3D Rant

I think that I shall never see

A 2D movie converted to 3D...

For My Dear Friend...

2010-01-20T17:00:00.005+01:00

Breaking free from the norm
To take the road less-traveled.
While the know-it-alls around me
Speak of horrors along that way.
Yet I took the road anyway
With some hesitation in my mind.
And then I find you taking the same route,
So I joined you, thinking, "Why not?"

Not long after, I see for myself
The horrors they talk about.
But you dealt with those hurdles
And stayed cool, calm and collected.
And in awe, we find along the way
Certain wonders the others knew not.
Those rewards that you can only get
After overcoming the hurdles you encounter.

It was a wild roller-coaster ride,
That's how you make me feel.
And crazy as it sounds,
I'll do it all over again.
Because it is rare to find people
Who could make me feel alive.
It makes me thank my lucky stars
That your path crossed mine.

Happy birthday!

Pasensya Na

2010-01-10T15:15:00.006+01:00

Pasensya ka na
Kung di na ko nagpakita.
Ako ay natataranta
Sa tuwing naaalala
Mga luhang hindi sadya
Na sa iyo'y ipakita
Nung huli tayong magkasama.

Paalam na aking sinta.
Huwag masyadong mag-alala.
Muli tayong magkikita.

Dream Interrupted

2010-01-08T16:18:00.001+01:00

It's been a while since I
Wore my heart on my sleeve.
I already stopped playing the game some time ago.
I never realized
How refreshing it was
To deal with the unexpected and illogical.
But the dream is over,
The sun is almost up.
Soon it is time to wake up and face reality.
And here I am wishing
For the day to end soon,
Hoping for a part 2 of the interrupted dream.

Dazed

2010-01-04T01:50:00.001+01:00

So this is how it feels
To be pleasantly surprised
When you pulled me into your arms.

So this is how it feels
To forget everything else
And wishing that time will stand still.

So this is how it feels
To finally let you go
Because it is time to part ways.

Awe.
Bliss.
Pain.

And now,
Dazed.

This is the year

2009-10-31T08:39:00.002+01:00

This is the year...
...when Murphy's law bites you in the ass.
...when all roads leading to your destination are blocked.
...when you want to give up, but failing is not an option.

This is the year...
...when egos are crushed and selfish desires are curbed.
...when things you take for granted suddenly disappear forever.
...when your world falls apart, but you are not allowed to fall with it.

But this is also the year...
...when you learn something new each day.
...when being lost means discovering something wonderful.
...when things go spectacularly wrong, and yet somehow it makes sense.

This is the year of contradictions
And finding the proper balance.

Sawa na ko

2009-08-20T14:44:00.003+02:00

Bawat bitiwang salita,
Sobrang nakakairita.
Di man lang nakahalata,
Ika'y nakaka-abala?

Sinong nagsabi sa iyo
Na magkaibigan tayo,
Para utusan mo ako
Na waring may utang sa iyo?

Di ka masyadong kilala.
Utang na loob, asa pa!
At kung ganyan ka umasta,
Ha! Wala kang mapapala.

Di tayo magkakasundo
Kung lagi na lang ganito.
Kaya para walang gulo,
Pwede bang lubayan ako?

Pagtatalo ng Dalawang Katauhan

2009-07-02T19:07:00.003+02:00

POV #1:

Ayan ka na naman,
Pagkagising sa umaga
Mas una mo pang tiningnan
Laman ng Facebook at iba pa.

Sa RC, ano ba ang napala mo
Ngayong level 10 na ang dish mo?
May mangyayari bang kakaiba
Kung lumaki na ang iyong Mafia?

May trabaho kang kailangang gawin,
Simulan mo na ngayon din!
Kung hindi, buburahin ko
Ang lahat ng pinaghirapan mo.

POV #2:

Aba, aba, magtigil ka nga!
Akala mo kung sino ka.
Bakit tula ang nasa isip mo?
Di ba nasayang din ang oras mo?

