Juliet

Everyone has said,
Drop him.
So why,
Do I feel like dying?
Each time
I think
Of following them,
Instead of you?

Last Order

Isa pang round ng alak,
At sigarilyo,
Para tumagal ang oras,
Kapiling mo.

Adam

Arm yourself with your weakness,
And explore the earth,
So you can give back to it,
When the time is right.

So show me your world,
Teach me your language,
Then let's create
Our own.

Samson

How much do I have to give,
For you
To realize,
That I
Would break walls,
And myself,
For you?

Check Mate

You moved, you see,
And the way you did it
Meant much to me.
So I looked,
And I saw,
Just how wonderful
It could be,
To follow you.

Laments of an Impatient Woman #1

Why won't you just tell me
The truth
Already,
So
I,
Can,
Deal with it?

Oversleeping

Funny how people arm themselves with so much
For self defense, they say, in case I'm robbed on the streets; you can never be too careful.
When they can be stolen from as easily as
When they shut their eyes and keep them shut
For too long.

Peek-a-boo

You're hiding and I
Won't pretend I know why,
But whatever the reason,
I hope you're well.
I know I'll find you soon.

Bravery

I wish to tame the beasts
Part of you to sleep.
Build a home among them.
Touch you as deeply,
And hold you as closely.
I wish to love
You free.

Orpheus

Let me retrieve you from the land of the dead.
Let me bring you to life.
Just hold my hand,
Stop looking back,
And follow me.
