Dear lover,
The darkness consumes light more and more as the hours get deeper - and I wonder if you will ever see me in my twisted, dark, but all the same self-self. It seems you only love me for the pretty things; but sadly I cannot be defined without my ugly.
There are nights like these when I wonder why I even try to work on a bond that I know is soon to fade due to lack of foundation and a...

On growing up instead of getting old
There’s really not much I can write about at 10 in the morning, so I apologize in advance.
My dad would always reiterate to my friends and I how often he had to remind me as a kid, to slow things down. I always wanted more from what my age and capabilities allowed, and he knew it would be a problem once I actually come to a point in my life when I just feel at a lost for all the years that...

The world is quieter on my side of the fence
The depths are deeper when nothing makes sense
-
No one else bothers with the troubles in your mind
They smile and they ponder, just to seem kind
-
You come into this world naked and alone
You leave traces, you fall in love
But you die just as you have come
-
Too many things to each other, to be anything together.
Maybe if we just practice some sense of empathy everytime we have the impulse of hurting someone through our actions or words, there will be less negativity in the world.

Baba,
Sometimes I speak my mind too much. My being too straightforward has gotten me into a lot of trouble, but it also keeps me stable and grounded - keeps my mind in the right wiring. Thank you for being my anchor, for balancing out my weaknesses and strengths.
We listen to very different stuff but these songs remind me so much of you/us, and hopefully you get to listen to it too. When days...

There are just some things that neither silence nor words can solve.
Then there are those that should be left accepted, even if not understood.
Then there are those that pain you endlessly; those that you painstakingly try to let go of but are constantly still haunted by. Those are the kind, all too painful to cry about - and all too familiar to just let slip by.
Maybe in the morning, when it...

Lost and Found in the Things I Love

The heat of this summer wind
Compares nothing to the warmth of your lips
And all that is caught in the in betweens
Is let go by the faint grasp of your fingertips
-
And all that is left unsaid
Linger in the dead air
And all that you throught
Would be different
Linger until
The last exchange
Of our breaths

Forgive others, not because they deserve forgiveness, but because you deserve peace.
I forgive you.

I am writing this to remind myself and everybody else who gives a damn about upholding our right to better media that education does not stop in the walls of our classrooms. It goes far beyond it - to our televisions, social networks, our everyday topics with the most random people, etc.
Highlighting a grown woman’s personal life struggles and scandals (the Philippines’...

Make The Right Joyce
The thing is, I really don’t want to turn 20.
And it’s not even an issue of holding on to my teenage years, or not wanting to grab life by the balls and take it responsibly as an adult; it’s more of my unexplainable ego of needing to keep my dub as a “young achiever.”
Growing up was very different for me. I studied differently, I excelled in music, played sports,...

Roll your back against me
Sleep off the pain
Leave me to my loneliness
For to you love is just a game

Something so comforting about the idea, although it isn’t true, that when you are lonely, the skies cry with you. There is a certain kind of bliss in the lies we sometimes choose to believe in.

And at the end of every day, still the last thing that I hear is the deafening silence of lonesomeness.

The lacking and the null
give light all the more to the abundance
And by your love I have been made
by your grace I have been saved.

Father take all there is to take
I have been too far gone in this nightmare
But through Your eyes I am wide awake
-
In all that has suffered
And all that is gone
You are all I long for
You are everything
Even more
-
The light seeps through
Every...

Beyond all this filth
I am washed clean by Your blood
And when the nightfall comes
I know you will not leave
-
Beyond the nights that are so dark,
They leave you completely blind
I am reminded that Your light
Was what always kept me alive
-
And in these moments when I remember
All that I have failed to become
Beyond the voices my sins have rendered
I know someday, by Your grace, I...

In the wee hours of the morning
In between thoughts of your shuteye
I pray you find peace in the lacking
Of a lullaby to bid you good night
-
These tangled sheets against us
The breaths you and I intake
They only sustain til the dawn
Til you and I are wide awake
-
The roaring of the oceans
The stomps that shake our ground
They are nothing if against, and not for us
The more we are...

When I say I deserve better doesn’t necessarily mean that it has to be someone else, for things to be better for me; it just means you have to stop being such a punk and acting all like you’re the only one trying so hard for this to work out.
I’ve given my everything for this, too. And I’ve got everything to lose.
We don’t ever stop loving, that’s for sure....
