Missing you – I always feel incomplete like a part of me is missing when you’re not here. I know that right now, this is how things have to be…You’re physically present but your mind is somewhere in the middle of nowhere… I already miss you like you’re already gone… You just don’t know how [...]
Am I just being a paranoid or what? I know most of you have already experienced the feeling of being in a paranoid state. What is paranoid anyway? It is said that you are a paranoid when you are having feelings of intense distrust and suspecting that something wrong is going on without having proofs.
And [...]
Relationships aren’t prisons
Not even for a while.
Love isn’t a trap
And no one who says they love you should make you feel like crap.
No one deserves to be beat
or forced to kiss someone’s feet.
Love should be caring and leave you feel like flying.
Love is precious
Love can make you smile
And hurt ones in a while…
I fear that one day
I’ll see go and step away
Here now I’m waiting ’til I may move on
Here now hopin’ that you’d make me strong…
But… All we’ve received is pain
As we both don’t want to love again
Don’t love in a [...]
Of Love, Illusions & Pain
In my words I’ll hide my misery…
Woes of my heart are like a litany.
Maybe I should think of myself as lucky
To have held you in my arms, I was so silly
My happiness I guess were all illusion
Made me forget I’m fighting a revolution.
Amidst all the pain, toil and the confusion
My illusions [...]
To The One I Can’t Stop Loving
By: Selvo
Why did my heart forget,
that at the end of each day the sun will set.
Oh it hoped for the sunrise
it did not matter if pain is the price.
Why does my soul ask why,
did it forget that summer is dry.
Oh it hoped for the changing of the season
It hoped [...]
Grow Old With You
By: Katherine Burden
Loving you is different
Loving you is cruel
Loving you is selfish
Loving you is sweet
A spell running through my veins
A poison that locked my heart
The air that keeps me breathing
Torch that lights my path
Miles may separate us
Time may pass by
But in my heart you’ll stay
Forever shall I say?

Pagsuko
by Isagani Dela Cruz
Kapag inasnan na ng luha ang unan at ang pisngi
At kapag ang bulong ng pagtatalo, sa tainga’y bumingi
Isasalaysay mo ba nang paulit ulit ang gunita?
Ipipikit mo ang mata sa nakikita?
Kapag ang pangako sa katuparan ay lumayo
Ang pahina ng kalendaryo bumibilis sa paglaho
Ipaaalala mo ba ang tuldok, saknong at tanong
at tandang padamdam sa [...]
UNWEAVING
by Joy Barredo

We met when the moon
was kissing
the earth
communing with the sun
from then on we
said we were one
o

Time comes for unleaving
because no matter
how much the leaves cling
to the strength
of the tree
autumn
never fails
to fulfill its promise
o

e
I am part of you
as much as you
are part of me
one body
one heart
but two [...]
