Mal

I've never imagined that I could catch a star

You, a universe that can fit to my hands

Can I, can I keep you to the moon and back?

Just Hurt

Stars up above the night sky

A moon that shines vividly

Clouds that neatly align

Why's my heart still aching

Your warmth was priceless

Yet I feel so worthless

Didn't know if I still deserve to be loved

As I don't know if I know how to love

Despised this burning feeling

As it eats me alive

Wants to scream, to crawl, to sink

Now, badly wants to see you as it makes me calm

You, a knight in shining armor

A wish that was granted

Star that falls into my hand

Dear, immersed me with your light

Hope to escape this cruel world

Ought to close the eyes and ears

Don't want to be stabbed again

So I am asking, would you go with me?

Haven

If ever we're not meant to be;

Looking at your brown eyes

Only exists in a parallel universe

Vivid dreams are still not enough

Every moment feels like

Already written on our palms

Luckily, you choose to stay

Longing for you is such a blessing

On the day I realized

Feeling that was concealed

Your hand is my haven

Over you will never be my option

Upon wishing from the stars

Mellow voice was answered

Astonished as still uncertain if deserved but dear,

Let me shine for you, only you

Hiling

Ang gaan sa pakiramdam tuwing ikaw ay yakap

Kay lambot mo sa palad tuwing hahaplusin

Gusto kang hawakan nang punong ingat

Nais iparamdam kung gaano kita pinahahalagahan

Madalas malambing, minsa'y nagsusungit

Ikaw ay maamo pero may pagkakataong mailap

At kapag naman ay ika'y natutulog

O kay payapang pagmasdan

Sa tuwing ikaw ay kinukulit

Hindi mapigilang manggigil

Talagang mahal kita, sobra

Pasensya na kung ako ma'y nakakasakit na

Kung sakaling aalis ka man

Tanging hiling na lagi kang bumalik

Hindi ko kayang tulayang mawalay ka sa'kin

Kulang ang tahanan kung ikaw ay di uuwi

Adore You

The first thing I've noticed

is how the way you look at me changed

It's mesmerizing, my dear

that's one of my favorites

Also, I love when you hold my waist

Your delicate touch as if I'm a fragile one

On the contrary, I like your tickles

It makes me feel that you want me

When you sing me a song that makes me asleep

And your morning voice every time you wake up

Your "I love you's" are sweet music to my ears

Want to hug you for you to know I'm always here

Every time you wipe my mouth when eating

When you carry my bag or gave me vitamins

Every time I receive sweet notes, or poems

Can't help but smile that can reach to my ears

So grateful that you found me

And please know that I'm delighted

Those little things showed how much you cared

Never ever failed to make my heart fluttered

Even sometimes you can't handle your actions

That can make me unreasonably jealous

Or in some times, hurt me

No worries, as every story has flaws

I love how thoughtful you are

I love your clinginess

I love your efforts, your patience; you

I love all of you

Ikasampu

Anim na buwan nang makilala ka

Di alam kung kailan nag-umpisa

Nagsimula lang sa mga biruan

Di inakalang aabot sa totohanan

Dati, laging tawanan ang maririnig

Sa tuwing tinutukso tayo sa isa't-isa

Kaya lang, umabot ako sa punto na

Di na mawari ang biro at hindi

Isang gabi bigla ka na lang nakausap

Hindi namalayan na umabot magdamag

Gabi-gabi ikaw na lagi ang katuwang

Hanggang mag-umaga'y ikaw pa rin ang hanap

Sa bawat pinakita mong kilos

Unti-unti na palang naaapektuhan

Hindi na rin mapigilan ang kilig

Sadyang kinikimkim lang ang damdamin

Alam kong makasalanan akong tao

Maling maramdaman ang ganitong saya

Kaya pinilit na lang umalis at lumayo

Ngunit di nakayanan, babalik at babalik pa rin

Lahat ng daan ay patungo sa'yo

Hinding-hindi maliligaw hangga't ikaw ang kasama

Hindi pa rin ako makapaniwala hanggang ngayon

Posible pala na ang panaginip ay maging isang realidad

Habang naglalakad sa mahabang daan

Tanging paborito ay hawakan ang iyong kamay

Ika'y hindi ko na kayang mawala

Kaya aking kapit hihigpitan na

Dati'y pangarap ko lang

Na maranasan ang iyong hagkan at halik

Ngayon ay ito na ay isa sa aking mga paborito

Sinta, ako'y patuloy pang nahuhulog sayo

Nang tinanong mo ako noong gabing iyon

Kung maaari ka bang maging aking manunuyo

Walang mapagsidlan ang galak na nadarama

Tinago ko ito, pilit hindi ipahalata sayo

Pakiramdam pa ri'y nabubuhay sa isang panaginip

Di inaasahang magkakaroon nga ng "ikaw" at "ako"

