Ano kaya ang tunay na sanhi
Ng aking kawalang kasiyahan?
O binibini, ikaw ay aking
tinatanong, "Alam mo ba?"
Kung sakaling ito'y iyong
Nalalaman, pakisabi sa 'kin
May ilan na rin akong mga
Naiisip, tulad ng:
Dahil ito ay aking kagustuhan
Sapagkat ito'y aking pinili
O di kaya sadya lang ako'y
Malungkutin, isang bugnutin
Mahal ang tunay na panahon
Ngunit hindi ako manghihinayang
Ubusin ito, malaman ko lamang
Ang sanhi ng aking kalungkutan
Find anything:

Tungo sa Katiwasayan
Tandang-tanda ko pa
Kung paano ko sinubukang
Ikaw ay aking makalimutan.
Hindi ko kayang amining
Ako'y nagkamali
Sa aking pagkilos.
Ano ba ang nangyari sa 'tin?
'Bat nawala ang dati nating pagmamahalan?
Bakit mo ako pinagpalit sa kanya?
O, andami kong mga katanungan.
Diyos ko, sagutin Niyo po ako.
Sa dami-dami ng aking mga suliranin
Tila tanging ito ang hindi ko makakayanan.
Pananampalata, patibayin mo aking mga tuhod;
Pag-asa, palakasin ang aking dibdib;
Pag-ibig, nawa'y magsilbi kang ilaw,
Ilaw na papawi sa nananaig na kadiliman sa malungkot kong buhay.
Buuin ninyo ang nasirang nilalang na ito
Upang ako po ay makapamuhay sa katiwasayan.
Kung paano ko sinubukang
Ikaw ay aking makalimutan.
Hindi ko kayang amining
Ako'y nagkamali
Sa aking pagkilos.

Savings Account
Ngayong araw na ito, nagdeposito ako ng P33,300.00 sa Equitable PCI Bank -- Aurora Branch. Winidraw ko ang lahat ng deposito ko sa Veterans Bank -- Crame Branch, P31,371.86. Plano ko ring makatipid ng P10,260.00 o 90% ng akong buong baon sa darating na ikalawang semestre. Ngayon ko lang narealize na maaari pala akong makaipon ng P40,000.00 sa loob ng dalawang taon. Balak kong makaipon ng P100,000.00 pagdating ng panahong gagradweyt ako o sa katapusan ng aking ikaapat na taon sa kolehiyo, anumang mauna sa dalawa.

Ang pangako, tinutupad
Heto na ako ngayon, muling nagbabalik mula sa aking pananahimik. Kung inyong natatandaan, ipinangako kong magbabalik ako. At dahil sembreak ko na, narito na ako. Masaya ang bakasyon! Mas masaya sana kung matataas ang mga marka ko. Hayaan niyo, magtatanda na ako. Si Joel ay magbabalik na sa kanyang kahenyuhan. Tignan ko lang kung ano ang mangyayari sa mundo. Biro lang iyan. At dahil tapos na ang semestre, marapat lamang akong magnilay-nilay sa mga nangyari sa aking buhay. Gusto ko nga palang banggitin ang makapagpagong-buhay na pangyayari sa akin.

Dasal ng Pasasalmat
Diyos ko, salamat po sa lahat ng mga biyayang pinagkaloob Ninyo sa akin. Kung wala Kayo, hindi po magiging posible ang aking tagumpay. Pasensya na po Kayo sa aking pagkukulang. Salamat po at maaga pa lang ay tinuruan Ninyo ako ng leksyon. Masasabi ko pong lubos akong natuto. Sana po ay lagi Ninyong ipadama ang Inyong presensiya upang ako'y hindi makalimot. Sa Inyong tulong, sanay hindi ko na ulitin ang aking mga pagkakamali. Maraming salamat po. Mabuhay Kayo!

