..hug me...
i'm a child at lost... missing in the dark...
needing comfort in the middle of this restless weary universe...
so alone... so cold... so frozen...
i'm chilling..

Habang lumilipas ang mga araw
Nararamdaman ko ang pagkitid ng
aking mundo. Parang hindi ko na matanaw ang
lugar kung saan
ako nararapat.
Hindi ko na masambit
ang dating masasayang wika sa mga bibig
ay bumubulalas.
Hindi ko na makuhang
magsalaysay ng nararamdaman
sa takot na ako
ay hindi na dinggin,
balewalain
at hindi pansinin.
Naiiyak ako
ngunit para bagang hindi ako dapat
magpakita ng emosyon
dahil lahat naman daw
ay nalulungkot din.
Para bang hindi ako
marunong makinig at
hindi rin ako
isang mabuting kaibigan.
Para bang ako
ay basurang napadaan
hindi pinapansin
pinagsawaan ng panahon.
Nais ko lang
ng panahong matahimik
upang maging masaya..
maging mabuti kahit minsan
bago man lang mapatid
aking hininga

manunula..manunulat

hindi kaya't masikip
kung ako'y isisilid
sa rehas na ubod
ng kalawang? at doon
gugulin ang mga araw,
magbibilang ng hibla
ng buhok na di humahaba,
pumuti na at naging uban
ngunit hindi humahaba.
nananatiling bilanggo
at hindi humahaba.

hindi kaya't mahirap
kung ako'y igagapos
ng kadenang mabigat
abot-abot hanggang lupa
iginagapang ang paglakad
marating lamang ang siyudad
at doo'y ibilad sa madla
at ipagtabuyang diwa?

gaano ba kahirap
sa isang manunula, manunulat
mapagkaitan ng kalayaang
lumathala't maghayag
bugso ng damdamin, katas ng isipan
iba ang isinasadiwa
iba ang ginagawa
dahil sa kahirapang walang pigil sa paghampas?

gaano ba kahirap
umuwi sa tanang gutom ang kaanak
na sa ginhawa'y salat
mula sa trabahong sa sikmura'y di sapat
trabahong kumain ng oras at pangarap
at hanggang ngayon, inaagaw
yari kong kalayaan....

dear you...

tis been a thousand days and more
and i have been more than grateful
to wake up another day
and find that someone next to me
standing next to me

upside down the world has turned
faces gone, names forgotten, memories blurred
but still have that someone next to me
sitting next to me
sitting next to me

chains broken, loves almost faded
how many times have us been shaken
bewildered, feared, lost
but still i have that someone next to me
sleeping next to me

gone are the storms that blew us apart
and we shall be in solitude now
waiting, waiting, waiting and waiting
and still i have that someone next to me
waiting for you
waiting for me

dear you lost in dimensions
find me here now and break the walls
stand here next to me and tell me it's you
live for eternity
here next with me
dear you..

cinderella 2

still couldn't give myself a wink
the lovely sight of the road, i couldn't forget
playing and dancing and singing inside my head
like a lovely lullaby

feet hopping in the white-painted carousel
captain in white,"here we are mademoiselle
we'll tour the world tonight until tomorrow's dawn"
and so we go, lovely midnight sun

how far are we to go, my sir?
how far are we to travel tonight?
shall you not stop the driving my sir
i shall sit here, this coach shall be forever

don't fret my dear, my car's not a coach
we'll walk tonight the long winding road
and when we get tired this coach's a bed
lit by moonlight, a love's to be made

and so they travelled till eyes got tired
of all the scenery they walked past by
temples' tired, souls tempted
a lovely love to start tonight...

dusa

alas tres..
mainit pa rin ang araw sa kalangitan
mahirap pa rin maglakad sa lansangan
tagaktak pa rin ang pawis
naiisip pa rin
ano kaya bukas?

