Day 90: Favors

I love you most in my own accord
for you have touched a tender cord
my heart pumps in you company
in you comfort I had my epiphany
at your side I sense that I belong
I just hope with you, I'm not wrong

All along I felt alone
Wishing that change when I've grown
everything was rare I felt out of normal
now I have friends I feel less than formal
I learned that people stay and just rent
learned the world doesn't owe you a cent

I've been with fake people
they all start getting blurry
no point investing
Cause I leave in a hurry
but even I know that the sky hurts when it falls
so until now I still build my walls
I hate the fact that I feel so vulnerable
and to profess properly I'm not able

Yes I'm damaged
really damaged
but that does not make me different
and I am far from considerate
I plead of you
even if you don't say you love me too
Tell me I am a good person
I can be childish, self destructive and rages for a reason
but please tell me that I'm a good person
That is all I ask

Day 89: ShnhMyMngg

A beast within a blazing grace

not even the western winds would dare embrace

Her mind is carved for perfection it seems

that would make her as bless as the offspring of Zeus and Metis

A shallow one when it comes to humor

but make her mad and face the horror

Often misunderstood

she's kinder than she looks

she knows her path and she knows the way

I guess hard fruits won't just give away

She really is a hard shell to crack 

but she is a child at heart

just offer her a piece of snack

she smiles like nothing happened

regardless her confusing demeanor

I admire her as a mentor

a wholesome three dimensional

straight to the point yet rhetorical

woo her words and you will be stung

as if king Midas had touch her tongue

as Hephaestus a blaze her soul

with passion and teaching is her goal

in the sea of wisdom 

eve Poseidon would drown

but face her wrath, even Hades would frown

With the face of Venus and mind of Athena

one would assume she is the perfect one

but that is the best thing about her

she's wholesome and imperfect

Day 88: HUMSS 1

The day we will come at last

as glory days of ours will pass

we leave the days when all is naught

and seek the future that we sought

may our hearts leave forever intertwined

as the string of fate leave always tangled

for us not to depart permanently

but disperse momentarily

Still, thankful am I to the years that came

and once our paths diverged

As we received that final piece of paper

the school will bestow upon us

I hope we don't forget

the tears we cried in times of despair

or the laughter we had in days of merriment

also not those we celebrated the little accomplishments

and times when the ducks faced the dragon

in times pink has been a color of ours

or times we really got sick of it

I hope even in dementia 

may we never forget one another

We will feel joy and sadness in the we depart

but I hope that the memories remain intact

In the end I hope we all get the happiness

we know we deserve

Rome isn't built on a day

but it sure burned in one

but for now let us seize the moment

Day 87: Girls Girls Girls

Gaze upon her, isn't she a beauty?
there's nothing better than a genuine smile
perfect, subtle yet real
perfection is not something you aim at
cause trust me perfection should try to be you

Years have passed and women sought beauty
and looked for it in places where you never expect
makeup and prosthetic became a trend
and advertising companies try to tell you
you will never be perfect like these people
and they will sell you products
cashing in on puberty and low self esteem
and girls desperate need to be love
but for today it needs to stop
ever since day one, the world keeps saying
that you are not enough
but in reality you have everything within you

now look at her again,
she is not a cover magazine
and you will find flaws
but the thing is you don't have to
who can tell that there is something deep within?
a fighter? a lover? a pessimist? optimist?
no one could really tell
girls are fascinating creatures
treasure waiting to be found
she may be a stranger to most
yet the world to someone
despite girls varying their values
depending on the person who look
they all deserve to feel beautiful
within and in every way.

