fall

you can't keep on falling forever.
in the end you will reach the ground and break your bones.

you can't keep on falling into nothing,
for if so, you would yourself be nothing
constantly dreaming
your fall will not mean anything
but a senseless escape into the abyss which will embrace you forever.

you can't keep on falling,
for if you do, what will become of tomorrow?
your flight will be your trap.
and you will never fly again.

you can't keep on falling forever,
for time will be of no consequence,
moments will be wasted,
life gambled away.

almost

The sound of waves crashing;
Feet under the sand;
Waiting for sunrise;
Keeping our eyes from failing.

Lungs full of breezes from other islands;
Hearts drunk, almost addicted;
Mind swimming through thoughts;
Souls touching, hands barely moving.

And yet there are no drums in the background;
A half-fulfilled fantasy,
Of two people mating,
Learning
Loving

kia

I pity you.
The world will either hate you or use you.

They will hate you,
Because you know it all.
You raise your hand,
Answer the question,
And get praised.
Their eyes speak when you speak:
Their disapproval.


They will use you,
Because you know it all.
They squeeze you dry,
Answer the question,
And get praised.
Their mouths laugh when you laugh:
A mockery.

Then they'd say they could if they wanted to outshine you;
But they're too important to lift a finger;
Be thankful.

Keep me naked, for if not we'd be strangers,
Kiss me with your song, touch me with your breath,
Rob me of my sanity, consume me.
Take me and I'll fly.

Fighting and losing.
I thought we were meant to win.
We're broken, lost into each other,
Inside we burn, we fall, we crash.

Aaaah! You hurt me. Don't hurt me.
We fall.
We burn.
We crash.

In my head you play over... and over.
You owned me, you lost me.
We crash, we cry, we ache.
You lost me.

We feel, and then nothing.
Too much, too little.
You hurt me, don't hurt me.
We're lost.
I lost you.

I'm sorry.

Dila

Maganda siya, morena,
Nakakaaliw kasama.
Pero parang tinik ang dila niya.
Nang namalayan mo, dumudugo ka na.
Pero hindi niya ata sadya,
Ganun lang siya talaga,
Kaso ang sakit hindi na mabubura,
Takpan na lng para 'di niya makita.
