isang mundo

isang buhay

isang ikaw

isang familia

isang mahal

  mabuhay ng iyong buhay hanggang sa sagad

you'll never have what I have
my life is beautiful with or without you
I have friends and a family who love me
who care and will always be there for me
who will sacrifice for my sake
I have a talent
and a great personality
I am blessed
I am unique
one of a kind
be as jealous as you can be
because you are no longer a part of me
you may say that is all true for you too
but you and I know it isn't
just think it all through

The Sound

Your heartbeat is so soothing in the night
please don't let go of me
keep holding me tight

We've done this before
but this time it's more

Lying my head upon your chest
is one of the best feelings to test

Your heartbeat is so soothing in the night
please don't let go of me
keep holding me tight

Curious Me

seeing that word
gave me so many flashbacks
up all night
my brain is on overload
wondering
wanting to explore
to find out more
hello friend
this is curious me

The Wall

The wall is white
plain and undecorated
but catches the eye
The wall is white
staring at you
waiting for color
The wall is white
so pure but empty
open and bright
The wall is white

Collections

Why do people collect things?

Why do they chose to collect what they collect?

I can tell you that I have a collection of collections.

I collect bottle caps

I collect tshirts

I collect music

I collect glass bottles

I collect pencils

I collect coins

I collect pictures

I collect postcards

I collect wrappers

I collect smashed pennies

I collect playing cards

But what do you call a collection of recollections?

Soaring

flying high above the sky
it's noticeably colorful
distracting, yet attracting
isn't it all wonderful

from blue to fuschia
yellow to green
it's quite an indescribable
sight to be seen

clouds below
are how you know
you are soaring

watching the sunset
is so reminiscent of
all those occasions
that are now old and treasured

watching it slowly slip away
beginning to hide ray by ray
no longer lighting the bay

on the left a seldom and soothing, calm night
and to the right everything is still so bright
this must mean it will be alright
just try not to pick a fight
get lost in the sight at this height
pay attention to the light

to the left, billowing puffy clouds
are so comforting and cozy
on the right, clear skies open for adventure and fun
are mysterious and invigorating

flying high above the sky

it's noticeably colorful

distracting, yet attracting

isn't it all wonderful
traveling in good company

yet so alone
soaring

this plane ride is so insane

what would it be like to journey by train?

yesterday I cried.  okay, maybe I lied

but I did listen to you

sing about the rain

it helped to rid the pain 

reminding that there is something to gain

after voyaging all that terrain

come what may

whatever people say

reply with "Hey, this is my way"

It all starts in the head
transferred thoughts
onto a napkin

jotting down so many ideas
everything comes together
falling perfectly into place

creating the words
that tell these stories
memories of a beautiful life

Queso

chips and queso

taste so good

along with refreshments

to wash it all down

laughing in good company

is all the joy in the world

friends make the night

chips and queso 

taste so good

your apology
means so much to me

I hope you accept mine
and that everything will be fine

it's easy to see you are so genuine
it makes me grin

we will love forever
tear us apart, never

to apologize
means to compromise

here's to us

well there you go
that's the cherry on top

frequently forgotten
left here all alone

acting as though this is something new
knowing it's just something I'm used to

"the straw that broke the camels back"
what is it that I tend to lack?

when you don't have to do all the work
it is one of those unwritten perks
is there anyone out there who isn't a jerk?

My Jacket

Excuse me fine sir
can you help me find my jacket?
I seem to have lost mine
I have a few others
but one is torn
one is ripped
and one is missing a button
I could really use your help
to find the perfect jacket

Getting Around

do you even know 

how to be so pro

every time we see you
you're with someone new

you sure do know how
so, go ahead and take a bow

it is probably bad
that you've been with
Brad, Chad, and your best friends dad

if I were you I'd be anything but proud
knowing I've been with the majority of people in that crowd

now think again
let go of those men

it's time to be true
forget about all that time you blew

know what you want out of
what you see to be real love

A Small Fairy Tale

Once upon a time
There was a boy
and a girl

His song was as perfect
as her hair in a curl

She was happy looking at the boy
He was smiling whilst she laughed

What were they experiencing
some sort of witchcraft?

Once upon a time
There was a boy
and a girl

His voice was so smooth
she was convinced to give it a whirl

She enjoyed his silly hand games
and so He sang her a song

What were they experiencing
had something gone wrong?

Once upon a time
There was a boy
and a girl

He was untouchable
She was nervous

She leaned in to give him a kiss
"That was for singing to me"
They smiled at each other and floated away into bliss

This is a small fairy tale
because once upon a time
there was a boy and a girl

Once upon a time
There was a boy
and a girl

His song was as perfect

as her hair in a curl

She was happy looking at the boy

He was smiling whilst she laughed

they must have been experiencing
some sort of witchcraft

Fake Untrue Cold Kid. Yearning Obsessed Unstable.

That Girl

She rocks that little black dress
like nobody's business

She moves her body
like nobody is looking

She sings her song
as if she is alone

She dances through life
as if there is no tomorrow

She writes a poem
to share with others

She drives her car
to see new things

She hikes along
with a smile upon her face

She listens to music
with emotion stirring

She pushes herself to do more
because she yearns to excel

She drinks tea
because it saved her

She loves you
because she cares

She is
THAT GIRL

Beautiful Starry Night

The darkness of the day
covered me with a blanket
shimmering with beauty

let the relaxation set in
the calmness of the sound
takes away all but one mood

hypnotized in the moment
soaking up this live elegance
no camera could capture

beautiful starry night
carry me away into the twilight
with your whispering breaths

I sit by the warm fire
and snuggle up to protect myself
from your frigid ways

beautiful starry night
I thank you
for comforting me
