Your touch brings me ripples of excitement
Your voice makes me forget my sleepiness
I crave your hug the way I crave coffee in the morning
I long for your kiss, every minute I utter your name
It’s a strange thing, these feelings you bring
I forget what I went through whenever I hear you say “I love you”
In times of discomfort, your hug I’m sure would be my only cure
And hell I know I wouldn’t sleep properly at night without hearing you say good night
Things have changed ever since you came back
I started to forget every bitterness I said about falling in love
You see, the things I do for you, it’s a new version of me
A version which I think is better than what I used to be
I love you, I’m quite sure of it love
Don’t ask me why, for a day of explaining might not be enough
I love you, can’t you just accept it for now?
Then let’s spend every day showing how we adore each other so much
Iyong mga Mata
Kay sarap titigan
Nakakabighaning pakinggan
Ang mga mensaheng nilalaman
Ng iyong mga matang madalas mong ipikit sa katotohanan
Pigilan mo mang pilit
Itago mo man lahat ng sakit
Sa puso’t isipan ko’y di mawawaglit
Ang mga nakalasaming tuwa, hiya, lungkot at galit
Sa kanila, mukha mo ay kay saya
Binubulag at binibingi mo sila sa iyong mga tawa
Nilulunod mo sila, pati na iyong sarili sa mga kwentong masaya
At sa sobrang galing mong magtago, lahat sila iyong napaniwala
Lahat sila, pero hindi ako
Na sa gitna ng iyong pagtawa, mga mata mo’y lalabo
Sa pagpigil sa mga luha mong pagod na rin sa pagtulo
Na ang bawat biro ay senyales na madalas ay gusto mo na ring sumuko
Ang halakhak, pati palakpak, sumisimbolo ng bawat mong pagkakabigo
At habang lahat sila magiliw na nakikisayaw sa iyong tawa
Naroon ako sa sulok, nagmamasid, at aking nakikita
Na ang iyong mga mata
Isinisigaw nito ang mga salitang pagod ka nang bigkasin pa
Tama na, ayoko na
Tama na, ayoko na
Tama na, ayoko na.
Pangalan Mo
Isinulat ni Kezia Jiao
Pangalan mo, kasing banayag ng relihiyon ko
May kislap sa mga mata ko tuwing nakikita ko ang pangalan mo
pero katulad ng pangalan mo may nagmamay-ari nito
hindi sa akin kundi sa kanya
wala naman akong paki-alam kung sa kanya ka
pero sa tuwing nakikita ko ang pangalan mo
tila parang litratong nagbibigay alaala sa mga sandaling magkasama tayo
Alam ko sa bawat mensaheng natatanggap ko galing sa’yo
walang kislap walang kinang ang mga sagot mo
hindi katulad ng pagtingin ko sa bawat letra ng pangalan mo
Sa tuwing nakikita ko ang pangalan mo lumilitaw sa listahan ng mga mensahe ko
may pintig, may bilis sa tibok ng puso ko hindi mawari hindi maintindihan
pero alam ko sa sarili ko na hangang pangalan lang ako
pangalan mo hangang dun na lang talaga siguro
ayokong umasa dahil alam ko masasaktan lang ako
dito na lang ako sa reyalidad na kung saan ang pangalan mo
ay parang anino ng aking kahapon.
Tell Me
Tell me
what did you see in her
for you to think that
it was better to leave
me, and be with her.
Tell me
does she whisper “I love you”
sweeter than I did
does she hold your hand
tighter, like she is more afraid
to let you go
like her life is unimaginable
without you.
Tell me
does she sing to the songs
you play, does she laugh louder
at your corny jokes, does she
make your coffee as perfect as I did.
Does she even know you love
it when it rains, you loathe it
when the sun touches your skin,
does she take note of these things?
Does she hug you like
it would be the last
does she kiss you when you’re mad,
when you’re down, when
you’re happy, when you least
expect it.
Tell me
what did you see in her
that you did not see in me
does she do things better than
I did, does she love you
more than I did?
Tell me
just tell me these things
just give me reasons
lie or truth, I promise
to believe.
Tell me
just give me something to blame
so I could stop thinking, where
it all went wrong
so I could stop crying at night
blaming myself, blaming you
blaming what I did, blaming
what I said. And I cry even more
knowing that nothing went wrong
you just decided to let go.