Para sa 'yo
Akala mo, mahal kita
Akala mo, gusto kita
Pero ang hindi mo alam
Totoo ang akala mo
Sana nandito ka
Sana kaibigan kita
Nahiya pa kasi ako
Nagmukha akong gago
Ang hirap mag-isip
Kung pwede nga,
gusto kong matulog
habambuhay
Sawa na ako sa ganito
Walang biro
Nais kong magbago
Para sa 'yo
Akala mo, gusto kita
Pero ang hindi mo alam
Totoo ang akala mo
Sana nandito ka
Sana kaibigan kita
Nahiya pa kasi ako
Nagmukha akong gago

gusto kong matulog

Malamang
Hindi ko matanto
Ang 'king pagkabigo
Hindi ko maabot
Ang nakatatakot
Gagawain ko na
Ayokong magdusa
Minsan, ako'y tanga
Naglalahong bula
Mukhang masama
Ang aking ginawa
Ngunit bakit ganun
Gusto ko ng balun
Ang 'king pagkabigo
Hindi ko maabot
Ang nakatatakot
Gagawain ko na
Ayokong magdusa
Minsan, ako'y tanga
Naglalahong bula
Mukhang masama
Ang aking ginawa
Ngunit bakit ganun
Gusto ko ng balun

Tired
I'm tired
Exhausted
Enervated
Reduced
I've tried
But to no avail
I'm dried
To my bones
The plate shines
As the golden sun
It bewilders me
'Till infinity
My body's down
Can't get up
Stays down
Forever
Confusion reigns
Somebody help
'Coz I can't do it
Alone
Exhausted
Enervated

Mula libog hanggang sa pagiging walang-imik
May pagkakataon na ba sa iyong buhay na ika'y nakagawa ng katangahan dahil sa 'yong kalibugan?
Sa akin, oo.
Sinadya mo ba 'yon o hindi?
Hindi.
Bakit hindi mo ito pinigilang mangyari?
Dahil natural ito.
Paano mo naman nasabing likas ito?
Dahil hindi ko kinundesyon ang aking sarili rito.
Masasabi mo bang pagmamahal ito?
Hindi.
Bakit naman?
Kasi, hindi ko man lang siya nakausap.
Hindi mo siya man lamang nakaututang dila! Torpe ka ba?
Oo.
Bakla ka ba?
Hindi siguro.
Hindi ka sigurado?
Hindi.
Paano mo naman nasabing hindi ka bakla?
Mayroon akong burat; lalaki ako. Hindi ako nalilibugan sa mga larawan ng mga lalaki; hindi ako bading.
Binabae ka ba?
Sa ilang bagay.
Magbigay ka ng halimbawa.
Hinahayaan ko lang masaktan ang aking sarili sa aking hangaring makiwas ng gulo.
'Bat ayaw mo ng gulo?
Kasi ayaw kong masaktan.
E hindi ba normal lang ang makaramdam ng sakit?
Normal nga.
Kung gayon, di-sapat ang iyong dahilan.
Tama ka.
Sa akin, oo.

Nothing remains
You were once special to me;
you were once such a beauty
But now, you're ordinary
You are just like all of them
Opportunity wasted
only by someone like you
You are nobody to me
I don't even know you
Many others will give back
the love you unrequited
you were once such a beauty
But now, you're ordinary
You are just like all of them
Opportunity wasted
only by someone like you
You are nobody to me
I don't even know you
Many others will give back
the love you unrequited
Hardin ng Kalungkutan
Ang iyong mga salita
ay naglaho, nawala
sa aking mga palad
tumutulo ang hubad
na katawan mo ay di
kailanman magwawagi
Nananahan ang puso
ko sa mabahong dilubyo
Huwag akong pahirapan
Hardin ng Kalungkutan
Nababalot ng lamig
ang aking mga bisig
Nagtatago ang mukha
Ang hirap maging dukha
Kinukubli ang ulo
Kulay pula ang dugo
Pagod na 'ko sa ganito
Parating gumuguho
ang aking kasiyahan

'Till forever
I don't like your kiss
if it means goodbye.
I don't want your smile
if it's just made up.
I don't wish for you
if you're not for real.
'Cause I want the real you;
'cause you don't have to change.
I'll stay
with you
'till forever.

