Malumanay mong tingin.
Mata’y ayoko nang basahin.
Hihinga nang malalim.
Nagpagalamang nasasaktan pa rin.
Siya ba?
Mga patlang na ‘di pa napupunan.
Alaala’y hanggang hangin na lang.
Walang kwenta mong dahilan.
Sapat na para ika’y iwan.
Ilang taong nagkasama.
Nawala nalang sa isang sana.
Sana hindi ka nakita.
Nakitang may kasamang iba.
‘Cause it felt so much better to dance with you in the dark than for you to see my imperfections in the light.
Joker
The sound of his laughter filled the deafening room as I zoned out thinking I could be the reason behind it.
For real.
Skinny love.
For the first time.
It was just a skinny love.
I asked God, “why ?”
I never got an answer.
Half yes, half no.
I stayed for a long time.
I never let go.
Heart’s not ready.
I said no.
He blamed me.
How’s that supposed to be?
He found someone, because of me.
I said “I’m happy for you”.
But he wanted to see me.
Told me he missed me.
Told me he loved me.
But you got her now.
He insisted.
I said “No, it’s not like before.”
Be with her.
Treat her better.
Stop playing your games.
I hope she’s a game changer.
Cause if not, I feel pity for her.
Fusion
There’s a part of me who wants to settle for less with him, and a part of me who knows my worth and wants more than the way he’s treating me.

Pagkakataong sinayang.
Damdaming inaksaya.
Ayoko na sana
Maghihintay pa ba?
