'bay'-ond the promised


the sound of waves crashing onto the shore

where the cries from a distant land that traveled 

through the vast lone waters, that has gone along the violent storms

allowed me to harbor the stories that went on beyond the horizon


I'm scared to claim what is considered mine

tongue-tied every time I am being asked

I can't exactly determine what should

befall in these hands, but all I know is that

I am far from being content with what I have


dance along the beach, sing

the songs with calming melodies

follow where the clouds flow

up in the skies, we just got to keep

moving until we reach the boundary


I tried hard to keep believing

that I have a purpose for being alive

even though the sands bury my legs

whenever I try to struggle and escape

I still need to be calm and remember

that I don't wish to stay in just one place


help me uncover the path that stretches

across the other side of the vague horizon

no matter if my body breaks while doing it

I will still find my way home, to where I belong

Without any guide or a lighthouse on top of a hill

I will follow where my heart beats the loudest.


ー侘寂.

(don't give up yet, you still haven't found your place in this world. :)) okay, cringe)

‘Tigal’ Gigising ng maaga para panoorin ang panibagong araw na magsimula. Walang iniintindi kundi ang mga hubog ng ulap at sarili ko lang. Ang payapa na dito ko lang nakukuha, hinding hindi ko ipagpapalit kailanman. Dahil dito lang nararamdaman na ako lang ang nag-iisa. Ngunit sa isa pang ikot ng langit ay muling mawawala ang liwanag. Babalik na lamang sa munting silid. Titiisin ang dilim pati ang lamig nitong dala. Hanggang sa mangibabaw na ang takot at pagsisisi. Sa tahimik na kwarto ay may tumatakas na impit, at may hindi nakikitang mga kasama. Hahayaan nalang munang magpakalunod at habulin ang hininga. Bago bumangon at pagmasdan ulit ang panibagong araw na magsimula. ー侘寂.

'consistently inconsistent' Tired of running and chasing While facing the doors that were heavily locked  Which is believed to contain endless joy and peace inside of it I don't know when I could catch it up Those were still miles and miles away from my reach So when I sat down, I quietly told myself that, 'You need a strong heart to easily get back on track after a short rest.' I regret that I took advantage of the belief which often happens in films That no matter what hardship takes place, it will always have a happy ending When I realized all that was just made up I can't help but laugh especially at things  That requires effort and struggle Because deep down, I knew I was still weak I know I still can’t do anything in the end I'm shameless to even whine about everything Without even giving my all when I'm trying. ー侘寂.

 A Truce with Life and Death I should have known better To seek out death won't solve it all Perhaps it's the most cowardly thing to do But what can I do when everyone else was so far away All this time I stayed ignorant Because that's how I endured all of their lies Sadness, loneliness, anger---these emotions are the only ones I am familiar with But I shouldn't have fell victim to it What good does it make anyway? To settle with a dead heart has always been an easy way to escape Am I really satisfied with just giving it all up Without even knowing what the sun and trees, the ocean, and seas look like?  A resolve started to slowly build up in my heart I can feel the air filling up my lungs I think this is the first time I can finally breathe It almost felt like I returned from the brink of death  I should have done this from the beginning I should have wished for strength and not my demise I just grew tired of being angry all the time From now on I won't run away...
