There is a calm
A sort of closeness
That comes after heartbreak.
With nothing else
But acceptance to cling to,
It reigns alone
Controls hope and futures.
In the lack of light
Calm resides in silence.
But one thought
brings with it the knowledge
'it will be Alright '...
Because it will.
Take this and be guided
Back to light and laughter.
To life and happiness.

( Sonnet )*

Someday, soon I will sail a boat,
Away from all the modern seas,
I shall be cast aside, with wind,
The four corners, all calamities.

And gentle waves will carry me
Afar, sailing lost under the stars,
To live in dreamy breaths happily
And never wake, forever slumber,

Free as ocean birds, downy gliding
With currents that are leading true,
To the domes, new heavens hiding,
This is my plan, my soul to renew.

Farewell, fated blue world spinning;
I'm off a rocker, for lofty beginnings.

I died
right there and then
in the most vicious manner
with every touch she crafted on his skin
and every smile she formed to his lips
she mutilated me—sliced my body
and took away the happiness in me
I was buried inside the coffin
of their screaming memory
and I yelled back in agony

then he ran to me
pulled my soul with powerful force
of his convincing gravity
he resuscitated what she stole
and returned my heart to a whole

It may look like it’s easy for me to fake a laugh

Behind it is a heart tearing apart

Faking a smile, but in truth starts to cry

O God, this face filled with lies



I thought I can suppress my feelings

But in the end, all I can hear from myself

I love you, can’t you feel?

All this time…even if you always push me away



There was this person who told you first

I was beaten ahead even if since long ago

You already captivated me

This face faked with no reaction from it at all



It wouldn’t do any good if you knew

The feelings since long ago kept hidden

Protect a treasured friendship

I must bury these feelings down with me



I am so scared of the time

Shall it comes for me to be rejected

This whole time loving you

How foolish but I just can’t help it



It really hurts but what must I do?

I must put this face expressionless

For I fear you might see

My love that was never meant to be

Mga daliri’y nanginginig

Aking mga labi’y sumisigaw ngunit walang tinig

Buong katawan niyayakap na ng lamig

Nang siya’y tumalikod para bang walang naririnig

Kailan kaya matutunaw,

Singlamig ng yelo, mga matang aking natatanaw

Kahit ganoon, isang bagay parin saki’y malinaw

Oo, puso ko’y iyong nabihag at paulit-ulit na ninanakaw

Sa mga nasisilip na bihirang ngiti mula saiyo

Ako’y mapapangiti, tatawa parang baliw ng totoo

Minsan ngiti mo’y kasing init ng araw

Ngunit tuwing ika’y nalulumbay, o luha ko’y umaapaw-apaw

Lubusang nagugulumihanan, nakakabaliw

Bakit itong nararamdaman ni minsan di nagmaliw

Paulit-ulit na binubulong sa sarili walang pag-asa

Ngunit sa loob looban di maiwasang patuloy na umaasa

Tinig ng puso ko’y hinding hindi mo napapansin

Di bale patuloy kang mamahalin ng palihim ng aking damdamin

Hihintayin ko ang pagtunaw ng yelo lumipas

Kahit abutin ng walang hanggan ang lamig ng pag-ibig na dinaranas