A Learning Experience
Only a few days are left
Until the semester ends
This is our last hurrah
We should give it our all
My love is not by my side
She left me and went to hide
'Cause she found out that I am mad
I can't help my feeling sad
I do not regret it
Nothing can ever change it
It was a learning experience
That wasn't without conscience

Mga Tala Ukol sa Paglaganap ng mga Kantang may Dalawang Pagpapakahulugan
Hindi kaila sa ating mga Pilipino, lalung-lalo na sa mga taga-Maynila, ang paglaganap ng mga malalaswang kanta. Haay, naku! Wala na ata tayong iuunlad. Ang ating mga kababayan ay tila kuntento na sa Entertainment na baliko.
Mga kabayan, gumising na nga tayo! Hindi pa ba kayo nagsasawa sa karumihan ang ating kapaligiran. Puno na nga ng mga tambak ng basura ang ating paligid. Sana huwag na natin ito dagdagan. Tumigil na tayo sa pakikinig ng mga walang kakwenta-kwentang tugtugin.
Mahal ko ang Pilipinas. Huwag tayong umasa sa mga dayuhan pagdating sa pagpapaunlad ng ating bansa. Ang ikasusulong natin ay nasa ating mga kamay. Isipin natin ang ating mga magiging anak. Dapat tayong magsilbing mabuting halimbawa sa kanila.
Kung mayroon tayong dapat gawain, isakilos na natin ito agad. Hindi tayo dapat na magpatumpik-tumpik pa. Mayroong magandang bukas na nag-iintay sa ating lahat. Marapat lang nating manalig sa Maykapal, at siguradong hinding-hindi niya tayo pababayaan. Ang tunay na lakas ay nasa sambayanang Pilipino.
Mabuhay!

Gising pa ako
Gabing-gabi na at gising pa ko. Unang araw ng pasukan bukas. Nagmisa nga pala ako kaninang alas siete ng gabi. May asong pumasok sa simbahan. Natuwa nga ako kasi ang lambing nung aso. Yung paring nagsermon ay bagong pari pa lang. Good luck po sa inyo. At tulad ng karaniwan nilang ginagawa, naki-alam siya sa pamahalaan sa homili. Bakit ba sila (ang kaparian) ganyan? Hindi ba nila naiintindihan na ang kanilang ginagawa ay labag sa saligang-batas? Sige, matutulog na ako.

PMHS ang pinipili ko
Sa simula, dalawang orgs ang gusto kong salihan: UP PMHS at UP ABM. At dahil crammed na nga ang sched ko, kinailangan kong mamili ng iisa lamang. Ang pinili ko ay UP PMHS. Bakit? Una, una silang nakilala ko. Ikalawa, una akong nakatambay sa lugar nila. Ikatlo, mas ramdam ko ang pakiramdam na pamilya sa PMHS. Ikaapat, masyadong matagal ang tambay hours na kailangan sa ABM. Ikalima at pinakamahalaga, mukhang mas magdedevelop ako as a person sa UP PMHS.

May natutunan ako
Nagsimba ako kahapon. At dahil Corpus Christi ang ipinagdiwang bukas, ang sermon ay tungkol sa tamang pag-uugali sa loob ng simbahan. Ngayon ko lang nalamang dapat pala'y hindi tinatanggap ang katawan ni Kristo o magkomunion kapag may mabigat kang kasalanan o mortal sin. Sa katunayan, sinabi na iyan ng aking nakakatandang kapatid na si Ate Nadia. Hindi sa hindi ako naniwala sa kanya, kundi nais kong makumpirma ito muna. Kaya noong oras na ng pangungumunion, hindi nga ako nagkomunion. Wala akong magagawa kung ganoon ang patakaran ng simbahan. 'Yan tuloy, gusto ko nang mangumpisal.

