As Of This Writing

It's almost iconic
A perennial cycle of what separates
23:59 from 00:01 
my dreams mustered 
into a legion of reality
the day before
the day that is now
i look at you
let's.

Ask Me

Well, I don’t know
It’s fast and it’s slow
We take two steps forward
And then one back so hard

I guess we be in denial
Trying to stay under the radar
Well, love, I don’t know
It’s fast and it’s slow

The universe may have conspired
To test the weak and love-fired
Silence, well, I don’t know
My love, it’s fast and it’s slow

Siya


Dahil umuulan,
Emo ako.
Susunggaban ko
Ang pagkakataong
Ito na emo ako.
Susulatin ko ang bawat
Diwang 
Hindi ko
Masabi sa iyo.
Gusto kita.
Crush kita.
Kung alam mo lamang
Abot hanggang tainga
Ang ngiti ko
Kapag kausap ka,
Kapag may text ka.
Binabaha ako ng
Bawat saglit
Na ninanais kong tayo.
Tayo, 
Tayo,
Tayo.
Dahil...
Ang totoo, 
Mayroon ng...

"Siya".

Friend Zone



Minsan,
Hindi mo alam.
Ayaw mong alamin.
Iyon na pala iyon.
Kadalasan,
Patay-malisya ka.
Deadma.
Walang keber.
At ngayong naisip
Mo na pwede pala
Maagaw,
Masayang,
Maligaw,
Ikaw ay titingala.
Sa langit.
Sa kisame.
Sa kanya.

Habiin mo itong mga
Salita...
Baka sakali, 
Baka sakali lamang
Ang pagsinta
Ay masilaban.

Kunwari

And I care for you-

movies,
picnics,
letters.

I feel close to you-

but, then

a zephyr,
a scheme,
an experiment.

Love, let us conspire.

go,
go,
go.

When you know,
I will remain unmoved.

Sagradong Alas-Tres

Hay.
Naiisip na naman kita.
Ang kulay mo
pampagising sa antukin
kong diwa.
Ang iyong amoy -
nakakagigil.

Bawat dampi ng
labi ko sa iyo,
Bawat tikim,
palaging parang
pers taym.

Alas-tres na.
Hindi ako mapakali.
Nais na kitang tikman.
Nakakapangilabot ang
imahe mo.
Hindi ka mawala sa aking isipan.

Bababa na.
Alas-tres na.
"Manang, isang Magnum nga po."

Happy Thought

Well, you see, you are a happy thought. And you have become one without knowing it. You are clueless. And I shall keep it that way.
