Moving On...

I dared to take the risk

And it was fun as a game.

I gave in and fell...

Then realized I wasn't playing.

I knew it will happen

But I didn't see it's coming.

I left myself unarmed,

Now I caught myself broken.

Give me some time,

I don't know how long.

And when I get up,

I assure I'll be strong.

I can’t play your game

I can’t play your game

Ever since I first saw you

I know you play better then I do

You have this game I can never play,

But you and the various teams you make

When I try to advance my edge over you

Your retaliations are there, ready to be used

To beat you has no available way

To join you, one must afford to pay

Bragging on people takes you no effort

For whoever grumbles, for you has no worth

You were born to be everyone’s dream pal

So once one has you, he must keep you calmed

Our worlds are entirely different

But to meet you, for me isn’t an accident

Your perfect companies stand out and shine,

While dull and dirty are what best describe mine

Ka-TG!

Ka-TG!

Once upon a time, kami lang dalawa,
Sila lang lima, at may ibang grupo pa.
Dahil parehong makakati ang mga paa,
Nagkatagpo-tagpo sa mga rampa at gala.

Kanya-kanyang mga ugali,
Ibat-iba ring mga uri.
Sa maniwala ka man o hindi,
May naliligaw ding iba ang lahi.

Kung hanap mo’y tawanan,
Tropang-Gala ang tamang samahan.
Kung ang bawat isa’y iyong igagalang,
Ka-TG ka… ikaw ay welcome!

Edad mo’y di papansinin,
Ang layo mo’y di suliranin,
Basta “party” ang nanguna sa isip natin,
Ano mang balakid, ating susuungin.

Iba ang tawag sa kanya at sayo,
Iba rin ang lingguwahe namin sa inyo.
Minsan ay may away at tampo,
Pero dahil dito, tumitibay tayo…

You’re a Model

You’re a Model

Tie your breath
Come out on stage
Parallel your chin with the floor
Wear a poker face
Lift your heel and hit the podium

Imitate a cat walk
Swing like the wind blows a hanging wardrobe

Ease your heartbeats…
By blinding yourself to aristocrats
Hear but the rhythm of your pace
Feel but in loved with your dress…
Though, it’s in fact ridiculous

Take a smooth turn
Aim your pulpit to the backstage,
You just completed the usual routine

Now, they have you in their dreams…

Isu ti Uso

Isu ti Uso

Uray panay iti purmam

Saan met gumiddan iti mabilang

Anya baru kingka tatta

Ket nagumaan dan piman

Sapay madi mu padasen,

Mangiturong iti masurot?

Mangipauso ka

Kitam, matulad nga sigod

Mangisuot ka, rutrot

Pumagna nga siga

Langisam ata buok mo

Samo isagsagunnot

Uray saan nga terno

Sapin ken sapatos

Mayat latta ti sintas

Uray pangis da ti kulor

Nu adda umuyaw

“Isu ti uso” kunam

Nu ipapilit da pay

Ibagam, “Umapal ka lang!”

Paper Cut

Paper Cut

Just when you least expect it

Not from a fainting sheet

Thing that projects but innocence

Clean and void that can hold dreams

But possesses a deceiving edge

That appears so thin and weak

Yet has the skill of a blade

With a rapid slide, you will bleed

Too late, when you see it’s deep

Delayed then for a cut treatment

But long enough for the pain to fade

Gradually, you will be relieved

Slowly, its mark will wane

Next thing, you’ll hate magazines

‘Cause its leaves cut even meaner

Turn them carefully to see what’s within

The caveats must be yet to discover

Then you’ll be gentle with papers

Kinakabog

Kinakabog

Hindi na nangimi

Basta sya ang namili

Di ka makatatanggi

Kahit kapwa mo pati

Kung dibdib mo’y sya ang sinasabi

Pigilin mo ma’y pilit kakabog

Mali man ang tono nitong tinutogtog

Ikubli mo pa at ito’y sasabog

Bigkasin mo ma’y walang tutunog

Ang sambit nito’y tanging kalabog

Who's Next, Joe?

I almost fell in your trap
Where inside has hypnotic delusion
... That who ever it blinded
could only see bliss over thrice misery
... That who ever it palsied,
could only feel caress over beats,
.. And whoever it deafened,
could only hear sweet whipers over shriek

Was I just too smart,
or just didn't worth to play your tick?
I must be under one
to let them fall unwarned
They both confess to me...
In your trap is miserable,
painful and uproar
But martirness has blinded, palsied, and deafened them

They'd rather stay and be played
Though you handed them the key to scape...

I'll Tweet That!

I'll tweet that!

Tweet, tweet, tweet!
I'm only but a chick
But I'm just what you need
To speak for you a bit

To tweet up your followers
Get smugged with 140 characters
Be my pally microblogger
And I'll be your friendly twitter!

Bungi

Bungi

Hirap ka bang ngumiti,
Dahil bilang ng ipin mo'y kakalahati?
Pigil ba ang iyong bungisngis, at sa bawat tawa mo'y palad ang nakatakip?

Kung walang duda kang positibo rito
Bungi ka nga aking katoto
One-sit-apart ang kanilang pagitan
Animoy may board exam
Kung panuto ay: fill in the blanks
Maaaring nasa ref ang kasagutan

Gilagid mo man ang manguna
Itawa mo lang ang saya't tuwa
Kung libangan mo'y ngumata ng mais
Sa gawaing ito, ikaw na'y lumihis
Kung may habag ka pang nalalabi
Sa mga ipin mong matatag pang tumitirik.