Girls will vary in everything
height, color, attitude and many more
but let us not make them feel like they will
never be enough than they already is
after all
we are all pieces of puzzle
waiting to be fixed

Day 86: 35,000 messages in 4 years

Re reading old conversations was a grave mistake
It flashed everything we had in just one take
I saw the rise and fall of the emperor
and how little by little I compiled my error
It was you who chat first and last to leave
as we all began at at July nineteen two thousand twelve

I was minding my own job and you decided to come along
it's about a shared photo that you thanked me for
never I realized that was the beginning of being torn
as what preceded exceeds what came before

We started out as schoolmates asking to like for a project
then classmates who talks about the papers they reject
then helping colleagues asking for assignments
and then talk about the people we resent

There was a year when we didn't chat
two thousand thirteen,
knowing that I regret talking more
before coming back in two thousand fourteen
since I haven't seen what was foreshadowed

A year later we talked again
about life and school, and how we love the rain
for it gives us the suspension we asked
it was a convo always under the sun
then I considered you as my bestfriend

then it was the glory days for us
and the golden months to come
I felt joy in you company
as you understood me well
I saw how we became friends
and start talking everyday
there was even a moment
where we chat 5 messages
under a minute
the clocks were slow and the earth was flat
logic was something that doesn't belong here
as before you my knees get weak
and even in messenger I felt that you are
the one I'm looking for
and then the best friend I knew
was some one I fell in love with
I was so ecstatic that
I forgot to rhyme and forgot the stanza

but it was all downhill from there
The moment I fell in love was
my mistake of forever
learning that and thus
you became a memory I hope I won't remember

then in a snap we drifted away
time and time the messages grow pale
I've learned something in a way
that when you fall in love you become miserable

and here we stand drifted apart
you're bridge I longed to mend
but destiny has not made amend
wherever you are I hope you're happy
and I will never be bitter of you
for in these 35,000 messages in 4 years
you we're all I ever needed

Day 85: Titser sa dulaan

Hindi mo kayang pagsilbihan ang dalawang panginoon
isang kataga na nabasa ko sa bibliya noon
hindi ko agad pinaniwalaan, ayun ang aking tugon
ngayon ang mga katagang yan ang bumubulong sa akin ngayon

bilang isang bata, ako'y nangarap magbigay gabay
sa mga taong maiiwasan pang sa landas ay mawalay
kaya mula noon ako ay nagsikap, iniwan ang buhay mahirap
hawak ang pangarap, ibang buhay ang tinahak

at ayun nga ako ay naging titser, guro sa karamihan
umibig ngunit dahil sa propesyon ako'y iniwan
sakit ng iniwan, propesyon ang aking pinagbalingan
dumagdag pa ang sakit ng nagbunga ang pinagsamahan

mahirap maging guro at maging isang ina
hindi mo kayang maging mahusay sa isa
at hindi pumalpak sa kabila
akala mo ay tumatama ka na
biglang sasabog na lang sayong mukha

maraming buhay ang aking nahawakan
mga buhay at landas na bigyan ng tamang daan
may mga nagpasalamat at saki'y nagsibalikan
kita ko ang galak nila habang ako'y pinapasalamatan

mga matang nagiiyakan
dahil sa aking kahusayan
sila'y nasa maayos na pamumuhay
dahil sa minsan kong gabay

ngunit hindi nga lahat ay perpekto
dahil dumating na ang araw na kinatatakutan ko
dahil ang kaisa isang dahilan ng pagkabuhay ko
ay nawala sa landas na dapat ay itinuwid ko

ang kaisa isa kong anak, ang aking supling
ayusin mo ang buhay mo, yan ang tangi kong hiling
ngunit iyong isinagot ay isang mahinang iling
at munti kong supling may lima ng supling

lahat ng pangarap ko para sayo ay namatay
sa sakit na idinulot mo ako ay tumamlay
ang emosyon ko ay di ko alam san ilalagay
nang malaman kong iba iba pa ang kanilang tatay

anak, anak, anak, alam ko nagkamali ako
pero bakit humantong tayo sa ganito
paano ka naging mahinhin
bakit lumalaban sa aking damdamin
gusto kitang sisihin pero ang kasalanang to ay akin

patawad aking anak kung ako ay nagkulang
na ako na dapat mong ina ay hindi ka natutukan
bagkus ibang tao pa ang aking natulungan
na magkaroon ng maganda buhay habang ikaw ay naiwanan

