Constant Variable

Expectations, all shattered and torn One might even live in fear and mourn For love is part happiness and part scorn Yet I can see the exquisiteness in the love that was born

The moment that we met the grounds were muddy and unclear Don’t know where to go, fumbled where to steer Yet lo and behold, through those doors you suddenly appear I was wrapped with joy, confusion, comfort, doubt even fear There are no right nor wrong way to describe such welling An indescribable mix of a new emotion but also a familiar feeling A sight to behold to rekindle a heart that once stopped beating I hope you are the constant to a world where everything seems fleeting

Disyembre A Uno

Sa gitna ng gabing kaylamig at kinang ng mga bituin Sa kalangitang napapalibutan ng Liwanag at naglalaho ang dilim At ang umagang siyang napapalibutan ng ulap at kulimlim Nagagalak na ang pasko’y sasapit na tayo’y nasa isang bubong lilimlim

Parol na nakasabit sa daang matarik at sa eskinitang puno ng memorya Ito ang simula ngunit tayo’y patuloy na gagawa ng marami pang ala-ala Simbolismo ng pag-asa at pagtanaw sa bukas ay ating laging tinatamasa Sa pagkat ang disyembre ang buwan kung saan tayo’y unang nagtanaw at nagkita

Bagkus isang pala-isipan parin kung pano nagpatuloy at humantong sa kasalukuyan Nagsimula sa litratong malinaw ngunit ang mga isip ay may konting kalabuan Gayon pa ma’y walang pagsisi o hinanakit sa ating kinahinatnan\ Pagka’t aking napatunayan na ang aking pagmamahal at sayo laman mailalaan.

A day In our Lives

As the saxophone plays jazz in the back of the room I see you through the curtains by which you loom Picturing ourselves as a pair of bride and groom To our future from our present I do desire to look forward and zoom

As we sit and bask in the sunlight of the morning dew And we sip our coffee and we wait for the next one to brew As I kiss you off to work and leave you to your craft with your crew And we end our day together talking about our time as we let the time that flew

A day may not be perfect all the time And our moods may not always sync nor rhyme And hardships could take its toll and we may roll in grime But what we have is something that no one could replace or mime

Huling Halakhak

Prosesong medikal ang siyang araw-araw na binubuno Ngunit ang apoy na siyang nagliliyab ang siyang sayo ay bumubuo Tila tubig na sinilaban at patuloy na pinapainit at kinukulo  At ang araw ay dadatnan na ikaw ay may Stetoskopyong magsusundo

Ang daan ay matarik sa kalsadang kulay berde at puti Sandamakmak na librong nakalahad sa lamesa, kama at sa kwartong di maikukublI Magdamag nakadudok sa teleponong ang mga alaramng tili ng tili At ang mga matang nagmamakaawang sa tulog na kung pwede lamang mabili

Ngunit sad ulo ng nasabing berde at puting bundok na tinahak Sa walang kapatawarang mga propesor at kagrupong iyong sinabak At salamat sa mga kaibigang tumulong sayo’t siguradong tatatak Sayo, Nars, mapupunta ang huling halakhak.

Fishes In the Sea

The saying always entails “There are many fishes in the sea” People that you can court or pursue, a girl or boy as far as the eye can see Such a statement is true for there are countless options to take a plea However, from where I am now I couldn’t be more content as I could be There are countless reasons as to why one would opt to find another Happier perhaps? More activities to do? Fewer burdens to shoulder? Yet such thoughts are nothing but meaningless pieces of fodder For If it's not you that I am with, why would I even bother?