Ang sarap matulog
Halos wala akong ginawa ngayong araw na ito kundi matulog. Ang sarap! Ngayon ang ika-106 na taong anibersaryo ng deklarasyon ng kalayaan ng Pilipinas mula sa Espanya. Andami ngang mga iba't ibang pagdiriwang kung saan-saan. Ang kalayaan ay nasa atin na. Binabaliwala natin ito. Iyon ay totoo. Simula noong bumagsak ang rehimeng Marcos, nawalan na tayo ng disiplina. Ang imoralidad at basura ay lumaganap. Hindi pa huli ang lahat. Araw-araw, tayo'y binibigyan ng sariwang pagkakataong magbago.

The Unchanging
Who am I?
I am Joel Tolentino Duque
Born on August 05, 1986
A male human being
I love to think I have a purpose
It would be great to die only after success of the mission
In any case, a family would be nice; being with loved ones
I am weak; I have to surrender to somebody
To whom shall I become a slave?
My life is yours, master
I am yours to command
I am here through eternity
My best wishes
Love always
Sincerely yours,

Nakakapagod
Katatapos lang ng unang lingo ng semestre. Nakakainis yung Physics 10. Hanggang ngayon, pagkatapos ng dalawang pagkikita, wala pa ring itinuturong aralin sa amin. Binigyan nga kami ng diagnostic test tungkol sa Physics at Astronomy. Ano ba iyan? May bago akong kaibigan. Hindi ko nga alam kung kaibigan din ang turing niya sa akin. Hindi siya namamansin. Para nga siyang galit sa akin. Paano ba naman, nagsaliksik ako ukol sa kanya. Kahit papaano, natutunan ko na ring mahalin ang pagod. Ito'y nangangahulugang nagmamature na ako.
Not enough
Sorry is not enough
Like balloons that will puff
It is soft and fragile
And it only lasts awhile
My sorry, I meant it
It's not just an exit
From the day of my birth
To the ends of the earth
Do you like to hurt me?
Am I a wannabe?
Reason does not suffice
My reaching for the skies
Like balloons that will puff
It is soft and fragile
And it only lasts awhile
My sorry, I meant it
It's not just an exit
From the day of my birth
To the ends of the earth
Do you like to hurt me?

Reason does not suffice

Walang aklat
Magtatapos na ang unang lingo at wala pa rin akong aklat sa Biology at Chemistry. Walang stock ang National Bookstore--Ali Mall at Superbranch. Hirap talaga maghanap ng ibang libro 'pag estudyante ka ng peyups. Joel, onting tiyaga lang. Kaya mo iyan. Ikaw ang ngayon. Wala kang aanihing hindi mo itinanim. Gusto ko talagang maging manggagamot. Ito'y isang pangarap na matutpad. Nais kong mag-aral ng medisina sa UP Manila. Mga kapwa-Pilipino, lahat kayo'y aking isasama sa aking tagumpay!

Ironic
Ang biology ay ang pag-aaral ng buhay. Ngunit malungkot na sa pag-aaral ng buhay, kinakailangan kong kunin ang buhay ng ilang palaka. Ito ay aking nalaman sa pamamagitan ng aking pagskim sa aking biology laboratory manuals. Kawawa naman sila. Hindi naman siguro sila dapat mamatay. Ang dilemma na ito ay matagal nang kontrobersyal. Datapwat, dapat akong magdesisyon ngayon. Hanggang sa kasalukuyan, ang pagdidissect ng isang organismo lamang ang kasalukuyang mabisang paraan upang ang hayop ay mapag-aralan. Ang buhay ng hindi tao ay isasakripisyo para sa buhay ng tao. Kumbaga sa Ingles: "The end justifies the means." Papatay kami ng mga nilalang upang makatulong sa pagsulong ng mga makataong interes. Nakapagpasya ng ako. Hindi na ako maaawa sa buhay ng palaka at iba pang hayop na gagamitin sa mga eksperimento. Naniniwala akong ito'y nasa loob ng pamantayang etikal. Lahat ng mga gawaing makasiyensiya, basta't nakapaloob sa moralidad, ay ating isabuhay.

Goodness
I'm tired of the good.
What's with it?
Nothing.
It doesn't pay.
No such thing
as good karma.
Why would I believe it?
It has no basis.
I'm burned out.
Can't you see
that I'm just
So irritated?
Goodness only
is a choice.
It's up to you
to choose.

