RANDOM SHITS

[literarhi]

Sana magising tayo sa parehong araw.

Dalawang taong magkasama, pikit-matang nakaharap sa isa't-isa at pilit nananatili sa nakasanayan nila.

Bangungot ba 'to o isang pantasya? Hindi ko alam, basta, kasama kita.

Kung bangungot man ito at magising ka, sana sabay tayong dalawa... para hindi ako maiwan mag-isa.

Kung pantasya ito, gumising tayong dalawa at gawin nating totoo ang pinapangarap ng iba.

Ramdam ko ang unti-unting pagmulat ng aking mata pero pilit isinasarado sa takot na tuluyang mawala tayo. Pwede bang hintayin mo'ko magising? Huwag natin iwan ang isa't-isa sa nakaraan at pangarap na binuo nating dalawa.

"Sana magising tayo sa parehong araw," bulong ko sa sarili habang nangingilid ang mga luha.

Love is not a switch.

Loving someone isn't like flipping a switch – it can't be turned on or off anytime you want.

Yes, love is a choice, but it's not one you make with a single decision overnight. Love is a result of multiple repeated decisions that we choose to make.

To love someone means to choose them all over again... even on days when it feels tedious.

And... I hope you choose to love me every day, as I choose to love you too.

"Galit ako... pero salamat dahil nakilala kita."

I was filled with hatred, so much that I even questioned God: "Why let me experience love if you'll take it away?"

Sanay akong mag-isa, but God always had a way of surprising me; binigay ka niya sa'kin.

We met at the most unexpected time of my life, and you showed me the ways I never knew love existed; it was beautiful.

Masaya. Magaan sa pakiramdam.

Pero may hangganan ang lahat.

Nung nawala ka, nakaramdam ako ng malaking puwang... na para bang may kulang kahit na dati ko naman 'tong kinasanayan.

Galit ako dahil sana nagsama tayo nang mas matagal, pero salamat dahil kahit sa sandaling panahon, ipinaramdam mo sa'kin ang saya ng pagkakaroon ng kasama.

Sana mabigyan ulit tayo nang pagkakataon, kung saan handa tayong dalawa.

"Ano kayang plano ni Bathala sa'ting dalawa?"

Natutulala sa'ming sala sa pag-iisip kung pa'no na tayong dalawa. 'Di namamalayang tumutulo na ang mga luha habang binabagabag ng tanong, "May pag-asa pa kayang maayos 'tong mga problema?"

Ibang klaseng ginhawa ang madarama sa pagsasama nating dalawa ngunit ano kayang plano ni Bathala? Nalilito ako sa daloy ng tadhana dahil ang dating saya'y unti-unting nawawala.

Kahit may hinanakit, ito nama'y dagling napapawi sa simpleng kalabit ng gitara. Napapapikit na lamang upang pigilan ang pag-iyak sa ating sinapit. Ang masungit kong asta'y umaamo sa sa himig ng harana.

Ipagpapaubaya na lang sa nakatataas kung magiging tayo ba sa wakas. Pagod na akong magpanggap na malakas kahit bawat gabi'y nag uunahan ang mga luha ko sa pag-alpas.

Mananatili kahit puno ng pag-aalinlangan. Magsusugal kahit ngayon lang.

[literarhi]

I wish I was another girl; I love everything about others but nothing about me.

I search my reflection in the mirror with hopes that I'll find something lovable but I found nothing but flaws.

Not a single day went by where I didn't wish I was a another girl because maybe life would easier if I was a bit prettier.

Why do I seem to appreciate other people's beauty but now my own? I find everyone lovely but me..as if implying that there's nothing to see.

"A passion once lost is hard to rekindle."

I'm losing myself all over again when I tried so hard to love the life I'm living.

I don't know how it happened too, I simply found myself stopping all the things I used to love — poetry & photography. To say I'm miserable without the things that made me feel alive is an understatement.

I'm trying to relight the fire in me — the one that pushed me to achieved great things — but I no longer seem to care; I simply want to live.

Do you feel alive or are you simply existing?

it's crazy how I seem to appreciate other people's beauty but not my own; as if implying there's nothing to see.

"The truth is—two loves will never be the same."

A person's first love will always play a key role in all the love that may come to their life, they will be the basis and standard of it.

But resist the urge to compare the people that left you and the love that will come to your life. You can't make a space in your heart for the love you deserve if someone else's ghost is still there.

Don't look for the love you once had in others because no two love is the same, each is different and beautiful in their own way.

And although being someone's first is considered special...to be someone's greatest and last love is even more special.

Inspired by Gentle Reminder

[literarhi]

how can you love someone you don't fully know? their dreams, hobbies and their way of thinking...makes me question how these people even define "love".

rainstorm || 17 Feb 23

[literarhi]

there are a thousand ways to say "I love you", but those are still not enough to express how much I love you.

[literarhi]

"Minsan gusto niya ako, minsan, hindi. Nakakalito siya."

Nakakalito ba talaga siya o hindi mo lang kayang tanggapin na hindi na ikaw? A person who's in love will do great and impossible things just to please their partner. So if love is so great and powerful, why could it not make a simple message clear? Bakit nakakalito ang mga kilos at salita nila?

Maybe it's because of the trauma and fears that they have but that would mean that they're not ready. Entering a relationship while dealing with unhealed wounds will either worsen it or be passed on to your partner.

"Words without actions are meaningless and actions without words are confusing."

Inspired by W, J, and thousands of youngsters' confused thoughts.

[literarhi]

"Mabilis mawala ang feelings ko. Gusto ko mga hard to get, gusto ko ng thrill."

With the time I have in hand, I couldn't help but wonder. Is one lady not enough? Why do you like three to four girls? You've changed, from liking one woman for years to liking a different woman each month or, worse, each week. Have your "mayabang" and "fuckboi" friends influenced you?

It's fun to be thrilled but is love all about that? Is "thrill" the basis for liking someone?

When "thrill" is gone, what happens next?

rainstorm || 28 Dec 22

Inspired by two different yet similar guys.

[literarhi]

"gusto kitang makausap kahit wala tayong mapag-usapan."

I want our actions to speak more than our words can. Your presence is enough. Just two people in a moment of peaceful silence embracing each other.

May our actions speak for us when we're too tired to open our mouths.

Inspired by J's feelings for N

"I wonder when this feeling first arose in me...A feeling that overwhelms the admiration and the respect... Something so much greater...Love."

"The reason why I didn't feel a wall between Kazehaya-kun and me...is because he breaks it down easily with a single smile."
