Ating tula
Sheena Garao May 2020
Ang bawat simula na syang aking pilit na binabalikan
Ang araw at kaganapan na kung saan tayo unang nagkabanggaan
Mukha **** puno ng pag-aalala na tila isang larawan- kay hirap nitong ipinta
Ang iyong tinig na Kay sarap sa tenga
Ang mga ngiti na ayaw na mawaglit sa akong isipan
O baka naman ang iyong pabangong akin parin natatandaan
Alin nga ba sa mga iyon?
Tila lahat ng mga ito'y kay hirap kalimutan
Ang mga tawanan sa mga sumunod pang mga kaganapan
Ang mga pinag-uusapan sa lugar na nagsilbi narin naging tagpuan
Kay sayang balikan ang mga ala-alang nais ko nang kalimutan
Mga ala-alang kay saya sa umpisa na sya ring nagdulot ng matindin agos nitong mga luha
Sa mga gabing tila ayaw akong palayain mula sa rehas ng mga ala-ala
Ang syang dahilan ng mga nagmumugtong mga mata
Kaytamis pakinggan na tulad ng tula
Bawat umpisa ay napakatalinghaga ngunit hindi lahat ng mga salita sa wakas ay nagkakatugma

Strong man
Sheena Garao May 2020
I saw your pain
Just in case you forgot
I might keep my mouth shut but I couldn't really take seeing you that stuck

I hope you didn't hold your tears back
For this world has crashed you enough
Let those drops from your eyes watered that flower of dreams that has been drying up

I hope you didn't just lock up your thoughts behind those bars inside your mind
They are full of wonders and words that speaks power

I hope you didn't shut your mouth up just like what I did
You have so much to tell and your heart has been waiting for you to say what it has been beating

I hope you wouldn't be that cruel to yourself
He did his best and still trying to be the man people expecting him to be one

I hope you wouldn't give up with your dreams
For the starts stay still, waiting for you to gather them

I hope you see yourself the way I saw you
He's so amazing that even Superman isn't worth to get compared to

Don't wait for the world to turn for you
Turn the world cause you're more capable to
Pave your own path if you must
You don't have to walk watching the prints they left behind
Create your own and make them wonder how you've got this far.

Brother... The strongest man I've ever know
Those tears are the evidence of bravery
We'll be waiting for the greater man to tell the world the greatest story ever told.

I never have
Sheena Garao May 2020
I never have a favorite song of my own
A song that might have significance for their own reason
Instead I'd play randomly or just think about the season


I never have a stars to look up in the sky
Maybe because they weren't that mesmerizing in my eyes
Little dots up above twinkling their lights
They are all the same and nothing that catches me inside

I've never wrote a poem
Maybe I did but just lost it
The fire didn't survive
Or maybe I can't even find a subject to start with

I never have those things
Not until I knew you
You gave me something to listen to
You drag me out of my shell and dream for the sky
You ignited the fire
And now...
Here you are the subject I've been waiting- i finally found

You watered those plants inside
You make the flowers bloom and have invited butterflies to where they can reside

You make it all possible
In my eyes it was a fairytale
A fairytale that I enjoyed but didn't really happen

You gave me a song to play
I got lost in the middle
Or maybe I let myself get lost cause I know how the last verse might hurt

You make me fall for the stars
Your light that I thought shines just for me
Didn't really know how they just appear to accompany the moon
Then leave when the sun starts to shine through

You make me write a poem
To which I drafted in my head to be like beauty and the beast
Impossible pair yet ends so magical unlike the rest
In reality it seems like Romeo and Juliet
A tragic story, maybe no one died in our very own version
But it feels like November so painful that I wished I could never remember

It seems to be so hopeless
For it's no one's fault but mine
I fantasized it too much
And ended up fall in my own trap

Now that the flowers started to dry
I hope these butterflies could find their way out
For this little heart needs restoration
It might take ages
But surely, it'll comeback to be more like a soldier who just survived a battle

Luna
Sheena Garao May 2020
You came along just as you pleased
People who saw you with full of adoration
With my telescopic eyes you're just like anybody else- full of imperfection
I see your flaws while others enjoy the view
I hated the way I feel but not exactly you- to whom I felt it
You embraced my anxiety
You were there when I'm trying to find clarity
Just as I see the day
You leave so fast just the way you came
Till I see you again
My moon
You who appears just when I needed a little light in my room

Little angel
Sheena Garao May 2020
Sweet little angel
You who sends smile and just wanted to reach the sky
The innocence in your eyes
It's just so beautiful and pure
Time has slowly gotten into you
Sweet little angel who seems so true
The world awakened the demon inside
The one who cannot be tamed and ready to fight
My sweet little angel has slowly vanished
She's lost and seems to have rested but never found the peace that she always wanted
She couldn't find her traces
She couldn't find a way out
Now she's just one of you
Living but doesn't feel alive
Breathing but suffocated

Panaginip
Sheena Garao May 2020
Ang katahimikan nitong gabi
Na tila'y dinadala ako sa panahong ayaw ko sanang matapos
Ang mga halakhak na nagsisilbing musika na gumagabay sa bawat hakbang nitong aming mga paa
Ang mga ngiting nakapinta sa mga mukhang kay tagal na ding hindi nakita
Sayang may dalang takot na wari'y pinapahatid nitong mga mata
Na sa bawat pagsilip sa mga masasayang kaganapan ay sya namang pag kumpas nitong maliliit na kamay ng orasan
Sa bawat segundo kapalit ay bawat alaalang pilit na kumakawala
Matay nakapikit at araw ay pilit na sumisilip
Nagbabadya ng panibagong umaga na pilit kang ginigising mula sa iyong pagkakahimbing

— The End —
