kayo na ba?
nakita ko na siya
bagay kayo

sabi mo,
parang hindi naman

kamusta ka na ba?
di na kita nakikita
uso rin sakin mag-alala

di ka naniwala kaya sabi mo,
parang hindi naman

dito ka lang
para masaya
baka mahal na kita

sabi ko,
parang hindi naman

nandito ka
ako
tayo

pero bat parang hindi naman

Perhaps it wasn't just his right eye that was blind,
Perhaps it was his,
Moral compass,
And his heart, a little, too.

I wrote for you
a few lines cut short

on minimum length,
a single piece

I long for you
that's all there is