Dahil sa ikasampung taludtod na ito

Nais ipaalam na ibinibigay ko na ang aking "oo"

Oo

 Sa bawat hampas ng hangin

Lamig nanunuot sa'ting mga balat

Daang madilim dahil kay lalim na ng gabi

Ngunit walang madamang takot dahil kasama ka

Iyong labi ang aking paborito

Nadadala ako nito sa isang maala-perpektong panaginip

Panaginip, sandali, hindi na nga pala panaginip

Dahil ang imposible, ginawa nating posible

Hindi ko akalaing aabot tayo sa ganito

Na magiging ikaw at ako

Na mabubuo ang salitang tayo

Tama ka sinta, binibigay ko na ang aking "oo"

Isa sa Isang Libo

Hindi mapigilan bugso ng damdamin

Mga puso'y ayaw magpaawat sa pag-alab

Nakakapaso, nakakaadik ganitong pakiramdam

Sa iisipin ng iba, wala ng pakiaalam

Sa tuwing kasama ka

Hinihiling na segundo'y maging minuto

Oras sana'y bumagal ang takbo

Giliw, ngayong gabi pakiusap wag nang matapos

Wari mo'y aking titig nakakalunod

Labi mo nama'y labis na nakakatunaw

Haplos na nagbibigay init

Nagsusumigaw, dama ang pagkauhaw

Ano kayang pakiramdam

Labi'y lumapat sa'king leeg

Kamay babaybay sa manipis na bewang

At yayapusin na parang walang bukas

Patawarin mo rin sana

Sa mga pabaon kong kalmot

Hindi mapigilan ang sarili

Dulot ng saya at pananabik

T'wing titingin sa iyong mga mata

Nababasa ko ang sinasamo nito

Kaya mas lalong nakakaakit

Bawat galaw, kakaibang sensasyong madarama

Hangad kong kumapit sa iyong buhok

Sa tuwing labi'y magkalapat

Gustong iparamdam na iyo lang ako

At sinta, akin lang sana 'yang mga labi mo

Nais munang dahan-dahanin

Bawat ugali aalamin

Bawat haplos kakabisaduhin

Bawat halik lalasapin

Pero alam mo ba anong aking paborito

Iyong banayad mong halik

Dahil nang gabing iyon naramdaman

Na ikaw ang isang sigurado sa isang-libong duda

Nicotine

My beloved Nicotine

You're so addictive

Even I know it's a misdeed

It is still tempting

One taste is already enough

For me to long for more

I was forbidden

But still want you

I've tried to stop

Yet I found myself coming back

I need to limit myself

Needed to keep my distance

But my demons inside

Are keep screaming

Depleting the space

Craving your presence

Maybe, just maybe

Cherishing the times

Times that I can steal

And living the moments

Borrowed from kismet

The end is already written

In the book I'm leading

It's not a fairy tale

Nor happy ending

But I know, I am sure

The pain will be worth it

Heartbeat

That time when our lips sealed

My heart was crazily pounding

Beating so fast, racing with the wind

Hoping that time would stop for us

I sensed you feel the same way

Can you hear my heartbeat that night?

Hope you don't cause it beats for you

Though not wanting for you to know

Already knew that this was a sin

An unforgivable crime

So thrilling, makes me thirst for you

Why is it hard, can we just be caught?