Mga giliw kong mambabasa, pasensya na po kayo dahil baka makapagpost na lang ako tuwing Biyernes o Sabado. Alam niyo po kasi, napakadami kong mga aralin sa iskul. Kaya huwag na kayong magtaka kung mapansin niyo mang na hindi na ako aktibo. Sanay naiintindihan ninyong nakatataas na prioridad ko ang aking pag-aaral. Mas mahalaga ito kaysa blog na ito.

Ang unang araw
Ang araw ay dumating na, ang araw na una akong papasok sa eskwelahan. Ano ba yan? Ang aga kong nagising kanina. Hindi ako sanay sa ganyan. Binati ko ng gudlak ang lahat ng nasa ponbuk ko na nag-aaral sa UPD. Dalawang tao nga lang ang nagreply--sina Bob at Boots. Wala naman akong magagawa kung malamig yung nakararami. May takdang-aralin agad ako sa Panitikang Pilipino 19. Alam niyo, ngayon ko lang nalamang ang paksa ng naturang kors: Sekswalidad at Kasarian. Oh my God, magbabasa at manonood kami ng pornograpiya. Hindi naman siguro ako magkakasala dahil gagawin namin ito sa konteksto ng edukasyon. Sana nga lang ay makabuti ito imbes na makasama.

Gising pa ako
Gabing-gabi na at gising pa ko. Unang araw ng pasukan bukas. Nagmisa nga pala ako kaninang alas siete ng gabi. May asong pumasok sa simbahan. Natuwa nga ako kasi ang lambing nung aso. Yung paring nagsermon ay bagong pari palang. Good luck po sa inyo. At tulad ng karaniwan nilang ginagawa, naki-alam siya sa pamahalaan sa homili. Bakit ba sila (ang kaparian) ganyan? Hindi ba nila naiintindihan na ang kanilang ginagawa ay labag sa saligang-batas? Sige, matutulog na ako.

May pakiramdam ako
May pakiramdam ako.
Anong palagay mo?
Masisiyahan ako
sa ginawa mo?
Siyempre, hindi no!
Ano ako?
Lulu-luko,
Utu-uto?
Putang ina mo!
Isa kang gago;
Hindi na magbabago
Aking panibugho.
Kaibigan? Kapal mo.
Ikaw ba ay sino?
Isa ka lang tak-ke,
Puno ng mga bulate.

Sa palengke
Kaninang umaga, pumunta kami ng aking ama sa palengke. Ang pamilihang bayan na aming pinuntahan ay ang Q-MART. Mula sa Camp Crame, kami ay tumungo roon sa pamamagitan ng pagsakay sa dyip (Q-MART). Grabe, ang daming mga paninda! Ang pangunahin dahilan namin doon ay ang bumili ng pusit. Sa kasamaang palad, wala kaming nakita roon. Ang binili na lang namin ay apat na pinya, labindalawang itlog (ng manok), at sampung piraso ng balut. Masasabi kong masaya ako tuwing pumupunta kami sa palengke. Bakit? Pambihira kasi iyong nangyayari. At umuwi kami sakay ng air-con na bus (Cubao-Ilalim). Nakakainis nga at sa ibabaw pa rin dumaan ang bus. Pero okey na rin iyon. Hindi mababago noon ang katotohanang sumaya ako kahit papaano.

Dreams are dark
Dreams never come true
That's why I'm blue
They're our best hopes
Nothing but weak ropes
Floating like a cloud
Never turns loud
Drifts away, slowly
As good as a folly
That's why I'm blue

Floating like a cloud

Drifts away, slowly

Aking kamatayan
Mamamatay ako
'Yan ay tiyak
Kung ako'y pamimiliin,
heto ang gusto ko:
Maraming kaibigan
Lahat ay totoo
May iisang asawa
Apat na anak
Mabilis ang libing
Walang iyakan
Walang tawanan
Parang ako
Ipangako ninyong
ang huling hiling
ay di-babaliin,
bagkus, itatayo
'Yan ay tiyak