nakakatawang isipin na ang mga pangalawa kong anak
ay may mas magandang buhay kumapara sa tunay kong anak
pero sa pagitan ng mali at tama at lamat
ako ay nagpapasalamat

salamat dahil nakita ko saan ako nagkamali
salamat dahil kita ko na kahit ako ay hindi
gumawa ng mali ay alam kong may mangyayaring mali
salamat dahil ngayon malinaw na ang aking pagkakaintindi

hindi mo kayang paikutin ang mundo
lalong hindi mo mapipigilan ito
dahil kung tatanungin mo kung nagsisisi ako
mailap ang sagot na oo

Day 84: SiGuro

Pangalawang magulang ang turing
Sa mga taong sa paaralan lumikha ng sining
Mga taong sa diwa natin gumising
At turuan tayo ang nais nilang hiling

Ngunit Hindi ba parang kulang?
Sinasahod nila sa isang buwang
Puro lesson plan, compute ng  grades at overtime na walang bayad
Na sa likod ng ngiti nilang matingkad
Ay humihiling sila ng buhay na banayad

Ang isang nagoopisina iilang tao ang kanyang nakakasalamuha
Ngunit si guro ay higit pa sa Lima
Higit sa bente o isang daan
Ang buhay nyang nahahawakan
Iba't ibang pagkatao
Iba't ibang ugali at talino
Hindi ba mas may karapatan sila magreklamo
Mas may karapatan sila mabugnot?

Oo, bilang estudyante mahirap ang pinagdadaanan
Exams, quizzes, assignment at presentation kinabukasan
Lahat tayo laging umaangal
Sa lahat na lang umaatungal
Lahat nagrereklamo at umaabot pa sa social media
Pero may nagtanong ba kung kamusta sila?

Kalahati ng kanilang sistema
Umiikot na sa kape
Sila'y Hindi natutulog na
Pero sino nagkapake?
Mga pilit na ngiti
Sa likod ng sariling pighati
Mga matang nais nang lumuha
Pero idadaan pa nila sa tawa
Kaya ikaw magpakabait ka
Pasalamat ka at ipinapasa ka pa nila

Day 83: She is...

She's not your usual girl 
Not one for your mind to twirl
Tho I speak as a hopeless one
Hoping my feelings begone
She's a fighter and a dancer
Yet serene and quieter 
Than usual you meet nowadays
Her unique personality, my heart's a blaze
She is my game of chess
Where I'm king and queen less
I fight for a cause
Yet can only speak in prose
All the people around me I abhor
Yet she rose and I adore
The world's my oyster? I wish
I'm allergic to shellfish
Meaning I have other
Meaning my world is her
Cheesy as it sounds
It's what my heart pounds

Day 82: Writer's Block

I cannot think of anything to say
even anything to write
My mind has break away
and I lost my might
I lost my inspiration
which is ironic, cause I never had one to begin with
Seeking myself a retribution
is useless and is not worth it
I tried talking to people
but It only made me worse
my mind cannot ensemble
thoughts I cannot reverse
but people are just the worst

Walk the garden they say
but who in the right mind
would walk in a garden anyway
especially when it's night
some say I should read
Which is plausible cause I might have ADHD
I can't resort to cheap tricks
like how I always do
say a deep word or awesome one the clicks
then just make a free verse sillhetto
An essay or poem I cannot make such
as the words are out of touch
Which makes this poem ironic
Cause I made them at this state
Some may conclude this is oxymoronic
But writer's block is something I hate

Day 81: For a former friend

I saw her first a thousand years ago
Around some school event or ordinary day
I thought I'd approach her but no
I always see her then but approaching is hard
Approaching her is a process quite precise
a method only a few men knew
so of you, the reader, is looking for advice
Stop reading right now
Because I never even knew how

for what it's worth
she's really worth the try
It will take a lot of patience
A lot of time
A lot of perserverance
and giant uphill climb
There will be a time you will question
"is she worth the risk?"
Then you begin to doubt
but life and love takes no shortcuts
You got to stick it out
You stick with the hard way
cause it's the right way

