Always Trilogy

"You are my muse and will always be."

You had the courage to tell it to my face


I asked, what did I do? 

You said, I existed and you read too many romance novels.


I would laugh out loud hearing this from you,

But, instead, I stayed quiet.


How would I respond to a blatant truth?

It was you who spoke again and smirked, "I know..."


"...but you are my muse and will always be."

And then, you walked away.



-------



"And you are my Ethereal and will always be."

I said as I watched you walked away and fade


I know, I didn't say it loud enough for you to hear

And perhaps, you'll never ever know...


Or perhaps, you already knew about it,

Because, after all, you are my Ethereal and will always be.



--------



You will always end up falling in love with me

 I tried everything I can that could alter it


Sometimes, I managed to prolong the pause between the fall

But most of the time, in every timeline, every universe...


...you just fell for me carelessly




I always ask you why, so I could understand,

And you always answer because it is I


And, perhaps, I've been asking the wrong person whys,

Because if one looks at the bigger picture...


...Lovely, it is I, and always I,




So, this time, I have decided to ask myself why,

Because I exist, obviously that's the answer,


Science and logic don't need to do the explaining,

Besides, mysteries should be left untouched apparently,


Because, eventually, no matter where we both are,

I will always take the path that leads to you...


...unconsciously and unknowingly.

How Will We Heal

I couldn't let myself hurt you over and over again

But every time I tried to walk away

A part of me knows your bleeding will never mend.


So, I stayed.


But, tell me, how will you heal?

If you keep holding on the knife that cuts you deep?

Please, lovely, have the strength to save yourself from me...


...Or at least freed me from this agony of causing you so much hurt.

Winika mo sa akin

Palagi mo kong pipiliin,

'yun ang winika mo sa akin.


Lubos ang aking galak sa ika-una, ikalwa, 

ikasampu't ikasandaang bes mong pagpili sa 'kin. 


Mga ngiti ko lang ang nakikita mo,

ngunit lumulundag ang aking puso. 


Pero bakit nung kasama na siya sa pagpipilian,

hindi mo na binanggit ang aking ngalan?


Bakit parang hindi mo ata pinanghawakan,

'yung pangakong sa akin ay 'yong binitawan?


Hindi ba't palagi mo kong pipiliin,

'yun ang winika mo sa akin?


Pero teka, tila mali ang aking nadinig,

O mas tamang sabihing pinili ko lang ang gusto ko marinig,


Dahil sa aking pagbaliktanaw sa 'yong buong pagkasabi sa 'kin,

"Palagi kitang pipiliin, basta ba 'di siya kasali.", walang kurap mong sabi.




Oo,

pinili

ko

nga

lang

ang

gusto

ko

marinig,


dahil nandito na tayo, sa kumpletong pangungusap mo.

I am your Support

 May you never misinterpret the support I freely give

Because darling, I am not a leverage to your success,

nor one of the stepping stones to reach your goals.



I am your support towards victory.



And if you do not have the wisdom to know the difference,

don't you dare have the audacity to stay

Leave me alone and never come back at all.
