I am a candle.

My flame is small. It provides no warmth, and just enough light. But it takes only a little bit to get me started. Once I am lit, I will burn for a long while. I may not have much to give, but I will give it all, until I'm just a puddle of spent wax.

I can't endure much. I will follow you, but only if you carry me. I will weather the wind, but only if you shield me. I'll be your hope, your light, your shining star.

I am a candle.

There is a place called Pampanga
Home of the world's famous sisig
Where people are called kapampangan
And lanterns called "Parol" are big.

Pampanga is where I live
Just outside Manila, capital of the philippines.
Joy and happiness I recieve
When I'm with my family and kin.

I wrote this one to let the world know
A place called Pampanga I call home.

I knew her even before the day I was born,
in my heart I know she's there.
But when I finally met her,
I cried and shout for joy
for she was the most beautiful and strong woman I ever met,
It was love at first sight.

Holding your hands for the first time feels like heaven.
I love the touch of your hair whenever I rest my head upon your shoulder.
And when it's time for me to rest,
your hands are my cradle and your scent is my lullaby.

I know at times I made you cry
for I was adamant and senseless but you never cared.
Instead,  you kept on loving me and that made me change.
Right then I loved you even more until my last breath.

There are times I want to let go,
then you set me free knowing I would go back to you and never will I ever go.
Your embrace is my comfort
and your sweet kiss is my surprise.

Grace, that is what you are to me.
Love, that is what you gave to me.
I may have love many but MAMA you are the first woman I ever loved.

Lips together
nothing in between.
I taste your sorrow
you swallowed it in.

Won't forget
the chills I get
and the pain
that made me stay.

Eyes are closed
You tucked me in.
It was the last.

A feeling of emptiness
bringing all sadness of a bright day
makes me feel alone, not loved
tears up my heart
brings me down, underneath all
burdens me with mixed emotions
haunts me with memories
pains my soul.

The way you look at me
is just not fair,
you look at me as if
you never cared.

I've wasted too many tears
crying over you
I'ts time to move on
and forget about you.

I won't pick up the phone
and give you a call
just to listen to your  voice-
I don't need it anymore.

I may be afraid
to fall in love again;
I just can't handle
another heart that's broken.
