akin
H Logos Jun 16
akin ka na lang
hindi habangbuhay, hindi kailangan
isang sulyap lang sa mata **** tahimik,
isang gabi lang na ako lang ang alam

isang beses lang kita mahawakan
sa paraan na hindi mo kailangan ipaliwanag
kahit di mo ako mahal
kahit bukas, di mo na maalala

tapos pwede na akong masaktan
kahit masaktan
kahit masaktan

at least,
hindi ko na kailangang itanong
kung paano ka humawak ng kamay
kapag totoo

akin ka nalang.
isang beses lang kita mahawakan—
tapos pwede na akong masaktan.

moon or stars
H Logos Jun 25
someone once asked me,
moon or stars?
and i didn’t know
what to say
i laughed it off,
said something like
depends on the day

but i kept thinking
long after they forgot,
stared at ceilings
my chest in a knot
and long closed doors
trying to name
what moved me more

the steady pull
of a silver moon,
or how stars burn
and disappear to soon

and then it hit me
something softer,
yet brighter than stars,
something that pulls more gently,
but deeper than moonlit scars

i’ve gotten an answer

and so now,
if anyone asks,
moon or stars?
i’d say your eyes
this is from a quote on twitter. "moon or stars? your eyes"
it just felt really cute and i wanted to make a poem around it

maybe just a little line
right beneath your pulse
and mine
like
“i wanted to say this sooner,”
or
“you looked so beautiful
yesterday, at noon, or”
i forgot the time.

maybe
“i fell for you on a thursday,”
even if i don’t quite recall the day
or what you wore
but i remember your smile
and i stayed a while.

i’d write it small, just in case
you glance down
and find my place
a little note you didn’t miss,
a love letter,
on your wrist

and if you ever wash it off,
i wouldn’t mind.
some words
don’t need to stay
to stay.

just a while
H Logos Jun 22
the way that you laugh
is a gift from above
and it is enough,
to make me think love

anything you do
my gaze darts your way
and i swear it’s true,
you’re the one i wish would stay

you make me feel the buzz
of loving once again
you make me remember warmth
because alone, i never can

though ive never known you before
it feels like i've known you so long
and though i know what's in store
it make me just want to tag along

and spend a little while with you
just a little while with you
where we can see the burning sky
and feel the stone cold air

we'll see the morning star set
and the rise of the evening sky
the fall of every feather
from every young bird's flight

but if our river banks split
and our journey takes us away
we'll end our night with a daydream
to start anew on another day
and everything will be alright

— The End —