Walang basehan
Ang iniisip ko
ay walang basehan
Ito ay malabo
parang lokohan
Hindi kita mahal
'Yan ang totoo
Puro ako daldal
Wala sa tono
Hinahangaan kita
Walang biro
Ang iyong mukha
ay nakatitindig-balahibo
Mahirap tanggapin
Walang basehan
Aking pagtingin
Ahh, umuulan

Natapos ko
Ngayong araw na ito ang unang opisyal na araw ng enrollment. At sa manilwala man kayo o hindi, natapos ko ang naturang proseso, maging ang pagbabayad ng tuition fee. Alam niyo ba, hindi ko inaasahang matatapos ko ito sa loob ng isang araw lamang. Apat na sabjek ang hindi ko nakuha sa CRS (ang online pre-enlistment ng mga sabjek ng UP Diliman). Ang mga sumusunod ay ang mga pinangpalit ko sa kanila: PE 2 - Stretching, Physics 10, Philosophy 10, at Panitikang Pilipino 19. Kakaiba ang nakuha kong schedule; Mondays/Thursdays: 7 A.M. - 2:30 P.M., Tuesdays/Fridays: 7 A.M. - 7 P.M., Wednesdays: 7 A.M. - 10 A.M., at Saturdays: 8:30 A.M. - 12 N.N.
Nakita kita ngayon

Ang ganda mo
Haay
Kinakapos ako ng hininga
Wala na akong masabi

tinatapos

Paghihintay
Sa aking buhay, may mga pagkakataong kailangan kong maghintay. Ito ay hindi dahil sa aking kagustuhan kundi dahil sa pagkakataon. Nais kong ikwento sa inyo ang nangyari sa akin kanina. Ito ay isang payak na halimbawa ng naturang kalagayan. Galing ako sa mahal kong UP Diliman upang magpatala, miski man lamang sa PE 2 at Physics 10. Sa kasamaang palad, hindi pa raw kami pwede. Ang mga maaaring magpatala ay yaong bago at magsisipagtapos na mga mag-aaral. Haay, umuwi na lang ako. Sayang lang ang oras ko kung piliin kong manatili roon. Wala naman akong nakaplanong gawain doon. At habang ako'y papauwi, sakay ng bus, ang aking kaluluwa'y napuno nang kaligayahan mula sa tiyak na pagtanaw sa mga bagay.

Kawalan
Nariyan ka
Sa harap ng kompyuter.
Nakatunganga,
Nagwawala.
Ano ba ang gusto mo?
May pag-asa ba ang pagbabago?
Itigil na ang panggagago.
Huwag ka nang magtago.
Naku! Nakita ko na
Ang di ko alam.
Nagpapawis,
Sa huling bugso ng tag-araw.

Sa huling bugso ng tag-araw.
Mga huling araw ng kaligayahan
Bukas, pupuna ako sa UP Diliman upang magpalista sa darating na pasukan. Heto ako ngayon, inihahanda ang aking sarili sa isang papalapit na hamon. Anong yayariin ko para maisakatuparan ang aking mithiin? Sa kasalukuyan, ako'y nagbabasa ng isang librong na papamagatang "Word Power Made Easy". Ito ay isang malakas na kasangkapan sa papagpapataas ng kakayahan ninuman sa Ingles. Limang araw na ang lumipas nang sinimulan kong basahin ito. At maaari ko nang isaad ang hatol: "WPME ay napakabisa!"

Pagpipigil sa sarili
Ako may malaking problema. Kulang ako sa disiplina. Alam niyo bang kung ilang oras na naman akong nagcomputer ngayong araw ng ito? Isang malaking anim na oras! Oo, dapat ko nang itama ang aking kamalian. Ngunit paano ko ito gagawin? Nasa akin na ang sagot sa aking suliranin. Ang tanging hadlang lang ay ang ningas-kugon kong pagpapatupad ng kalutasan. Maghahanda ako ng isang talatakdaan na siyang gagabay sa aking pang-araw-araw na buhay. Ang usaping hukuman nanahan.

