Mga Circles at Bilogs

Firecrackers lighting up the sky,
Feeling you wanna fly,
A basket full of fruits,
Wishing good luck all it suits.

Polka dots are in demand,
Fad and crazes coming to land,
Wind instruments blown out loud.
Vehicles making noise all around.

Kasabay ng ingay at putukan,
At mga stick ng kwitis na nagsihulugan,
Mga hiling ay isinambit,
Nakasabit at sa pader ay nakadikit.

Akala ay bulalakaw na nahuhulog,
Paniniwalang swerte ang bilog,
Tatalon sa eksaktong oras,
Tatangkad raw ng wagas.


It's the new beginning,
Of the era coming,
Change for the better,
Stop being bitter.

Confess your pain and tears,
Live lively for years,
Forgive whom own their sins,
World peace not just on button pins.

Happy New Year sa inyong lahat,
Manigong Bagong Taon!

What I've Done

I won’t waste your time,
You won’t spend any dime,
I’ll just say words for you my only one,
To say sorry for the hurt I’ve done.

Sorry, forgive my mistake,
Sorry, I made our hearts break,
Sorry, if I did not give enough,
Knowing that together make us strong and tough.

I will not search for reasons or alibis,
Sincerity of my words straight to your eyes,
I won’t repeat, bad memories be gone,
Forgive me for what I’ve done.

Thank you for giving me this chance,
We’ll live happily and gracefully dance,
I promise to bring you the greatest smile,
Live and love, walk through the aisle.

Sendong

Bakit, bakit, bakit?
Kapalarang napakapait,
Dahil sa mga mababait,
Madaming buhay ang kapalit.

Aray, aray, aray!
Rumaragasang tubig ako'y natangay,
Troso'y nakadagan sa aking kamay,
Kotse ang dumagan sa 'king buhay.

Bwisit, bwisit, bwisit!
Pagkain puro biscuit,
Damit ko'y walang kapalit,
Sa pamilya ko'y nawaglit.

Sendong, sendong, sendong.
Juan may humihingi ng tulong,
Boses ng kapatid at kabarkada,
Pagmamahal ng kapuso at kapamilya.

Bagong taon, bagong simula,
Second collection sa misa,
Lumang damit idonate sa iba,
Simpleng bayanihan para sa kapwa.

Magsimula tayong magkaisa,
Muslim kayo, Kristyano sila,
Luzon, Visayas at Mindanao,
Pilipino tayo, ako at ikaw.

Makakaya mo bang panoorin lamang?
Matitiis mo bang hindi lumuha at mahabag?
May magagawa ka,
Ipagdasal ang kalagayan nila.

Hindi pa ako nagtatrabaho,
O makapagbigay ng singko,
Kahit man lang sa tulang ito,
Maipahayag ko ang nadarama ko.

Dirty Finger

He is standing in the middle,
So proud and so idle,
With his fellow man down,
He stand straight without a frown.

Blocking her sight,
Makes her wanna fight,
Blocking her way,
Making her wanna stay.

In the narrow street,
So silent, so discreet,
He walks toward her,
She runs slowly and tender.

Follows her steps to doom,
On a crowded restroom,
Washes his dirty fingers,
She thought he wanna linger.

Afraid in the dark,
Shivering in such bark,
Alone with a dirty gentleman,
Who fell in the mud protecting the pretty woman.

Everyday in the Rain 2





Alaala

"Ngayon kaya siya babalik?" sabi ni Angelica sa sarili, marahil nainip na kakahintay sa akin. "Baka bukas na. May trabaho pa ako." aniya. Lumabas na ito at nagtungo na sa trabaho. "Di pa rin siya nagbabago."

Pagnanasa

Sulyap ng mga mata,
Titig na tumutunaw,
Napakaamong mukha,
Paningin ko'y napukaw.

Ngisi imbes na ngiti,
Ibang init ang hatid,
Nakakagat na labi,
Ano ang nais ipabatid?

Dila'y inilalabas,
Pinagpapawisang wagas,
Napakahirap umiwas,
Sa pagnanasang bumabakas.

Sa aking kakatitig, hindi ka umiwas,
Ngunit lumalambot iyong tikas,
'Di na makapaghintay kumain,
Nang matamis na nakahain.

Kasalanan mang tumingin,
Maging ito'y hindi akin,
Ngunit labi ko'y nais sumimsim,
Dito sa napakalamig na ice cream.

My Cyberthday

Tik-tok, tik-tok,
Sound from the clock,
Twelve o'clock midnight,
Woke my dark night.

Greetings from the outer space,
Flooded by meteorites in very fast pace,
Falling stars sent, wishes were said,
Prayers coming from every friend.

Messages on my apple,
Nice words to flow,
From different people,
I don't even know.

Close friends did compete,
Whom greetings first will read,
Delicious deserts to eat,
Came from pictures' greed.

Lonely as an astronaut,
"But I have great friends", I've thought,
This cyber space is where I belong,
But I still have real life all along.

A real life to catch each meteors,
To apply all the messages of mentors,
A real life to reach all the stars,
A real life to live ignoring all scars.

KSP

Kulang sa pansin,
Malungkot na damdamin,
Bumabalot sa akin.

Parang 'di nakita,
Ni pagbati, wala,
Parang walang naalala.

Pumasok sa eskwela,
'Di ako kilala,
Dahil sa sulok ako'y mag-isa.

Daan sa cafè,
'Di para magkape,
Kundi maglaro si Pepe.

Tatambay sa isang tabi,
Para magpagabi,
Nang walang sabi-sabi.

Uwi mag-isa,
Matutulog na sana,
May sorpresa pala,

Kaklase at kaibigan,
Pamilya, mga pinsan,
Kumpleto sila sa aking kaarawan.

Gabing napakasaya,
Lungkot napawi na,
Araw ko, kumpleto na.

We're The Same

He's not a mime,
Who mimics everytime,
Not a mirror,
Who reflects my horror.

He's not a shadow,
Who chose to follow,
He's a friend,
Not a fiend.

We're actually the same,
When foolishly insane,
Attitude seem to be similar,
And we're reaching the same star.

A star by my side in the past,
Is the star on his side at last,
I silently watch and spy,
Knew that she's full of lies.

I tried to warn him,
But he won't listen,
Now tears cover, eyes dim,
Guilt, loneliness burden.

Behind my knowledge,
This star is sharp as a wedge,
Which can tear friendship apart,
And leave a wounded heart.