Imbes na matematika ang iniisip mo,
Mga salita ang pinaglalaruan mo.
Kung iisipin mo, pareho lang tayo.
Tigilan mo na ang kalokohan mo.

Distant

2009-04-22T17:32:00.015+02:00

Even in my dream last night, you are distant.
I tried to come closer to you, but I can't.
Consciousness came back as I reached out for you,
Left me staring at the ceiling, feeling blue.

That moment between dream and reality,
Desperately called out for you to come to me.
Seconds after the illusion faded out,
Was wondering if you even heard me shout.

I have always said that it does not matter
What you think of me, I'll love you forever.
But at that instant when you did not look back,
I don't know how to put my life back on track.

My subconscious said, "This is a reminder.
You'll have to deal with this sooner or later."

Breaking the Calmness

2009-04-14T19:33:00.008+02:00

I've known since time immemorial
That you never did like me.
"Why is that?" I wondered.
But it's just you, isn't it?

And yet we tolerate each other
For reasons unfathomable.
I'd like to think there's no need
To declare open war on each other.

Frankly, I don't care
What you say about me.
But if you insult the ones I care about,
Draw your sword and fight me!

Great! Look at what you've done.
My temper flared once more.
Thank God we're far apart
Must remind myself to wait, again.

Karma will come to you eventually,
That's all I can say at the moment.
If not, then when I return
I swear I will set things right.

I Miss You

2009-04-14T17:17:00.002+02:00

How is it possible?
From afar, you are able
To calm my troubled mind.
Be my light so I may find
The way back to sanity,
And see once more the beauty
Of the path I chose to follow,
And forget all the sorrow.

My love, come back to me.
I miss you already.

Ayoko na ng math

2009-04-08T11:38:00.002+02:00

Bakit ka kasi,
lagi na lang tayo di nagkakaintindihan?
Hindi pa tapos yung isyu dati,
ngayon may bago na naman.

Nung una kitang makilala, hindi ka ganyan.
Mahirap kang intindihin, pero kaya kitang sabayan.
Lintek ka, buong buhay ko binigay ko na sa iyo,
Ano pa ba ang gusto mo?

Para sa iyo, laro lang lahat ng ito.
Pero di na ko natutuwa sa iyo.
Nakita ko na ang tunay na kulay mo.
Pinapagod mo lang ako.

Ako’y isa’t kalahating tanga
para kumbinsihin ang iba na mahalin ka.

Ayoko na sa iyo.
Break na tayo.

Hoping for Nothing

2009-03-13T21:23:00.001+01:00

If you only knew
What you’ll put me through,
Would you have done things dif’rently?
Would you run and hide,
Or cast me aside?
Would you ignore me completely?

It is kind of weird
That I’ve always feared
That you’ll go away forever.
I’m afraid to show
How I love you so.
Scared of what will happen after.

I finally tried
To say what’s inside,
To confess my feelings before.
That time you told me
That this cannot be.
You love me as a friend, not more.

Didn’t go as planned,
But I understand
Why we couldn’t be together.
Even though this heart
Has been torn apart,
I long for you more than ever.

Forgive me if I
Can’t let this love die.
Guess I’ll stay this way forever.
Crazy, you may say.
It’s the only way
I can pull myself together.

Surprise, surprise!

2009-03-08T19:39:00.004+01:00

Oh my, what is this?
The air in Paris

Inspires me to write
Verses left and right.

Going to hysterics,
Screw the mathematics!

I’ll just while away the time
Maybe thinking of a rhyme,

Until I find…
Bah, never mind.

Just think of this as practice,
Lest my English go amiss.

Time Leap

2009-03-05T11:40:00.005+01:00

I wish I could do
a time leap,
To go back to where it all began,
To see whether this moment
can be undone,
To find out what happens
if I chose the other path.

I wish I could do
a time leap,
To go forward, see what will happen,
To figure out if I
chose the right path,
To skip all the bad things
that are happening to me.

But alas,
I’m stuck in the present.
