This pandemic has surely taken a toll on my mental health. Its been more than one month since the start of the ECQ (Enhanced Community Quarantine).  I can't believe that I will be witnessing an occurrence as historic as this one. Malls, public transportation, schools, and work are suspended. Everyone is expected to stay home to avoid catching this very contagious virus, not lethal but very infectious. It is a very sad situation, living in a country whose capacities are not enough to support people affected by this invisible enemy. I am frightened by how the government of this country is beginning to exhibit their incompetence, their selfishness, and their lack of empathy for the people who compose this nation. There are, however, officials that can be part of the exemption. Many might say that this is the first time that this country has experienced this but I strongly doubt that as an excuse for their continuous showcase of incompetence.  I hated the fact that I'v

I feel my emotions fleeting every time I see you. Above the clouds, there it went. Without a lifejacket to anticipate the fall, without anything to welcome the drown. I thought I could chase it away with the distance I laid but it never goes away every minute of the day. It is just another poem to keep the emotions at bay, don't worry babe, I will only keep writing to drive the madness away.

Ito na ang huli sapagkat dito na natatapos ang kahibangang inukit ko sa isip na maski'y sa panaginip ay patuloy na sumisingit. Tinatapos ko na, ang bawat sandali at oras na inilaan para sa pagsintang hindi kailanman maipararamdam. Ikukubli ko sa dilim at ibabaon na sa nakalipas ang bawat pagtinging hindi kailanman mabibigyan ng pansin. Ito na ang dulo at kahit paulit ulit at isigaw ko man na ito na ang dulo, hindi ito makakarating sayo sapagkat wala namang ikaw, sa mundo kong nilagyan ko ng tayo.

Tayo ay tala na pinagtagpo sa maling henerasyon. Tayo ay nilinlang ng panahon upang ang tayo ay hindi magkataon. Sa guni guni ko ay tayo pa rin kahit na ang ningning natin ay hindi na para sa isa't isa. Ang aking hiling sa susunod na yugto ay magkaron ng katuparan ang inukit ng tadhana. Sapagkat tayo ay tala at ang ating alab ay patuloy na magliliyab sa kalawakan.

Silent Truths 4

Did you know that I never liked heights? I fear it so much because I always have recurring dreams of falling. Did you know I never learned to swim because I fear that I might drown? Did it ever occur to you that despite all these fears, I never took a step back when I decided to fall for you? Despite all these fears, I continue to drown into my fantasies of being with you and the only fear I have right now is the truth that I cannot be with you.

Lovesick

I cannot count how many late night road trips we already had. How many times we end up on gas stations to get a hot steaming cup of coffee. How many times you shared the funniest anecdotes which I laughed so hard at. Do you remember that one time when we finally held hands and gave each other that one kiss which changed everything? The stars shining so dimly that night are my witness to that moment, that moment wherein I finally won this complicated game of love.

It's days like these when you start to become the noise inside my head. I can't stop thinking of the what "ifs". These days makes me remember those times when I became obsessed with the idea that there can become an us but it also reminds me that all of this is just inside my head. There can never be a possibility of us because beneath all of these emotions are just my feelings and none of yours.