Love is indeed a complex matter, yet simple enough to fall into One may be in deep without having the slightest of clue Do I have regrets? Of course, there are indeed a few Yet, I assure you my love, none of them is choosing to love you

Magkaibang Mundo

Sa ating mundo na tilya milyong milyong milya ang siyang pagitan Ang ating mga gawi ay tila walang pagkaghalintulad sa anumang karanasan Ngunit ito tayong pinag-tagpo at magkasama sa di natin malalaman na dahilan Magkaiba man ang mundo’y ako’y nagagalak na ikaw ang nasilayang paraluman

Maraming pagkukulang at karanasan ang napupunan ng isat-isa Pagkaing masasarap, lugar na pupuntahan ngunit ang nangingibabaw parin ay pagsinta Kahit na kumain sa karindirya o di kaya sa mamahaling establishimentong maraming paninda Ako’y kuntento basta’t ikaw ay malusog at maligaya

Bagkus hindi ako ang perpektong tao o lalake na para sa iyo Paulit-ulit na pagkakamali at pagkukulang ang maaring nararanasan mo Ngunit hindi man ako magiging perpekto, ay magiging mas Mabuti para sayo Ikaw ang para sa akin at ako ang para sayo, sisikapin na ang talatang ito ay laging maging totoo

LEARNING

Destiny may be bleak and one might struggle to find a pair As someone who doesn’t believe that the universe will decide fair And that every strand of one’s being down to a single strand of hair Is a fragment of our control and every action is done once we dare Yet here you are standing in front of who seems to be lost Where he believed that love will always come with a hefty cost A heart that is no warmth can be deemed and all is frost Yet he believed, in the love that you manage to cause

It was arduous indeed to live by chance not having a single clue And hang it all to destiny like a lost raft lost in the ocean’s blue Yet a lighthouse with you in it leads the way and a new path comes to brew I learned to love again, and it’s all thanks to none other than you

PALAISIPAN

Pagmamahal na siyang pala-isipan sa nakararami Iba’y nagugulumihanan sa paghahanap o di kaya’y nagtitimpi Ang iba’y naghihintay sa nagiisang ginoo o bini-bini Habang ako’y natagpuan na ang irog na siyang minimithi

Gaya nga ng sabi ang pag-ibig ay darating sa di inaasahang pagkakataon Na bubulaga at magpaparamdam sa kakaibang pagkakataon Labas sa control ninoman at walang depenetibong solusyon Ngunit ang pagtuloy o paghinto ay magdedepende sa mangyayaring diskusyon

Hindi man naging perpekto ang ating simula At mabato man ang mga nangyayari habang tayo’y nasa pagitna Basta’t ikaw ang kasama sa pagharap sa mga problema’t mga sumpa Ay matatapos natin ang ating buhay na magkasama hanggang sa huling tula.

RIVER

Perfection is the enemy of progress as the convention may suggest However, in such a statement I do hardly contrast and digress For perfection, can't be defined as having any mistakes as an honor with a crest The way I see it, the flaw that we nurture and see past through, would be what’s best

No couple in the world would say that they are in a perfect relationship. Because such would be stale and boring like a destination without a trip A journey through life with you even in the ups and downs and the rocking of the ship These are the memories that I will always cherish, and I will always keep

I always say that you are perfectly imperfect for who you are and what you do Such will always be constant and will always stay true Even though there are times that I would not have a single clue But the only thing I know that as rivers would keep flowing I will always be here to love you

KAMPANA'T PIGING

Halina't makisalo't makikain sa inihandog na piging Sa Araw na kung saan matutupad Ang mga dasal na hinihiling Sa laro ng Buhay na may panganib at saya na tila tinikling Tayo'y nakagawa ng kwentong tutumbas sa anumang singing

At ngayon na tayo'y sa ikatlong taon ay humantong Sa pagpapahiwatig ng pagmamahal na kahit pasigaw o pabulong Saludo na Rin sa ating mahabaang pagreresolba at pagpupulong At nangangarap na sa harap ng kampana tayo'y tutungtong

Bagama't malayo pa Ang ninanais na makamit Ngunit Ang nsabing pangitain ay kailanma'y Hindi ipagpapalit ipaglalaban,hahangarin, pangangalagaan at hahawakan ng mahigpit Dahil Ang singsing ay inaasam na balang-araw sayo'y maisukbit
