Here we go with the New Normal.
Fck that shit.
Ang dami mong ideya ngunit hindi mo maibahagi. Imbes na sumuporta ay pag kuwestyon ang napala. Bakit nga ba uso ang manghila pababa?
Etong utak ko din ang may sala! Napamahal masyado sa proseso walang inisip kundi mapaganda pa ito.
Kahit kanya kanya sila sa pagbabango, walang nakikinig sayo sa larangang ito, walang may paki pero patuloy pa din ito.
Punyetang utak ito, pero ganito na talaga siguro.
Daydream
It's this kind of scenarios that makes me rethink whether I'm alright. Definitely not.
Daydream
Another day
Another time to waste
Along with all the ideas
I think are not waste
Maybe it's risky
If only was given a chance
Instead, got treated like garbage
Pulled down till you are buried
Are they intimidated?
It feels like its hatred instead
Does it reveal their intention?
Cause it feels like a competition
But you're awaken
From the dream you're making
Staring blankly till it's forgotten
Maybe, it's better to be forgotten.
A new start
Finding a way to restart
The life you had and be smart..
And maybe it'll save you
From youself and be alive.
Pahingi ng dahilan
Para ako'y lumaban
Utak kong bumabaliko
Para bang sinto sinto
Pilit hinahanap ang gusto
Ano ba talaga ang silbe ko?
Dream
Damn.
Lived a dream
On top of everything
But one day it was gone
And life has cheated again
What's going on?
Felt something's wrong?
Everything is in order
Or are you blinded by disorder?
You become a shell
To hide your old self
Empty and soft
Fragile and useless
It left you dry
It left you dead
And every single day will pass
Did you regret, how it felt?
How does it feel
To be able to speak freely
To be able to feel lovely
To be able to be at peace
Kiss
Have you watched Backstreet Rookie? It made me write this haha! Kim Yoo Jung is so pretty ❤️
I can't imagine how it's even possible
Staring at you beyond this counter table
Thinking that it was beautiful
That you are still beautiful
How many years has passed already
Still thinking of that kiss you gave me
While sipping my hot cup of tea
Staring at the nothingness, blankly
Confused, what is this feeling?
When I see you, I know it's beating
Not expecting this to happen
But why am I getting excited?
I can't imagine of this moment
At the rooftop of your apartment
Standing in front of you, wondering
While our hands intertwine
Will you accept my feelings?
Let me return the kiss that was given.
Some of us do this to conceal what they feel in order to shed some light to those in need.
"Artistically Weird"
We only rely on what we see,
how it is stunning, visually.
how you see the details
Like a paradise we'd live in.
An art that was appreciated
Without knowing who made it
the inspiration behind it
the reason it was created.
Why does some are used to this?
Created art that's the opposite
They'll make you feel betrayed
When you think, it's insane.
We only rely on what we hear
Its harmony blends in our ear
how the beautiful lyrics came in
That kissed your soul, passionately.
A harmony of love songs,
mixed feelings with a sad note.
How it boost the tension inside you
without knowing if its true.
Most of the amazing art you'll get to see
Are those made by the broken and weak.
Too subtle that you'll never notice
All the struggles that they're in.
The demons you battle every fucking day.
"Your Inner Demon"
As I close my eyes, I imagine
A moment that I always wanted
A quite and peaceful place
Away from sorrow and pain
I always knew something's wrong
Uncontrollable decision, weird action
It confuses me with all this tension
And I'm starting to lose it all
All those voice that are screaming
How it define your well being
"You suck" and "you're nothing"
It kepts on yelling and it's breaking
How am I supposed to keep it?
When all it did was to linger.
How should I even treat it?
When all they ever did was to feed it.
A place you'll wish to visit. A one way ticket into the deep.
"What you can call as hell"
Welcome to a place you'll love
Where all things are crushed
And forces people to get lost
As they play with their prey
And here's how we fell
Lied to and it hurt as hell
Now all dreams have faded
and every detail, jaded
It dictates the unfortunate
To live in a world of hate
Disguised as a paradise
A world made for your angst
Where it is filled with greed
You'll feast with the beast
And next thing you know
You're next to be killed
Here lies the thoughts that are hidden. How it makes us feel all broken.
"Lies from within"
You hated the night
You hated them, right?
Giving up, wrap it up
Surrender and just stop.
Stare into the eyes of what seems
To have died a long, long time ago
Indenial of what is happening
A smile to cover up from deep within
An empty cocoon
A soul less buffoon
Zombified, electrified
Someone who is lost in time
Consumed, and now rotten
How everybody disgusts them
And just to prove it them
You're not broken and wounded
But every time we're trying to live
To feel positive, to set us free
We're being dragged down below
They'll hurt us, they'll kill us too.
A little boost could help.
"A little boost"
So I think it's time
To pull myself up
From this place
I know I fucked up.
You know I hate it!
No really, I hate this!
The feeling that I'm stuck,
Unable to free myself up.
I might need a little help,
Or just a boost for myself.
In order to get back up
At least fix this mishap.
I really wanted to live
What you're willing to give
That maybe it is too deep
To understand, to make a stand.
Mas mabuti pa kasing inilihim nalang.

"Umibig ng palihim"
Nagmahal ako minsan ng palihim
Inaabangan ang minsang pag tingin
Umaawit na minsa'y madinig
Naman niya ang tinig ng pagibig
Kung kayang ipahayag
Ang namumuong nadama
Tatanggapin nya ba,
O kaya'y lilisan bigla?
At maiwan sa isang sulok bigla
Talunan, luhaan at gustong mawala
Kaya mabuting nilihim nalang
Baka sakali'y malimot ko pa
Nagmahal ako minsan ng palihim
Eto ata'y pinaka ayokong gawin
Ibinaon sa lupa, huwag ng makita
Dahil takot na ako muling umiyak
Tinitiis nalang ang takot
Dinudungaw nalang sa malayo
Habang nakikita siyang masaya
Puno ng saya sa piling ng iba
Doubts that consumes you. Destroys you.

"Doubt"
If only those times were true
Would it be alright for us to
Let go of the doubts consuming you?
Then I realized, all that said were lies
And we let the words left unsaid
Will it be alright, tonight?
I wish to turn back the time
Stop what was said and done
We're this close from being gone
And then you just walked away
Hoping this heals the pain
Or at least helps keep you sane.
You're standing in front of me
And hoping that it'll make you forget
Now you're filled with regrets
Pinaikot ng kaisipan. Magising pa sana.
Poem #17

"Maling Pagiisip"
Nagulat aking mundo
Sa iyong sinabi
Kung anong gulo
Na ako ay kasali
Maari bang magpaalam
Habang di ka nakatingin
Mababago ba nito
Lahat ng iyong sinabi
Maaaring may naramdaman
Di naaayon sa panalangin
Ang sitwasyong nariyan
Na hindi mo masasabi
Nakakulong ka naman
Sa maling pagiisip
Magising ka pa kaya
Wag lang sanang mahuhuli
Meeting you
You came into my life,
it was unexpected
You made me laugh so hard,
I still hear it
I was so stressed out with my life
Then I saw you and it was a rare sight
I'm not sure what came through
As I approach you, our eyes meet too
Hoping it won't be a creepy deed
That maybe a small talk will do
What are the odds of meeting someone new
Someone to share the same thought too
And sitting by the coffee table
Telling stories about Life, about love
And under the moonlight, as we drive
Would it be alright if I kiss you tonight?
As we say goodbye, return to our lives
What are the odds that I'll meet you again?
