Saka Na

Minsan ko nang sinabi, 

Na ang paglikha ko ng katha,

Di nakabase sa palakpak ng kung sino

Ngunit, may panahon, 

Na humihingi ito ng tugon, tulad ngayon,

Ayos lang bang ako naman ang hihingi niyon?

Ipagkakait ko muna sa mundo

Ang mga kathang nagdudulot ng tanong

Saka na ibabahagi ang bigat ng pagnanais ituloy... 

Pagkat para saan pa ang pagsamo,

Kung wala namang handang tumugon

Ikaw ba'y napangiti, napangisi, o nadurog ko

Ilalapat na lang muna sa espasyo, 

Na laan lang sa mga matang tunay na may gustong 

Maglakbay sa bawat titik, tugma, pangungusap, tutunghayan

...ang ating kwento

That Love

I told a story that perhaps confused you, 

It made you question your worth

Because the story I told is not fitting with yours

The story said the damsel learned how to fight

Alongside with the love that showed her to step

The love that have strengthen her as she walks

It said that perhaps that is the reason why,

Why we simply can't tear them apart

It confused you, because you were there too

You said, "just as when her world is colliding

it's not just 'that love' that is helping her survive, 

I am there too fighting the battles for her"

She knows it and she feels it, 

That perhaps is the curse of the depthness of your love 

It confused her too, how the reality can take a hold of it.
