Untitled

As the hope of finding you disappears
and the verge of eternal loneliness draws near,
i feel your presence.
As i blend myself into the busy crowd
my mind slowly drifts away
and all the loud voices begin to dissipate
devoured by the silence of my empty heart
and the lone, mellow strumming of one's guitar
links my soul to eternity
and as the gentle breeze whispers in my ears,
i feel your presence.
Though i don't know where...
i knew you are there.
As i tuck myself in for the night
after another common day flew by
i feel another's heart beat in time with mine
and at that single moment
We were...
and as i close my eyes
i pray that we'll find each other
in time.

Bitter

It doesn't matter where I am
or who I am with
every night that pass

Because sooner or later
when the eve's gone by
it would all end the same way.

All the cheers and laughter
would soon fade away
and I would be all alone.

And try as I might
I could never deprive
the pain from emerging once more.

I would always remember
the words that you've said
and how you made me feel.

How hopeless I've been
on what you chose for me
and that it could never be.

And though I wish so much
to turn back the time
and keep what we once had.

I could never go back
it would never be the same
that's what you said to me.

And so this all ends
since then, didn't change
in darkness, alone, in silence.

Again, I would be returning
to the empty space in my heart
that you have left behind.

Though I sometimes believe
we'd be together like before,
your voice echoes in my mind.

And the truth will forever linger
that this will always be possible
in dreams, only in dreams.

Pagtatakipsilim

Munting luha'y pumatak
Sa kalagitnaan ng paraiso
Isa pa muli ang pumatak
Na sanhi ng pagtatalo

Unting dumaloy sa kapaligiran
At nagdilim ang kalangitan
Lumaganap ang katahimikan
Tanda ng kapahamakan

Nagsimula ang matinding unos
Na sumakop sa buong lupain
At dumaan ang mabagsik na agos
Na kaguluhan ang hangarin

Ngayo'y hinihintay ang sandali
Ang katapusan ng bagyo
At ang araw ay sumikat muli
Sa paghilom ng mga puso

Huling luha'y pumatak
Sa kalagitnaan ng paraiso
At binhi ng pag-ibig ay mahudyak
Na umusbong muli sa nasawing mundo

Destiny

The sand of time slowly trickles to its last grain
The dark disciple casts its wings upon
the shadow of a heartless being
Preparing to claim what seems to be God's greatest
mistake; in an attempt to preserve
the rest of his Creation.
To accept his fate...
To rid of the very pain and suffering that
consumed his soul.
To end all evil caused merely by his presence.
An offer of salvation
from the wrath and torment
enclosed within this vile entity
befor the last link of faith that
chained him down and bound him, breaks
and conscience to forever fade
... I await.

Tag-ulan

Tuwing nagsisimula
ang pagpatak ng luha
ng langit sa lupa
unti-unting nawawala
ang mga mumunting tala
at karimla'y naglipana

At sa paglunod na
ng natatagong pag-asa
at paglalaho ng tiwala
sa maaliwalas na tadhana
nawawala ang pag-unawa
sa buhay na nasisira

Ipinipikit lamang ang mata
tanging pag-ibig ay inaalala
at tuluyang nadarama
ang pagbalik ng ligaya
at sa puso'y dinadala
sa pagsalubong ng bagong umaga

With You

my mind had been wandering
alone and in despair
for life lost its meaning
though i hoped to find somewhere

the glamour of the days had faded
and the sun had lost its shine
and hope soon dissipated
for happiness to be mine

but then you shared your presence
and wiped away my tear
life soon regained its essence
whenever you are near

with you, i have no troubled thought
nor have i felt blue
for some time, an angel have i sought
Now i know, my wish did come true

wishing

Underneath the moonlit sky
Shrouded by the dark cloak of eve
a lover gazed upon a falling star
seeking hope
wishing
for a love to forever hold.
With that, he casts his message
to the heavens above
to heed his call.
And the star, as it was trailing pass
seemed filled with vigor,
ablaze with the lover's dream
and thought to grant his plea.
But slowly, the gleaming entity
dimmed, as time trickled by
until its mystic brightness
faded...
and soon withered away
in the vastness of the cold, silent eternity.
And with its demise
a willful dream
was lost.

introduction

A thousand thoughts pass through my mind
Yet not even one, i could grasp in time
And though I desired, my lips refrained
to speak of what my mind contained
But with passion flowing through my veins
and which my hopeful heart maintains
A pen, had i began to hold
and so, my wisdom then foretold

reminiscing

i used to write from time to time when i felt kind of sentimental. it's kind of fun and amusing now that i'm reading them again because somehow i could sense what i was feeling during that moment. here's one of my untitled works.

Sweeping across the waters of complication
i sailed through life with ease
Beneath the moonlit sky
i basked each night, with overwhelming emotion
not caring about the direction
nor the peril that lay ahead
for with your love that filled my sails
the journey was all that mattered
Like the wind beneath the eagle's wings
You carried me away beyond imagination
and striding in a sea of dreams
there was only one true destination
... to be with you till eternity
But now it seems the wind died down,
to be set on another's sails
and though i wished for love's return
i deemed that it shall never be
now, drifting alone in an empty world
lost, abandoned, with sails all torn
carried by the tides of sorrow
i could feel the vast emptiness closing in on me
waiting to be devoured by the waves of desperation
and into the darkest depths of reality