Then you wait for many days
then weeks to months and years
missing the suns rays
and filling up the tears
People will start thinking your crazy
everyone will suggest that you let go
like you're preparing for a test
or even miles away from your goal
Or your doing your best
for a friend that lost control

You do the hard thing
cause that's the right thing

Day 80: Shut up

People seems like a little complicated
but it's not really complicated
I can explain it easily
did ever have a classmate who makes everything about him
cause he's just a little attention attractor
he'll be rewarded for never maturing
never learning or understanding
that every day can't be about him
there's other people you selfish asshole

They must be psychotic
maybe demented
or even damaged
to think that they are worth
of any of the attention
there's a bigger drug
that should be banned
"attention"
their drug's attention
they are the addict
but still get praised
to indulge in their habit

just shut up and mind your own business
while I'm minding my very own
you jerk who's hungry for attention
what the hell is your diet
what kind of appetite is that
just to feed your ego
you shame everybody
you useless jerkface
meet me after highschool

just shut your mouth for a day
and try not to make things about you
It was my mistake to say that attention is your drug
rather attention is your oxygen

Day 79: SLOW INTERNET CONNECTION

I've faced my most terrifying fears
and let go of people I held dear
escaped in the brink of death
conquered sleep paralysis
rejected every stupid existing fad
left my ghosts from the past
passed my worst subjects and
passed everything
But I couldn't seem to handle
A SLOW INTERNET CONNECTION

I tell my problem
the operators just roll their eyes
more than a thousand peso every month
and freaking 1mbp/s everytime
I've never tasted the quick internet connection
but you can't say that this is okay
until you watch live stream online

Slow internet...
The lan is tough ahead
the rules of survival lags
the PC hangs
Can't you give us the quality we deserve
also no, to the Telepad
they're being greedy and they know it

Everyone thinks i'm just impatient
Just cause it's true
doesn't mean that it's right
so sit down on the desk
and open that PC
let me show you what it's like
to use a computer with
A SLOW INTERNET CONNECTION

the Youtube has never gave me a video with 720p
downloading movies takes forever to take
and the facebooks works like shit
but it goes fats when I restart
ain't nobody got time for that

Day 78: Love is...

Love is diving in the pool
and then realizing you don't know how to swim

Love is taking the risk
and in the middle of it
realizing this shit isn't worth

Love is eating your favorite meal
then realizing due to evolution
and harsh environment conditions
it isn't good for you know
and you are palpitating cause you're allergic

Love is an archaeologist
who found himself a very nice fossil
and then he got a doctorate for it
but then he realize how in the world he became a "doctor"
if everything he touch is dead for millions of years

Love is a great teacher
who really teaches good but
there's this one student who can't seem to get anything
so he will pass him despite his incompetency
then one day this kid he regrettably passed
became the CEO of the company
and he was just shocked

Love is talking trash to a hobo
then that hobo becoming a fairy
and cursing you to the depths of hell

Love is a complaining student
who always get mad at schoolworks
but then he realizes that he needs this to be
a future successful person so he works hard
only to find himself in the capitalist dillema

Love is the inventor of pepper spray
and even though he has good intention
of helping the abused fight back
but then you realize that the decline of offenders is hurting
your business so you pray that people keep offending
and your good intentions became a victim of these capitalist pigs

Love is pirating your favorite broadway musical
but at the same time wish your favorite artists the best
however you are too poor to see this so you just what hurts them
and be inspired in their technically stolen work

Day 77: Perfect Girl

She was almost perfect
since perfection doesn't exist
She's the best, I've checked
her smile is something you can't resist
in my eyes, she's great in any way
she makes the sun shine brighter, and cares go away
better than a gourmet chef
love is blind, crippled and deaf
I've made the topic perfect redundant
with her great traits being abundant
She doesn't have to try and be perfect rather
perfect should try to be her
God made her the perfect girl
I was the finishing touch
She was really perfect, she didn't talk so much
Cause Delilah is a miracle worker, I was her one man show
I could love her forever, she wouldn't even know

