Stupid attempt to write a Filipino poem (for the first time in years!) after getting inspired to try something new. I noticed that all my poems were in English, so I attempted to write in Filipino instead. It sucks, I know...pagbigyan nalang kasi first time naman eh. Haha

Nakatulala sa hangin
Parang isang tanga
Hindi alam kung anong gagawin
Kung ikaw ay aking makita

Hindi alam kung anong sasabihin
Kung ikaw ay minsang lumapit
Nahihiya, hindi makatingin
Di makasalita, parang boses ay naipit

Hindi ko maintindihan kung bakit ba ganun
Sana'y magkaroon ng himala
Pero malay mo ito'y mangyari
Pagkatapos nitong tula

I have this weird habit of staring blankly into space. It's during these moments when I think a lot about life and the like. Oh, and sometimes I think of shallow thoughts when I stare into space. If I'm not thinking of a shallow thought, I'm busy making a poem in my head (but sometimes I find it hard to write down all those words--which could be quite frustrating at times). Ohwell Schmell. To my dearest dear happy crush, this is for you (haha).

Staring into empty space
As I try to remember
The first time I started liking you
Was way back in November

Staring into empty space
Grinning like a fool
All because you smiled at me
While we were playing it cool

Staring into empty space
With thoughts of you in my head
All because you gave me THAT look
That made me turn all red

Staring into empty space
With your voice ringing in my ear
Even though you seem so far away
Somehow, in my heart, you are near

Staring into empty space
Longing to see you once again
Mysterious, charming and smart
You're the reason why I haven't given up on men

Staring into empty space
With a sad truth I see
For deep inside I feel
That there can never be a "you and me"

Yet another happy moment with my happy crush. This is why I enjoy going to school (hehe I was kidding). My dear happy crush, you RAWK! You made my day. hihihihi

Did you know that you made my day
When you smiled at me today?
I could not help but grin and blush
Knowing that that smile came from my happy crush

I thought I'd never see your face
Because I searched in almost every place
As fate would put it, I bumped into you
I was ecstatic, as my infatuation for you grew

You were alone, frowning, walking so slowly
I thought that you wouldn't notice me
But when you saw me your face lit up (you smiled)
And that moment simply made my day worthwhile

Tomorrow (hopefully) I'll be seeing you
If I see you, I wouldn't know what to do
I could be happy, because I know you're there
But I could be sad because I don't know if you care

I am excited to meet you once again
To see once more, a smile you don't give people often
To hear your adorable laughter and voice
And feel your personality, that separates you from the boys

I look forward to spending more time with you
And I hope, somehow, you feel the same way, too!

Sometimes some people could be a bunch of bullshitters that shoot a lot of bullshit (haha). Sometimes we're sick and tired of feeling used. I thought of making a poem that was directly addressed to the bullshitters of my life (and your life). This one's out to all my friends who feel this way at times and to all those people who can relate.

I don't deserve you because
You tend to avoid my eyes
And what makes it worse is that you're not
Honest even when I can see through your lies

I don't deserve you because I can see
In love you're spineless and desperate
Because you're hungry for love you fail to see
That it is true love that waits

I don't deserve you because you are
A coward who's seldom real with me
I thought you were true, but then I was wrong
So now I feel betrayed, can't you see?

I don't deserve you because you say
You care but you never do
You treat me like some chewed-up toy
But it seems like you don't have a clue.

I don't deserve you because you're you...

Enough said.

I deserve better.

You told me you loved me
You told me that you cared
So how come when I needed you the most
You weren't even there?

Insanely happy. Happily crushing since second sem. He's so cute especially with glasses. Mwehehehe Some silly little rhyming poem I made up to pass the time. Enjoy!

I've got a little secret
I've got a little crush
When I simply think of him
My brain turns into mush.

I've got a little secret
YOU are my happy crush
When you simply pass me by
I cannot help but blush.

I've got a little secret
I have a crush on you
And I hope and pray that you
Don't have the slightest clue.

I've got a little secret
My heart skips a beat
Sometimes when I'd talk to you
I'd look down at my feet.

I've got a little secret
And this secret will stay with me
I look forward to school tomorrow
For I know it might be you I'll see! ^^

Here in my heart you'll find teardrops that glisten
If only you had been there, for once, just to listen
But sometimes you forget or get caught up with so many things
That you begin to lose touch of almost everything
So here I am, embarking on a new journey
All alone? Who knows? Just you wait and see
If you want to come along this ride with me
Like what I've done, drop your baggages, and set yourself free.