Inakala

Ang hirap pala

Kasalanang maging masaya

Bakit ba kasi bawal

Pakinggan ang pintig ng puso

Sa bawat ikot ng alak

At sa tanong na binabato

Para akong nasusunog

Napapaso sa sariling liwanag

Katotohanang tatanggapin

Na hanggang panaginip na lang

Ngayo'y naguguluhan

Nais lumisan, gustong mawala

Lumayo, siguro'y ang sagot

Dahil tama nga naman

Hindi pwede, hindi tayo pwede

Bakit pa ba ipipilit

Kung walang handang sumugal

Sa mga salitang narinig mula sayo

Inakala ko lang pala

Na kahit papaano may pag-asa

Buong gabing nag-isip

Dala ang bigat kinaumagahan

Pilit na mga ngiti

Puno ng lungkot ang mga mata

Nanghihina, walang gana

Dahil kahit anong tago

Masakit, naninikip

Hiling na kung pwede lang

Kahit ngayong araw lang

Sana puso'y magmanhid

Eclipse

Wanting to see you is my only wish

Whenever I go to bed to rest

Always hoping that one day

I'll get to sleep wrapped in your arms

Giving light is our gift

Special in our own ways

We give happiness and hope

Sometimes blinding, sometimes serene

As I live on how I'm destined

Already used to it

Even I keep bleeding

Makes me weak, wants to faint

Then one day, lucky to get a chance

To be with you for a moment

Thinking no one, just ourselves

Cherishing every minute, seconds

I knew that this will not last

Expected that you'll just come by

So now as I watched your back, leaving

Why is my heart still hurting that much?

Sinful Fondness

Every time we play

I can't help but imagine

Wondering what's the feeling

You embracing me while playing

Every time we walk

I can't help but think

Wondering what's the feeling

If I hold your hand while walking

Every time we sing

I can't help but smile

Wondering what's the feeling

You singing lullabies while I'm sleeping

Every time we talk

I can't help but look at your lips

Wondering what's the feeling

When your lips touch mine

Every time I think of you

I can't help it, it beautifully wrecks me

Already knew that all of these thoughts and wonders

Will always be the same,

Thoughts and wonders

Alarm Clock

Ulan, o kay sarap pagmasdan

Bawat patak ay sinusundan

Giliw, kapag kasama ka anong saya

Sumayaw, magtampisaw tayo sa ilalim ng ulan

Hagkan na matagal kong inasam

Na akala ko'y pangarap lang

Para 'kong nabuhay sa panaginip

Ayoko nang magising kung ikaw ay mawawalay sa'kin

Teka lang, pakiusap

Pwede bang limang minuto pa?

Teka lang, pwede ba

Kaso heto ako gigising na

Libra

I didn't deserve to be looked at

I didn't deserve to be cared about

I didn't deserve the compliments

I didn't deserve to be loved

But why I can't help but feel happy 

When you looked at me, when you cared

When I hear your compliments

When I felt loved

I didn't deserve it, I don't want to

Yet my heart is still yearning for more

Please make it stop, please don't

Please leave me alone, please wait

I can't but I want to

I can but I wouldn't

Wanting to curse myself as I let you drowned in me

And curse you for making me drawn to you

If only I'm egocentric

I want to be held by you

I'm longing for you

But I am not

There's a thin line I really can't cross

Frankly, the guilt within is killing me

Nevertheless, you keep me alive

Can't you see? I'm just an antagonist that needs to be defeated

I already know I'm the worse, no one can change that

This sin, maybe karma will haunt me after time

Am I ready? I don't think so

You didn't deserve me, I am sure

But if I wished on a meteorite to forgive me one thing

That I'll do but never regret

Want to embrace you until sunrise

And feel your warmth one last time

Bittersweet

Babe, how I love to hear this word came from your lips

Then I'll call you My Love, to make you feel that I am yours

Bittersweet, that's the title of our book

Bitter and sweet, why is this feeling making me out of control

Every time you brushed my hair, it makes me feel calm

Every time I hold your hand, I wished we can play all night

Staring at the blank streets, beside you felt special

Almost perfect, 'til I realized you were never mine

Tracing your face using the tip of my fingers

Then a crazy thought passed through my mind

If I kissed you, will it be okay?

Will the time stop for us or we should be the ones who need to stop?

Borrowed time is all that we got

Dreaming that one day, everything turned upside down

Just so you know, I'm on the verge of falling

But if I fall, would you be there waiting?

Find myself cursing the wind on a gloomy night

Asking why I didn't meet you beforehand

Maybe we were together, maybe we weren't

But at least taking risks was not restrained

I'm glad that I met you at the same time sad that I can't have you

Maybe we can be together, maybe we can't

Full of maybes but one thing I am certain

Being contented I think, that's the storyline of our tale

Bakit Hindi?