Day 76: Misconceptions

Bridge bridge, I burn bridges
bridges burn when I burn bridges
no second thoughts when I burn bridges
I burn bridges

baby backbone is not a blessing
breaking, buckling mouth bubbling
being blissful is alarming
when you bumble words that breaking
hearts of people with words are blasting
boisterous big time opposite of blooming
relationships and hate is booming

List? yes I have a list
of all the people I dismissed
like a loser I have never missed
losing people that I left pissed
I have issues.

people I pissed is a variety
white, black, yellow or pinkish
they are annoying and perfectish
some are perfect polish
some came from a weird fetish

so do not go near me, don't you dare
I cannot maintain things and always care
I change easily before you're aware
and put a hole in your heart that was never there

but some say I can be kind or smart
and lift your spirits and your heart
talk about science, music and art
put me together, I've always been apart

Day 75: Open letter for Athena

The year is almost done
I hope you feel some trembling or resembling fun
and if the whole year you felt alone
you probably didn't laugh
but maybe a few times smirked or exhaled out of your nose
If you hated Athena that's fair
but even then could you find some time
for a parting questionnaire

On a scale of one to zero
are you happy?
less than three months we're on our own now
are you happy?
thesis, plays and defenses
are you happy?
but the real question is
is "she" happy

I really want us to be happy
and I think we could attain it if like
we didn't panic or distress
everytime were unhappy
feels like anytime we could crumble
any time
oh god, the cycle goes

so in any way try to be happy
on a scale from one to two now
are you happy?
we could despise or miss one another
are you happy?
guys, we're almost there
are you happy?

Day 74: Of kings and Peasants

thy kings of kingdom never knew
the value of wisdom might
however, some kings will be an exception
as wise kings will rise to the occassion

peasants however, is another story
as people who disgraced themselves
knew so much from nothing
a man can't be judged by his wealth or prize
neither his attitude when he has none
a man reveals himself when he got the life
he didn't wish for or always yearned for

for example, seek a man who has been rich
after of years of eating with rats
watch that man dissolve in gold
and how he choke on coins
see how wealth corrupts
and how a broken can be shattered
rags to riches sounds pleasant
but feast as men falls in a golden casket

wisdom is something like wealth and position
it corrupts people for advantage being
watch a man from dumb to genius
rise the ranks to be a scholar
and feast as he degrades the lower class
the dumb and the ignorant
watch how he degrades them

Tyrant kings are terrifying
however, peasants of abrupt power is just the same
in conclusion in the mind
men are always bound for corruption

Day 73: Losing

Defeat feels like

a lance strucked to your chest

you feel heavy and discouraged 

and feel like you cannot stand once more

losing will never be pleasant

especially if you are at the exact moment

one can learn from it

but let us all be honest

no one enters a competition to "learn"

the most painful fact about losing

is that you are so close to it

a millisecond felt like eternity 

feeling that it is at the grasp of your fingers

slips away in a heartbeat

it's the almosts that never count

Day 72: All smiles no frown

You deserve someone who sees the beauty in you
Someone who listens, hears every word and knows what to do
someone who does not only see the outside beauty of yours
That there is more than your grace on the outside
and deep down you are more interesting
It is your mind that is difficult to comprehend

You deserve someone who hold you for hours
who takes you to dates, shows you off and is proud of you
plays with your hair, and reminds you how amazing you are
even on a busy daily basis
I hope that someone calls you on a busy 2 pm rush
and not just in 4 am when he is bored

Someone who doesn't simply state that "You're beautiful"
but gives evidences to support the claim
there is symmetry in your face, I hope that he notice
and your eye twitch when you lie, I hope he notice
he makes your friends jealous and not towards you
he'll give you flowers, and loves you like it's the last day

