we start to build relationship.

We write poems
not to hurt you or feel anger
but for you to feel
that love does exist.

Maybe paradise stays only for a while then it will be drifted away by the calamity that might come.
No matter how tight the tree holds onto the ground it might fall down from its roots.
No matter how hard the rock is, it might turn into pieces once it was driven by the trailer truck.
And no matter how tough you are, time will come you'll feel dying , dying for all of the pain that keeps on stabbing you softly until you take your last breath and then stop.

I thought were getting closer
But everytime we talk
You were cold
You didn't say much
Did you even know how to listen

Why you're treating me like this
How could you just ignore all of it
When will be the time you'll realize that I was here
Where would that be
What should i do now.

Im torturing my helpless mind
I can't figure out the said response
As I go on to be with you
I started to sacrifice something in my life
That I thought I can't

Why you're making me feel this way
How could you not say anything
When will be that moment you'll say those words
Where would that be
What should i do then.

I just keep on pretending
That everything seems right
I complained but you said
Don't make things complicated
And then I stop.

Sometimes,
We shed tears for no reason
We feel sadness without explanation
We wake up in the middle of the night for nothing
And we fall in love unexpectedly.

You were simply beautiful
Your smile rules my heart and soul
As if it was sent only for me
But it was just part of my imagination

I adore you as if i loved you
I sent you letter that was gathered by my mind full of rainbow
And you accepted it
That i never expected

But now,
I see you turn into pieces
Like fragile box that was swallowed by the big waves
You love her but she loves somebody else
And it hurts me a lot to see you in pain.

I know your past. And I can't get to think that maybe you'll change like when the typhoon ruin everything and turns into a beautiful disaster. But this was just part of something that I keep on holding on while we were together. I keep on believing that one day when I wake up holding you I wish there wasn't anyone holding you too. This idea hurts me deeper and deeper every night. I don't want you to be with anyone else  but you leave me no choice and even though it hurts, I have to end this chapter and move on.

Sometimes affection

makes us expect for more.

Sometimes we let our love

hurt us the most.

Sometimes we already tell our genuine feelings

but they tend to ignore it,

Because towards those people

Even if you love them they will not do the same.

I wasn't thinking of anything
Only those arrhythmia beatings of my heart is the only sound I can hear
I can't barely look at you
Not even a glimpse
I don't know what would I feel.
But as I glance into your way
I see an impalpable warmth
That I really missed
It really hurts me a lot to see you now
With those smile that never changed
Your perfume that smells good
Those feeling when you touch me
Your beautiful voice as you sing
Everything stay as it is
But on the contrary
Every story has its end.

Of all the things made on earth
Pen and Paper were perfectly match.
The pen that has too many colors
and while the paper has too many pages.

When you were at the peak of wanting to write poem
this two things meet like when you met him
it suits very much that you can able to write the perfect words
to describe your happiness.

But while you continuously writing
you never figure out
that the paper were starting to get out of pages
and then you stop.

You wanted to crumple that piece of paper
and just overflow the ink from within
but the pen describe you
and those pages are the moments you made together.

Maybe it's time to finish it
to open new pages to write poems
to breath and think of new words
and to write again.

Every story has its history,
whether it happens yesterday or before you were standing at the peak of the mountain shouting out loud,
held up high and feeling the cold breeze that kisses you while your eyes were closed and enjoying the highest view your into.
But before that you were struggling,
that every step that your taking you might fall and turn into **** piece of dirt.
With scratches in your face and hands and down to your knees.
But there's nothing more painful when you were betrayed and left behind by the one whom you trusted by the most precious thing you could have, your heart.

Happiness are no longer happiness,
      they are sadness.
Excitement are no longer excitement,
      they are longing.
Traveling is no longer traveling,
      it is forgetting.
And heart is no longer heart,
      heart is gone.

When the music starts,
My heart is eager to hear your voice
It was beating so fast
Even though i might get hurt.

Those lyrics breaks every strangers heart
And your soulful voice says it all
But no matter how this might end,
Atleast I know from the start that I'm not dead inside.

I survive from the pain I've caused
but I'm thankful to be seize
with those memories
that I laugh with yours.

You are something
you talk like the others
but you are different
from within.

I love being with the memories while reminiscing
it feels like it just happen yesterday
you laugh and laugh
and continuously tell everything.

I can still barely remember the first  day I met you
you were quietly sleeping in peace
your cap halfly covered your face
and you were just sleeping all the way.

I wish it might be a never ending story
while you and I were together listening to the whispers of the air
seizing every moment
until the sunlight turns into moonlight
