Jollibee Calapan

As I arrive in the place where we first met
I look around with all the feelings left
Then I slowly reminisce
How perfect things back then

We were set for something beautiful
The start of a story that could've bloom
Now that's all in the past
I guess that happiness, wasn't meant to last

I sat on the chair where I saw you first
Across the table, a moment never missed
I still remember how soft your smile that night
As you greet and stretched your hand 

How vividly I remember everything
The noise, the lights, and the anxiety
How I wish I was trapped in that moment
And simply live that time we spent

I could still feel my hands shaking
Sweat around my forehead dripping
How I wish to make the best first impression
And how I wished we went more from that moment on

Now we live in the card dealt by fate
As I can only live in the fantasies I create
Maybe it wasn't meant to be everlasting
God simply gave me a taste of what happiness feels

And now I order that very meal
Along with the feelings that I feel
How I crave to live that night again
Maybe I'd do things differently, and my heart be spared

Maybe I'll try again in some time
And if destiny allows, another lifetime
Still I wish there's something more
But as I take my order to go
I leave my heart here, nothing more
Then finally start to move on

Puyat


Baka naman wala talagang tamang oras o pagkakataon
Na nakalaan para sa kwento na ito
Baka kahit maghintay ako ng isang daang taon
Ay mauulit lang ang mga nangyari noon

Hindi sa mali o hindi tugma ang panahon
O kaya sabihin pa natin na masyado pang maaga
Hindi sa hindi pa tayo handa
Sadyang hindi tayo para sa isa't isa

Walang bituin sa langit ang nagdidikta
Wala sa mga guhit ng kapalaran
Kalokohan lahat nang nasa baraha
Dahil hindi naman talaga tayo ang nakatadhana

Baka sa libro ng pag ibig nating dalawa
Sa akin ay pinupuno mo ang ilang kabanata
At sayo na nakaakda
Ako ay isang simpleng pangungusap lamang

Wag ka naman mag alala
Walang pait o paninisi akong nadarama
Mabuhay na lang tayo sa reyalidad
Na walang kinabukasan na para satin nakalaan

Pandang Gitab


 The blanket of stars could not compare
Or even the moon, with the light they share
In an evening where all the lights are intense
Your eyes outshines, being the brightest

All the candles and bulbs have been shining brilliant
And all the celestial bodies above glowing radiance
But even with all these pretty lights
The most beautiful shine around is your smile

First time that I'll see you in this eternity
How I wish for it to be a proper beginning to our story
I hope in person, my feeling will properly translate
Towards a new word in which we will create

I like to know every bit of you in time
If ever the future will be so kind
I don't know what the future has in sight
Bur for tonight, let us enjoy the festival of lights

I didn't mind the wait



I didn't mind the quiet nights
No message as days go by
I have all the patience in the world
As long as you say you would too

The anxiety of what may come
May have built up inside
But I didn't mind all of that
As long as you're coming back

The pain is all mine
But I never thought it was unfair
We all need time
To piece our life together

But then I saw you again
Energy surrounding have changed 
What I realized instead
Is that you sounded better in my head

As I let go what I feel for long
I will do what I should've done much soon
Something I should've realized back in June
There's a reason we only look at the moon