He always look over his shoulder, looking for you
I promise he'll find you, or better you found him
you'll toss and turn every night
about him, dreaming everyday that you might
meet him someday, cause you deserve someone who treats you right

I know he'll do
Somebody out there

Day 71: temper

mt temper always gets the best of me
and always manages to keep me in check
In a race to keep losing, I could not maintain
my composure and poise is thrown out of the window
cause stress has get the best of me
everyone around is gravely affected
I don't know anymore

Day 70: Enough

The scary thing about love

is that love can make you

disbelieve about love

you heart that beats fast 

may fail to beat ever again

all the lights in the sky

may even start to dafe

and the hope of foundation

may shake and finally crumble

However, it's not about being scared anymore

it's fighting for what you want

and doing what you know is right

it's being there whatever the cost

through the ups and downs

and the push and pulls

you will drown in efforts

but in the end you will wonder

 if you are enough

Enough in a sense that 

your effort won't go in vain

enough in a sense that

there will be less

if's and maybe's

and if there's a light 

at the end of the tunnel

and if you will learn

what it's like 

to reach the other side

Again, it is comforting to make her laugh

but In the end you can only wonder

if you're worth it or enough

unless you try to bite the bullet

Day 69: Bonakid

Tonight is the night I held your hand
and finally I got hold of your gaze
As my heart was on my sleeve
as it tried to escaped my rib cage
there you are holding roses
in a dinosaur suit
awkward as it may seem
I'm just glad I said what I want to
long time ago
funny how you flinched
after I confessed my feelings properly

Day 68: Small cracks

I could never see light of it

as I drown on the sea of needs

I bleed blue and my tears are black

as the ink of the pen crawls on my skin

I get sick on the sight of paper

embracing red ink

or pink if you prefer

I cannot comprehend and memorize at the same time

Expected to perform however life sucks

asking for help frustrates you even more 

as the judging papers about to come

The sea of ink is about to drown

people who are just too down

to even fight back

they keep saying that this is only a test

which is really ironic

I'll get the trigger 

somebody pull the gun and cock it

now this poem makes no sense

I'm just really stressed

Day 67: Exhausted

I feel the walls and chambers closing in
my chest feels heavy
as my arms turn weak
my shoulders feel like something is on it
and my knees would collapse
any moment that I struggle
my eyes fail me without glasses
and my temper has not been nice
my neck pains to move
and my my fingers turn numb
my back feels stretched as my mouth feels dry
I feel the world spinning
I only fight against it
Seeking help is just a fluke
since most of the answers just disappoint
"Stressed, Busy, Too many to do"
As if you are not doing anything
However, In the end
I can only rant about this things
And struggle to find my place
as my mind and body collapse
I still seek the reward waiting outside
I fail to believe that there is nothing more
than what of I feel today
Despite the world collapsing on me
I still hope to strive through

Day 66: Tunog

Sa pagpasok ko sa bawat silid
ang lagusan sa labas, ay laging sa mata nangingilid
bago ako magkamali at mahusgahan
mabuti nang sila ay aking maunahan

Wag kang magbibigay ng dahilan
upang ikaw ay matitigan
kaya sa wala akong sasabihin
walang kwento na ihahain
at walang salitang sasambitin

Manatili sa loob ng bahay, upang di maliwanagan
isang kataga na saking sarili ipinagdikdikan
sa bawat oras na sa labas ika'y susugal
na makisalamuha ay ipapaalala nila kung bakit
ka nanatili sa loob at sinolo ang sakit

natuto ka na at hindi na nais matuto pang muli
pag sumubok lumabas, baka lang sila'y magkamuhi
dito sa loob ako ay mananatili
sinosolo ang mundo, sa kandilang nakasindi

sa inyo ako laging nakamasid
ako ba'y naglaho o kayo ay manhid?
sa pagtanaw sa inyo ako ay pilit
nagiisip kung dito ako pa ay hihigit

kahit anong kaway o katok sa bintana
ako'y di niyo napapansin
mga bagay na noon ay alintana
naging normal na rin

Sinubukan ko na sa inyo ay makisalo
palakihin ang pinaliit kong mundo
ngunit mali, maling mali ako
nagsalita ako na walang nakarinig
o kaya ay wala na lang pumansin
sa paglakas ng puso sa pintig
ako'y nagihintay pa rin ng sasama sa akin

Sa mga panahon na sinubok ko na makisalamuha
may kumaway ba pabalik? o kahit nakapuna?