alas cuatro..
humuhupa na ang init
marami pa ring gawaing pilit
tinatapos, hinahabol, minamadali
may iba pa akong gawain, bukas

alas cinco..
maari nang lumisan, umuwi
sumakay ng dyip, umidlip
nagbibiyahe, nag iisip
nagugulo, nalilito
paano nga ba, bukas?

alas cinco..umaga
gising na't may muta pa,
heto na ang araw
sadyang nilimot na
mahirap talagang mag-alaga, magmahal
nagdurusa

magdamag

parang nakita kita..
kagabi..
sa aking pagtulog..
sa aking tabi..
mahimbing na nakayakap..
pinapawi ang sakit sa gumagambala..
sa aki'y nagpapatangis..
dumating ka nga ba
kagabi??
at ako ay niyakap..
magdamag minahal..
magdamag..

period

...minsan nais kong
lakbayin ang buong mundo...
maging malaya

...minsan nais kong
magkuwento at sumulat
malayang magpahayag

...minsan gusto kong
mapag-isa ngunit nais
ko ding may kausap

...minsan nais kong
gumawa ng mga
bagay na nais ko

...minsan nais kong
lisanin pansamantala
ang huwad na katawan at isipan

...minsan nais kong
maging...
Ako

untitled 2

Tulips are torn since the last you walked

And lingered my sight upon your senses

How long would it take for

Me to find you again

To cross the river with tears forgotten

I touched your face a mass of air

A sweet caress I hungered to stay

Slowly I crept to walk away from here

A prison for life I cannot touch

You

Where could you be?

I hope this might so reach

Flee to you

Home to you, where are you now?

My eyes can not see tampered and blinded

Your touch I can feel

Voice I barely hear

But sight I cannot adhere

Roses will fade each day and an after

And clouds might storm this wind of hopes

A battle for life reason of my life

This song I pray you might be touched

Until the last of air I might take

Again a lifetime I ought to live

Should we not meet, should we not see

To live again again to breathe

To wake up finally

And touch your face

And live each day with you

Until our very last.

asul

wouldn't it be nice to stay
above the grass and sizzle
under the moonlit sky and hold on
to a memory of a laughing childhood...

wouldn't it be nice to look
at the azure fields
in the heavens and wake up
with the sun embracing
from the window pane...

wouldn't it be nice
to simply savour the sweetness of peace
and melt under the blue oceanic skies
and sway eternally playing...

wouldn't it be nice to keep on seeing
lovely blue heavens caught in between the nimbus
and from above rays emerge
alas! the storm is all over....

mata

napapagod...
nahahapo...
naiiyak...
namumugto....

sabi....

...kung hindi maganda ang boses mo....

pwede kang mag-aral mag-gitara..

hindi ka man makakanta, pede ka pa rin mag-banda



...kung gusto mo magtagumpay....
keep your spirit high....



wala lang.. sabi lang ng tita ko


...sabi ng pinsan ko...
mahalin mo trabaho mo at mamahalin ka rin nito...
(hmmmmm....)



...tyaga lang daw, sabi ng isa ko pang tita..
magbubunga din ang trabaho natin...

sabi sabi.....

MOMENTS

Each time when midnight falls in my skies at night
I huddle me and breathe a sigh
To when, to where, to whom do you fly?
And how much tears do I need to cry?

No doubt, I thought this hush was each day
Unharmed, so free, so warm, so juvenile
Each time I convince myself I’m justified
With you, to you, for you, so solemn.

You gave me each timr, the strength, the hope
The will to face the days, to move on and on
There was freedom from all that I have been
You told me you’d be here with me to dream.

I never lose a breath each time with you
May you be there a little bit so far
Each day I smile when you give me a clue
You would be there to shelter my heart.

But when each time you sweep my mind
Eversince I found you not by my side
I disappeared by the hopes you gave me
I closed with tears the love I gave to thee.

Please come home each day I call to you
And we can share a moment again
Each time I pray you would fly home again
And we can love each moment for all times….
