Now is the Time

At kung sakaling darating ang panahon,
Marinig mo ang aking tugon.
Sa puso't isip mo'y sana mababaon,
Minahal kita noon at ipaglalaban kita ngayon.

Puerta Cerrada

I still don't understand how things revolve,
On my surrounding they seem to evolve.
Leaving me wondering and halted,
People really sometimes are stupid.

You clearly know it's a fake admiration,
A consistent effort because he wants your attention.
You know it's wrong in the first place and yet,
Just how much do you love to drink that poison.

They said the one who never gives up has the real feelings,
Then why do they always end up cursing while crying?.
It's no brainer to tell the difference,
Yet you don't want to be called no intellect

You've seen how pure was my heart,
Until the day I chose to live in the darkest part.
These chain that binds me to hate I can't break,
No matter how fast I ride I can't escape.

I never regret facing this horror,
I will have this hate with smile until my heart opens again and unlocks the door.
I have to because I made the biggest mistake not just an error,
It shouldn't have been you I gave my heart for.

April Fools

I once went to a cafe,
Ordered a small cup of tea.
As smooth as butter gushed on my throat,
I was so satisfied with what I bought.

Summer is coming,
The hot sun is rising.
I love seeing the sky crying,
But for quite sometime we may never see the rain.

But before summer has come to be,
First, Let it be April fool me.

Binibini

Binibini nais kong marapatin,
Puso mo sana nais kong dalawin.
Kung hindi lang abala sayo,
Tangka ko pa sana itong nakawin.

Hindi ako mahihiya,
Garbo ko'y bibitawan bahagya.
At hindi mag aatubiling magmalimos,
Konting pagtingin mo ay isa ng karangalang lubos.

Siguro ang mga letrang ito'y di mo mapapansin,
Subalit darating ang araw na ako'y ma mi miss mo rin.
At kung buhay pako sa panahong iyon,
Wag kang mag dadalawang isip na sumilong sa aking payong.

Yayakapin kita ng mahigpit,
Pero syempre yan ay may kapalit.
Ngiti sayong pisngi ang siyang kabayaran,
Pagkat ito'y pumapawi sa bigat na aking nararamdaman.


Ang sarap talagang halikan ng iyong noo,
Sana bigyan mo ako ng isang magandang yakap pagkatapos nito.

Greyed Out

Life so good and enchanted,
Breathing the air God granted.
Appreciating every moment with whom I spent,
Though has become learning, but never been a time wasted.

For what other things we are looking for?,
If we already have it in us afterall.
The only thing that's hard to do,
Is to see how colorful is the life's hue.

And even if we tried to avoid,
Time will come will have to face this cord of morgue.
It has been enough time for running,
When you're ready you won't fear anything.

Let other people be the judge,
A position they are not even qualified.
All I see is hypocrisy,
Nowadays these motherfuckers has been living freely.

And the fuck I care with all they say,
They will still say something even if you do it their way.
So let's go back to square one,
Rather than continuing this already wretched run.

Sa Sulok

Sa sulok ng isang silid,
Lubid ay pilit binabatid.
Parang kadenang pumipihit,
Nakatali sa puso kong namanhid.

Kahit anong gusto kumawala,
Nauuwi lang lahat sa pekeng pagtawa.
May umuusbong na takot,
Humihina pag-ibig laban sa lungkot.

Kay tagal ko mang minimithi,
Kalayaan para bang di ko mababawi.
Di makita kung pano nakakulong,
Sa rehas mong di masusuplong.

Sa isang sulok ako ay malungkot,
Ngunit nakangiting namaloktot.
Dahil sa isang sulok na sa iba'y salot,
Dun ko inipon at ginapos ang aking poot.

Bahaghari

At sa paglipas ng unos,

Nakatayo parin ang pag-asang nalapnos.

Na para bang may kinakapitan,

Kaunting liwanag lang ang pinanghahawakan.

Di ko alam kung papaano,

Sa bawat pagtulog inaalala ko.

Sa bawat pag higa nakikita ang mukha mo,

Na umaasang sana maging tayo.

Alam ko namang impossible,

Pero nasanay narin naman kasi akong mabuhay at mag silbi.

Di alintana ang galit at poot saking damdamin,

Pagtatampo ko'y wag sanang baliwalain.

Isang munting hiling na sanay mapansin,

Di man ako ang iyong hiling ngunit ikaw ay lahat para sakin.

Mahirap man lampasan ngunit aking titiisin,

Hanggang sa muling pag unos aantayin ang iyong pagdating.

Takbo

Isang hapon di ko inakala,
Tatakbo lang sana para makatulog mamaya.
Ngunit nakita kita sa aking tabi,
Talaga nga namang nakakabighani ang gabi.

Ako'y nagmamadali pero di ko binilisan,
Sa mabagal mong pagtakbo ika'y sinabayan.
Inaantay bawat hakbang mo,
Umaasang sana mapansin mo ako.

