It's too easy
To say those things
To hurt those feelings
To do those actions

It's too hard
To hear them talk
To not cry
To stay strong

It's too much
To keep going
To hold on
To not give in

It's too soon
But I'll say it:
*Goodbye
Don't bully

Lend me your eyes.
So I could fill them
with the bursting stars.
Telling tales of the spellbinding universe,
singing songs of exploding suns...
and of splintering quasars.

Lend me your thoughts.
So that if I may,
write of them.
Fantastical scribbles of love
and praise.
Meticulously lined
and carefully stitched...
with immaculate lace at the hems.

Lend me your breaths.
I'd catch them as they fall...
between the words you would say.
Merging mine with yours...
introducing colour...
and vigour
to my monochromatic world of
black, white and grey.

Lend me your heartbeats...
for mine thumps erratic.
As if beating in silent mock.
I depend on the steadiness in yours.
So they could usurp
the ticks of worldly clocks.

Lend me your hands.
Palms up as a sign,
perhaps as an invitation...
for me to take them.
And maybe...
hopefully fill them...
with mine...
Poetry is just taking

Fear
Pain
And anger
And forcing it into words

Poetry is simply taking

Sadness
Depression
And anxiety
And giving it rhythm

Poetry is merely taking

Worry
Love
And broken hearts
And making it a pattern

Poetry is taking these things
And writing it in blood
Pouring your heart out
And giving them life

Habang ako'y naka tayo, ika'y naka upo.
Hindi mo ba napansing sayo'y nakayuko?
Hindi mo na nga pala ako kayang tingalain.
Hindi mo na nga pala ako kayang mahalin.

Kaya pala hindi na kayang pansinin,
Sa iba ka na pala nakatingin.
Tang ina, daig ko pa lumuhod sa asin.
Ang sakit sa damdamin.

Am I jealous?, I don’t know.
Maybe yes but partly no,
Am I jealous?, I don’t think so,
Feelings I want to let go.

I really don’t know why,
Things are meant to be a lie,
I just don’t get it how,
Things are made now.

A part of me is denying,
The other part is confirming,
Maybe yes, maybe no,
Feelings I don’t know.
P.S. Am I Jealous is a breath of fresh air from my timeline because this is my first poem that is not about bitterness or death, something about love.