Kapanganakan ng isang blog
Ngayong araw na ito, aking nilikha ang isang blog. Ito ay katatampukan ng aking mga kaisipan at karanasan. Hangga't maaari, araw-araw akong maglalagay ng mensahe dito. Nawa'y manatili kayong interesado sa munting tala ng aking pagkatao. Ang blog na ito ay inaalay ko sa Poong Maykapal.

Time to Say Goodbye
Time pass by
Precious moments too
Could've been
Many questions
It wasn't ever

Lovers
we were never
However
A lesson learned
Forever treasured
Always there
Thank you
for your existence
It is enough

On Singlehood
I'm a bachelor. Oftentimes, I long for the day that I'll enter a relationship. I know that I must be a professional before jumping into one. I'd become a physician in ten years time.
Now, back to singlehood. I feel jealous when I see sweethearts holding each other's hands. Nevertheless, I realized, as young seventeen years old, that I ought to bravely accept that reality.
I say to myself, "You'll not be a single forever." But if ever I remain a single 'till death, I know that I won't be sad. Why do I say so?
Marriage is not the only form of companionship. Other forms exist: family, friends, community, locality, regional, national, continental, and international.

Thinking of you
I lie awake in my bed
Thinking of you
Pondering what life could've been
If you were only here
For me, you're the prettiest
Your beauty captivated me
Never imagined I'd fall in love
My life wasn't the same again
Please let me enter your world
Have a little faith in me
From thee, I beseech compassion
And utmost understanding

Crush kita
Alam mo bang crush kita
Kaya nga ang kulit ko e
Nasasaktan ako kasi hindi ka
nagrereply
This is the first time na nag-aral
ako sa co-ed na school
I like you because your physically
attractive
Moreover, I want to know you better
It all depends on your choice
Alam mo, ang gusto ko lang naman
ay makapagchat tayo
That's all
It is a small favor that I'm
asking, isn't it?
I know that what I'm doing right
now (opening myself and being
vulnerable) is foolish
Nevertheless, I've decided to tell
you the truth
You seem to be a nice person
Anyway, I like you to know that

Ikaw
Ikaw ang gusto ko
Ikaw ang crush ko
Sana mahal mo ako
Sana gayun din ang

Mahirap magmahal

Takot akong iwanan

Whenever I think of you
I don't know what to do
whenever I think of you
I start to drool
and turn into a fool
I can't explain it well
but let try as well
I need you here
'coz your my darling dear
I really favor you
'coz you're a splendid view
It's you I wanna watch
and the one I'd touch

Mahal kita
'Wag nang magtaka
Kung ako'y ganito
'Wag kang malito
Ikaw ang gusto
Ito ang totoo
Ikaw ang ganda
ng umaga
Pawiin ang luha
Tapusin ang dusa
Ang iyong kamay
Nagbibigay buhay
Ang mga ngiti
mula sa 'yong labi
ay tanda
ng pag-asa
Ang itim mong buhok
Saki'y humihimok
Ang 'yong mukha

Pansinin mo naman ako
Ako sa 'yo'y may pagtingin
Nais ko laging sambitin
Ang maganda mong pangalan
Makita ang 'yong larawan
Ika'y pakamamahalin
Lagi kitang susuyuin
Puso ko ay uhaw sa 'yo
Mapansin mo sana ako
Hindi ka ba naaawa
Mga mata'y lumuluha
Ako ay nagsusumamo
Pansinin mo naman ako
Nais ko laging sambitin
Ang maganda mong pangalan
Makita ang 'yong larawan
Ika'y pakamamahalin
Lagi kitang susuyuin
Puso ko ay uhaw sa 'yo
Mapansin mo sana ako
Hindi ka ba naaawa
Mga mata'y lumuluha
Ako ay nagsusumamo
Pansinin mo naman ako
Bakit ikaw pa?
Bakit mo ba ako ginaganito. Ewan ko kung bakit sa dami ng tao sa mundo, ikaw pa ang natipuhan ko! Hindi mo man lang ako pinapansin. Ang hirap talaga kapag umiibig ang isang nilalang. Lahat ng mga pangsangga ay ibinababa. Handang masaktan, hanggang sa puntong pagpaparaya.
Ano ba ang masama? Binata naman ako, dalaga ka. Pareho tayong walang relasyon. Oo, alam kong meron kang gustong iba. Oo, alam kong hindi ako ang gusto mo. Ngunit anong magagawa ko? Ikaw ang mahal ko. 'Bat 'di mo ako bigyan ng pag-asa? Mabuti naman ang hangarin ko sa iyo.
Kung ako ang pipiliin mong maging nobyo mo, buong puso kitang aalagaan. Tiyak, hindi kita pababayaan. Pinapangako kong magtatapos muna tayo ng pag-aaral bago tayo magpakasal. At magpapakasal muna tayo bago tayo magtalik. Lahat ng iyan ay pinapangako ko sa iyo.