Hindi ko alam kong anong meron ka,
At naisipan ko bigla ika'y napakaganda.
Kung katawan lang ang titingnan marami na akong nakita,
Mas balingkinitan pa sayo o higit pa.

Pero di ko rin alam kung bakit ako'y sumaya,
Sa bawat pagbilis ko'y ikaw ang inaalala.
Na para bang sinasabi ko sayo,
"Sige lang kaya mo pa".

Matagal rin tayong nag-ikot,
Mabagal na takbo pero paghingal ay nagpang-abot.
Hanggang ikaw ay napagod, at huminto.

Binagalan ko pa ang mabagal ko ng pagtakbo,
Para maramdaman mong ikaw ay inaantay ko.
Ngunit sa biluhabang takbuhan ikaw ay lumisan,
Kung pagod kana bakit tumatakbo kapa sa aking isipan?.

Happy Birthday!

The moment I realize I can't always win,
Is the time I started appreciating those times I didn't lose.
Then I remember this guy who once died in the cross.

He was born years ago on this same day,
He is the most powerful creator.
But even he started a simple journey,
As a human, tormented with pain had he.

Beneath the glow of unending rays,
He hid his powers and played lowkey.

He has the greatest wisdom,
That they never were able to decode.
So they nailed him to the cross,
As hard as they could.

Envy they felt, jealousy it went.
And their solution is killing his human body swift.
For we humans are too afraid of what we couldn't understand,
For us mystery is a crime.

Little do they know he is the lord,
Now he has risen effortlessly.
And now sitting with the Father Almighty,
He will then come to judge the living and the dead.

But before that let us remember,
Different versions, but for the most he was born in December.
His sacrifice will prosper,
In our hearts it will be remembered.

Happy Birthday!

Unsung Hero

The man who shares his seat to the elderly,
In the bus when nobody cares to see.

He always checks his environment,
When he is buying an important ticket.
Checking if he will see a woman trying hard carrying a baby,
He intended to give his place for that lady.

The one who always says thank you,
After the vendor gives the change that is due.

He is lenient overlooking little things,
Just for the sake of avoiding conflict.

He does not want hate and war,
He wants peace.
Not because he is incapable,
But because he just came from it.

A man who always smiles,
When a stranger gives him a stare.

For the dogs, showing the teeth is intimidating,
But he is showing his teeth for the sake of smiling.
To lift the spirit,
To kill the awkwardness.

His eyes are teary when he smiles,
Those eyes that have seen almost ever man's kind.

He knows everyone will take advantage if given a chance,
Thus he gives his advantage for the weak and deprived.

Might not be the only one in this world,
But he can't be described by a common word.

I always see him in everyday,
He too always smiles at me.

When I look at the mirror,
It's him I see.

Kathang Isip (Hango sa bobo kong pag-iisip.)

Isang araw, tanghali na ng ako'y nagising,
Isang mensahe galing sa kaibigan agad kong napansin.
May magandang balita raw na parating,
Ako'y natuwa, Crush ko sa opisina,
May pag asang makilala.

Ako'y naghanda, nagbihis ng maganda,
Sumisipol habang tumatawa.
Imahinasyong mapaglaro, mapag-anyaya.
Forever sa piling nya naaaninag, nakikita.

At ganun nga ako ay pumasok na at nagpatuloy,
Umiilag sa init ng araw para damit ay di mangamoy.
Habang nandun na ilang oras inisip kung ano ang sasabihin,
Isip ko'y hinahasa at pilit minemorya,

Mga katagang sasabihin, punchline at iba pa,
Upang pag uusap natin di boring, maging masaya.
At dumating na oras pero bakit wala pa,
Ok lang baka sa break nalang nila.

Dumating na end of shift ko wala parin,
Unti unting bumabaon sa isip ko lumalalim.
Impossible nga yata na pumayag makipagkilala,
Nakalimutan ko isa siyang prinsesa.

Isang dyosa na animo'y hulog ng langit,
Kay ganda niya nakakalimutan kong pumikit.
Di bale na kung di ko siya makilala,
Basta sana lang makita ko siya minsan.

Ako ay umuwi, di ko na inisip kung bakit,
Puso ko parang dinurog sa lamig.
Ito nga yata ibig sabihin ng malamig na pasko,
Di pasko pero ang lamig na.

Di naman siguro masamang mangarap,
Atleast kanina ako'y sumaya.
Napangiti ng di ko nahahalata,

Isang kathang isip na gusto ko paniwalaan,
Alam ko namang sa huli masasampal ng katotohanan.
Ngunit tingnan ka ay isang karangalan,

Ang ikaw ay makasama ay parang lakad sa tubig,
Sa imahinasyon ko nalang itutuloy ang ating pag-ibig.
