All About Him

You came into my life because I wanted to

So I pulled the strings to get to you

I didn’t know at first what is the real you

Until you opened up the door and allowed me to

How you feel and how you wanted your life to be


For months I have spent my time with you

We conquered dilemmas we went through

I felt blissful as long as I am with you

To tell you honestly, I have planned a future with you

Though others may not understand but I’m glad if it will come true


We had our first misunderstanding and I didn’t understand

Why you dismissed me and left me out of hand

I never thought that we will patch things up

But it just happened and I am thankful

Since then my life turned to be beautiful


You are the only one that I dared to call as my friend

The only one that crossed me whenever I am wrong

The only one that makes me feel strong

You are the only one that can make me sing a different song

You are the only one who made me feel that I belong


Readers may think that I am talking of a lover

But I am only thinking of someone closer

We have a dysfunctional relationship so to speak

Never more than friends but never less than the other

There is no way that I will wish for any better


In time I felt that what I felt had flourished

Blossomed into a flower so gentle

That it became so brittle

As destiny touched its tenderness

And it slowly started to wither


Though it is fragile, I covered it from drizzle

Cared for it like no other

Watched it every night and shaded it from rain

I have always prayed that it will remain beautiful

Like the way I found it when it was alone and miserable


Yet I have seen that there is only one side of the story

I am the only one who sees

The only one who dreamed

The last one with the will

To fight for what I thought I feel


Why did you cut my wings?

Why did you leave me alone to die?

I am trying to escape

I am trying to move on

But I just can’t


You left me hanging in the air

Full of pain and I lost my way

Tell me how to live again without you?

Tell me how to laugh when I can’t even talk to you

Tell me now that you have clipped my wings


You tormented my soul and left me to die

Though I know that I have lived a lie

I will forever be willing to live that once more

I am not asking you to love me more than I can love you

As long as I know that I can be with you forever more


I am not asking much

All I wanted is that you let me understand

What truly happened that made you go away

That made you leave me in the dark

That caused me tears and left me with an empty heart


I hope that you will hear my plea

Please talk to me again

Make me feel normal again

BRIGHT STAR

I walked barefoot on the warm sand

the cold breeze sent shivers in my hand

I thought that darkness will forever be here

until you came and pulled me near

though we cannot promise forever

and we'll not exchange vows with each other

the world may never understand

still in my heart you'll always be

more than friends yet less than lovers

I feel more satisfied than ever

my love for you had grown much stronger

and I feel that you can't live without me any longer

though you doesn't realize your worth

to me you are more than the world

I will always be here at your side

like a bright star in your dark night

PAYONG

ginising ng malamig na ulan ang aking kaluluwa

noong ika'y aking unang nakilala

ako'y nalulumbay ngunit ikaw ay umalalay

sa payong mo ako ay isinabay

munting kabutihan di naglaoy lumago

yumabong sa pagtitinginang hindi amitago

hindi inaasahang puso ko'y mabibigo

sa iyong pag-ibig ako'y nagsumamo

sa kabila ng iyong tahimik na pamamaalam

pag-ibig mong di maialay sa aki'y ipinaramdam

mundo man ang humadlang sa ating pag-iibigan

pangalan mo'y isisigaw ng aking puso't isipan

CANDLES

I found her lying helpless, crying on the floor

eagerly listening for a knock on her door

she waited patiently, but still her hopes have died

to see the one she loved from which she is denied

candles shined weakly in the darkness of the night

she faithfully wished as she watched its sparkling light

praying that she may see him before her last day

finally, closed her eyes and slept from where she lay

because she is so weak, she didn't felt him coming

he came, lifted her head and kissed her trembling lips

wrapped his arms around her and whispered on her ear,

"I missed you my love 'coz in my heart you are dear“

“I’m willing to give my life to win your heart

I won’t let the two of us to be apart

You are mine and I’ll be forever yours alone

Because in my life you’re the only light that shone.”

She slowly saw her eyes, saw her beloved

She smiled at him, held his hand and softly she said,

“I am very thankful to the lord who brought you here

I feel that I am so blessed, now that you are near.”

the candles slowly burned and shined as time stood still

the beat of their hearts are the only thing they feel

the rushing of their blood is very dear to hear

they drowned deeply and forgot everything they fear

the moon and stars flickered beyond the horizon

he kissed her lips and their skin flamed with one reason

they exchanged vows and promises they’ll keep

that their love will remain on whatever season

they woke up in the room where the sun dimly shined

she said, “I know my love that now you shall depart

worry you shall not, cause I’ll keep you in my heart

I’ll give you a kiss that you’ll feel though we’re apart.”

he softly replied, “no my love, I will not leave

I won’t go without you, in my arms you shall be

a life without you, in the future I can’t see

forever it may be, you’ll always be with me.”

candles shined weakly in the darkness of the night

red flowers blossomed within the lovers sight

in the midst of nowhere they are prepared to fight

their true love protected them and served as their light

love can make you smile, cause a tear or even kill

like a candle burning even though time still

it shines in the midst of the darkness of the night

though their hearts are lost, they are guided by the light

HELLO STRANGER

hello stranger!

our roads crossed

I saw your smile

and felt I wasn't alone

hello stranger!

may I know your name

I want to befriend you

I hope you feel the same

I found comfort beside you

and felt that I need you

now that I found you

I will never let go

still, time comes to an end

our roads shall not meet again

I will bid you goodbye

and won't forget you 'til I die

LOST

I knew I took the right road
but they lead me to a dead end
to a dark place I never knew
I longed for someone to be with me
but nobody saved...nobody
I lost my way and lost my life
I experienced the longest nights
they never seem to end
I lost myself
I hid beneath the bushes
away from the light of the full moon
I will be hiding and running forever

PARASITE

the brightness of the sun died as darkness filled her room
tears fell down her eyes when she felt the coming of her doom
as darkness touched her lips, her heart pounded with desire
desire to indulge the sweetness that will never die

she lost her way in the middle of a long, long road
she almost gave it up because of her heavy load
she closed her eyes when she felt warm hands wrap around her
she let go of herself and said, "please take me away!"

"take me away! take me away! I give you my life.
I surrender you everything, I won't give a fight.
I wanna drink your blood, fill me in within your might.
let us feel the joy of this cursed life though it ain't right.“

she opened her eyes and realized who the man is.
he smiled at her and said, "touch me, feel me, drown in me."
"take me in, take me deep, you don't have to fight this now.

they held each other and walked towards the horizon
whenever they are together, they are unstoppable
she depended everything on him, she became his world
but nothing lasts forever, his love will never stay.

he started to get tired of her more and more everyday.
but she got addicted so she needed him to stay.
she said to herself, " where will I go? what shall I do?"
"I don't wanna be lost. don't go away, say you'll stay!“

still he went away and left her, now she lost her way
she found an escape, within the forbidden river's bay
she stepped into the water and drowned within it's stillness
the water conquered her body, now she's into deep.

blinded by the lime light, along with other lost souls
she can't see the top, she can't get out of the water
her anger pulls her back. she can't get any better
she wanted to have him back and wants him forever.

but he never returned, and back he'll never be
so darkness pulled the girl down, her feet were now in chains
she wanted to find an escape within the deep pain
but life is not so easy and back he'll never be.

she's now a parasite, she needed life from others
she drowned deeper within the stillness of the water
her visions fogged, now she can't see the way tog get out
and now she'll never know what her true life is about