Lahat naman nagsisimula
ng may kinang sa mga mata
mga panahon na akala natin ay
tayo sa kanila ay nababagay
Ngunit hindi lahat ay nanatili
at hindi mo alam san ka nagkamali

Kapag nahulog ba ang isang sanga
sa isang puno sa isang kagubatan
ay may tunog ba syang ginagawa?
kapag ako ba ang nawala
may makakapansin ba?

gumawa ba ko ng tunog?
kahit ingay man lang?
gumawa ba ko ng tunog?
kahit ingay man lang?
gumawa ba ko ng tunog?
kahit ingay man lang?
gumawa ba ko ng tunog?
kahit ingay man lang?

Parang wala naman akong ginawang tunog
parang wala naman akong ginawa na tunog
magkakaron kaya ako ng tunog?

Day 65: Reciprocate

this world is not kind 

as it will give you more than 

what you can handle

it will spit, punch and kick you in the face

for the reason it can

It will be a cycle of hate, yes

as you grow weary of the present 

and romanticize the past

seeing no future ahead 

you cry in screams of agony

or quietly shut yourself out

as the cycle goes

people will try to give the pain they have

and inflict them upon others

yes, this world has not been kind

but promise me

that you will not give that pain to anyone

let the cycle end in you

Day 64: Earphones

My dear companion who is
severely underappreciated
you deserve more praise than
you already deserve
you shut the noisy world outside
and let the beauty of your melody
resonates within my mind

A kinky friend as they have said
as you have to enter your hard pole
to a wide hole to function
and in time when you've grown old
your strings and penetration
needs a lot of work

However, in the end you deserve my thanks
as you shut the world that would not shut up
as you enter the depths of my mind
I know that I can leave this world behind

Day 63: The funny thing about love

The funny thing about love
is that it is easy as breathing
but at the same time it can
take your breath away

The funny thing about love
Is that it can be associated to science
to chemicals, to reactions
but you can't blame gravity for it

The funny thing about love
is that the higher you try to build
your walls around your heart
the harder you fall when someone tears it down

The funny thing about love
is that strangers who meant nothing
can be a person who means everything
that will leave you without anything

The funny thing about love
is that time is never on your side
you just go along with the ride
and set everything aside

The funny thing about love
is that you are never really prepared
it comes in moments you never knew
and moments you wish didn't do

The funny thing about love
is that you leave someone to
point a knife at your chest
trusting them not to thrust

The funny thing about love
is that the longer you hide
the stronger it gets
the weaker you appear

The funny thing about love
is that it can be one sided
or work in many ways
it's complicated either way

The funny thing about love
is that it gives the word "Almost"
a whole existential feeling
and don't get me started on the "What if's"

The funny thing about love
is a perfect scenario can be made
"Do I stand a chance?"
In your smile I found my answer

The funny thing about love
is that it only works
when you give all or nothing
anything in between is chaos

The funny thing about love
is that life goes on without it
surprisingly, despite the scars and bruise
life goes on without it

The funny thing about love
is that you know and don't know anything
confessing is frightening
escaping is disappointing

Day 62: Love poems (Sarcasm ahead)

I love your hair, your eyes and your smile

I love your skills, your quirks, your wits

I love your friends, your peers and family

and I love the fact that these things 

are said in a million ways considering 

how wide the English medium is

the love poems of today have a weird take

they don't like the specfics

they prefer to be really vague

so after they created one and rejected by one

the are up for another use

beginning a cycle of ruse

Describing a girl and how they apply

to everyone is really really weird

like:

