Adil

Sometimes I wonder how big your heart could be,
for you to store so much love than we actually see...
A keeper but mostly a giver
someday I wish to be just like her
Though dreams on hold, traveling and searching ended,
like a warrior surrenders, heart is tested
still, faced and came to the battleground to be a hero,
a juggler balancing, struggling not to have a zero.

you broke your own wings, sometimes you almost die,
just so we could have ours... to fly and soar high.
The only person I know who could turn life's disaster into a beautiful memory
In you, we will always be winners & you'll forever be our trophy.
you're more than a mother that we wished for
you're our best friend forever that's for sure
I hate the fact that you have to feel twice or even thrice of our pain
but we both know we have to go through this to learn and gain.
We thank you for letting us go and be happy
to be hurt but never be lonely.

Tons of sacrifices are made
someday we wish to repay...
we may eventually find a new love someday,
but momma, remember this... you will forever be our first and last love every single day...

hubo't hubad

nakasalang na puwet, kumukuyakoy na mga paa... mga matang mataimtim na nagmamasid. bawat galaw, bawat kumpas ng mga bahagi, bawat detalye, pinagaaralan. korte ng mga labi-- mabilis ang galaw, iniiwasang kumurap. dahan-dahang pinagmamasdan. kinukubli ang inet ng araw. pawis na naguunahan. mainit na buntong hininga. lahat ay masid, atensyon mang hindi kasing silaw... uniti-unti namang hinuhubaran. bawat salita mo, binubuo ng imahinasyon ng iba... hinuhubog ka unti-unti.

pinaniniwalaan kung anong abot ng mata, hindi inaatubili kung may katotohanan o wala. mga tanong sa isip sabay-sabay na sumisiksik kahit ang katangisip ay hindi pahuhuli...

dahan-dahang dinudungisan, unti-unting pinipitasan...
walang kaalam-alam dangal na nababawasan...
isang araw magigising nalang hubo't hubad na ang katawan.

Alis volat propris

She puts a brave smile and face the world on her own
courageous warrior she has been
though tired from all the battles that seems to lose, but won. she hoped.
She knew she will never feel that feeling again.
This time it will be different. adjust. open arms to change.
she let her self go. go with the wind. wherever to take her.
She cuts her long brown hair,
don't care what others might say or think.
she owns her self and to no one.
explanation is no need, exemptions are still.
she made a decision, no one can break.
its not about you now.
its about time to take her back.
regain a new self. an updated version one.
jump off the cliff. don't care...
'alis volat propris'
she flies with her own wings.

Yesterday is not Today...

Wake up! the sun came out to see you!
don't hesitate you know you don' need a cue!
Open the windows and welcome the sunbeam with a smile :)
wear your favorite dress and drive til' you reach a mile.
coz' baby yesterday is not today

Turn up the stereo and make the volume loud!
but don't let yourself lose in the crowd,
wear your dancing shoes and let's get ready
keep on movin' let's not be steady
coz' honey yesterday is not today

So feel the raindrops in your skin
take risks who knows you might win
play the game of love and chances
and leave all your worries behind as your eyes closes
coz' sweetheart yesterday is not today

Sip your latte, watch your wife bloom like a flower
and see your children shower in laughter,
smell the fresh morning dew, see a feel-good movie with friends,
make a wish and let all the regrets just bend.
coz' yesterday is not today

Don't waste your life lookin' back
because time will never wait and it'll go with its tic-tac,
do what you know is right
let yourself flow and shine more than a light!
coz' yesterday will never be today!