Sa bawat oras na kasama ka

Ako'y nabubuhay sa mundong puno ng lumbay at saya

At sa tuwing tumitingin sa iyong mga mata

Nais itanong, ganoon ka rin ba?

Matamis na mapait

Masarap pero masakit

Bakit naman kay hapdi

Pinapakinggang mga kantang para sa'kin

Kung pwede lang ang mga pinagbabawal

At ating tadhana'y hindi tututol

Kung papayagan lang ng pagkakataon

Bakit hindi? Bakit hindi.

Sampung Taludtod

Una,

Unang araw kitang nakita

Nakatanaw ako mula sa aking mesa

Dahil sa dilaw na ilaw, hindi ko maaninag ang iyong mukha

Kaya t-shirt na suot mo na lang ang tanging natandaan

Pangalawa,

Pangalawang beses na nang masilayan ka

Dahil mananatili ka na sa amin, di ko lang sigurado kung pansamantala o matagalan

Binati agad kita, pero wala akong nakuhang sagot

Hindi ko alam kung ika’y nahihiya kaya sinuri ko na lamang ang iyong mukha

Tatlo,

Tatlong segundo akong tumitig sayo

At nakuha agad ng mga mata mo ang atensyon ko

Kayumanggi kaya masarap titigan

Pero mukha kang suplado kaya huwag na lang

Apat,

Apat na beses na yata akong napapaisip kung ako ba ang magsisimula ng usapan

Nahihiya ako pero bahala na

Sinimulan ko sa tanong na “Kamusta ka?”

At mabuti naman ay sumagot ka na

Lima,

Hindi ko alam bakit pa patuloy akong nagbibilang

Siguro dahil sa lagpas limang tagay na ng alak nang mapagtripan tayo ng mga kasama

At magmula tuloy ng gabing iyon na di ko malilimutan

Tayo na ang naging bida sa mga asaran

Anim,

Siguro sa isang araw, anim na beses tayong tinatambal sa isa’t-isa

Pagkabukas ko pa lang ng pinto papasok, iyon na agad ang bumungad

Nagulat ako pero nakisabay sa agos

Lalo na nang makita kong ganoon ka rin at masaya naman ang lahat

Pito

Hindi ko alam kung bakit mahilig tayo sa laro

At di ko rin alam kung bakit tayo ang pinakapaborito

Dahil sa isang laro, parang naramdaman ko ang daplis ng iyong labi sa akin

Pito, pitong minuto kong inisip kung guni-guni ko lang ba iyon o talagang totoo

Walo

Sa tuwing alas-otso na kami umuuwi,

Palagi mo akong sinasabihang "Ingat ka," kadugtong ang aking pangalan

Masarap sa pandinig pero di mapigilang magsimula nang maguluhan

Hindi na alam kung saan lulugar sa pagitan ng totoo at mga biro

Siyam,

Siyan na araw na lang ang nalalabi bago matapos ang inyong kontrata

Ayoko, ayoko pang mawala ka dahil hirap man akong aminin sa sarili

Malulungkot ako, hindi sanay na wala ka

Kaya naman araw-araw na akong pumapasok para masulit habang nandiyan ka pa

Sampu,

Huling taludtod ko na pala, masyadong mahaba kaya tapusin ko na

Hindi ko alam kung hanggang kailan tayo ganito

Alam kong nakatayo ako sa gilid ng bangin ng walang kasiguraduhan

Ngunit gusto ko lang malaman mo, na masaya ako

Masaya ako sa oras na nakakausap ka

Masaya ako kapag kasama ka

Masaya ako kaya malaking pasasalamat ko na nakilala kita

Kismet

Every time our  eyes met

It felt surreal

I'm drowning when I looked at yours

Suffocating yet calming

Noticing your secret gazes

I just want to melt as I'm bothered by how I look or act

And each time you've complimented I

It's just that, why your medium is to make me feel special?

You're like an expensive and exquisite artwork

I really want to keep but can't

So if passing by every day just to see your beauty, it's okay

Maybe I'm just destined to be here on where am I

We're really unluckily lucky

Met at the wrong time maybe

But still, contented our path crossed

It's my pleasure to know you more

If ever fate was our comrade

Guess I already crossed the line

The barrier I'd made to keep the distance

Preventing self to stumble and fall