"You are unique girl like a fingerprint or snowflake

The fact that you mature considering you're

a product of evolution

I love you gait cause you don't walk like

a freaking cave man

I like your teeth because they are yellowish whitish color

I love your smell cause you have a pleasant odor

Especially I love the fact that most of your 

internal organs are working"

Who am I to criticze a person in love

after all how can love be wrong?

not counting people who loved man slaughtering

what I really can't stand

is when they use big words so they are simply appreciated

like:

"your eyes are like suns in worlds in galaxies 

never been discovered yet true

your lips in amidst of haze curved which

caused my source of grecian power to rise

thy felt the golden frost as if

king midas touched the sky

and by the sprinkling 

as the shower of dillema had ended

I saw your grin directly at me

and as the dawn had break

I had my courage to speak

like a leaf in photosynthesis"

pft like what?

Day 61: Bad poems (Tagalog version)

"Pag may tiyaga may nilaga"
hindi ko alam bakit naging
kaakibat ng pagtitiyaga ang
ulam na nilaga
mas matagal kaya magluto ng pakbet

"Bagong hari, bagong ugali"
minsan napapasama pa nga
kasi ayos na naman yung noon
pilit pa papaltan ng ngayon

"Bakal"
walang naninira sa bakal
kung hindi ang sarili nitong kalawang
pero ayon sa agham kailngan ng
tubig at hangin para kalawangin ito
kaya malaya kang manisi ng ibang tao
sa pinagdadaanan mo

"Simbahan"
Pagkahaba haba man daw ng prusisyon
sa simbahan pa rin ang tuloy
pwede kang ikasal o paglamayan
mamili ka

"Pagsisisi"
mag sisi ka man sa huli wala
na raw mangyayari
pero mamili ka
tumayo ka at magbago tulad ko
o kaya manisi tulad mo

"Batong"
batong pagulong gulong
di kakapitan ng lumot
parang napasama ka pa at nais mong umusad
kaysa lumutin sa kinatatayuan mo

"Taniman"
kung ano ang itinanim
siyang aanihin
gawin mo sa kapwa mo
ang nais nilang gawin sayo
sabi ng rapist

"Daga"
sabi nila wag mo pagsasalitan
ang mga daga ng masama
kung hindi ay kakainin nila damit mo
mga peste

"Itlog at sisiw"
Wag daw magbilang ng sisiw
habang di pa napipisa ang itlog
ang mokong na nagsabi noon
ay malamang walang alam sa negosyo

"Matanda"
Laging sinasabi na kasabihan
ng matanda ay dapat sundin
pero ang bata ay hindi nagsisinungaling
sino bang papaniwalaan namin?!

"Bato sa langit"
bato bato sa langit wag magalit
ay nasusunod ng madalas sa mundo
dahil pag tinamaan ka ng bato mula sa langit
maliit ang porsyento ng buhay ka pa

"Magnanakaw"
galit ang kapwa magnanakaw
sa kapwa magnanakaw
isang pahayag na nagpapatunay
kung gaano kahipokrito mga tao

"Isip"
pag may gagawin ka raw ay isipin
mo ng higit sa anim na beses
pero kapag ang exam ay multiple choice
na sampu pa blangko mo
at limang minuto na lang
aba bilis bilisan mo na

"Lipunan"
Lipunan: maging totoo ka sa sarili mo
Lipunan: hindi ganyan

Day 60: Happy birthday!!!

May the years that passed has given you
gifts of wisdom and experience
and may the succeeding years
of your life prosper more to
more than of what you are today
Starting on your legal age
may every morning be a wonderful one
and your smile always stick to your face
I cannot foresee a perfect life
however I can wish you good one
may life treat you with happiness
and if ever life mistreats you
punch life in the jaw
May you have wrinkles as a proof you laughed
and scars as proof of  living
I wish you the best