Oh God
Thank you for being near
Thank you for being here
Wish this is forever
Let you go, I'll never
Won't you soothe my dry lips
Kiss me until it rips
Tightly, snugly hug me
Enflame me with your fire
Let's play the wrestling game
Your name can make me tame
I promise that you'll win
To you, I surrender

Loving Christ
Loving Christ shouldn't be difficult. He gave us many things that we now enjoy. Without Him, life would be unbearable. That's true, that's for sure.
How can you not love somebody who died for you on the Cross? Such an act is the supreme example of love--laying down one's life for one's friends.

Don't be
Don't be a computer addict
The computer will always be there
It will never leave you
When you leave and return, it will be there
The computer will always be there
It will never leave you
When you leave and return, it will be there

Sembreak 2004
Natulog ako ngayong araw na ito. Ibig sabihin, kagigising ko pa lang. Kaninang umaga, gumawa ako ng dalawampung katanungan para sa Caduceus Cup, ang inter-school high school quiz competition ng PMHS, ang organisasyon aking sinasalihan. Dahil sa batch project, medyo masama nga ang pakiramdam ko na parang mauubos ang aking sembreak sa pag-aasikaso ng aking mga tungkulin ko bilang applicant sa PMHS. Grabe, ang sakit talaga ng tiyan ko ngayon! Ewan ko nga kung bakit ako nagkakaganito. Parang ginagaya ko na tuloy si Mama sa kanyang pagkakaroon ng maraming sakit. Hindi ko ito gusto. Sa ganito, binabalak kong mag-excercise araw-araw simula bukas sa ganap na ika-5 ng umaga. Naiinis ako dahil maraming mga langaw ang gumagala sa aking pagsusulat at pinag-iisipan ko ring mabuti kung ako ay lilipat sa Economics o Philosophy. Kapag nag-aral akong mabuti, malalaman ko rin ito sa wakas.

To My Future Wife
Queer, this poem may seem
Like a capricious whim
I am deeply perplexed
Let yourself be annexed
Allow me to love you
What I need is a clue
With all haste, I shall start
Squeezing my loyal heart
And if I'm not that cool
I will you my best tool
It's one of the strongest
Your best put to the test
Like a capricious whim
I am deeply perplexed
Let yourself be annexed
Allow me to love you
What I need is a clue
With all haste, I shall start
Squeezing my loyal heart
And if I'm not that cool
I will you my best tool
It's one of the strongest
Your best put to the test

Ano ang pag-ibig?
Ang kahulugan ng pag-ibig ay sadyang napakarami. Ito ang dahilan ng pagiging masalimuot nito. Ngunit kung ako ang tatanungin, iisa lamang ang makahulugang depinisyon na dapat tandaan. Ito ay walang iba kundi ang hubo't hubad na katawan ni Hesukristo sa krus.
Ayon sa simbahan, ito ang tanging paraan upang ang sangkatauhan ay maisalba mula sa tiyak na paglaho. Kung gayon, ang pag-ibig pala ay pagtitiis. Ito ay ang buong pusong pag-aalay ng sarili para sa kaligtasan ng mga kaibigan.

Pinili ng aking puso
Hindi ko magagawang paluhain ka
Hindi ko magagawang saktan ka
'Pagkat ikaw ang iniibig ko
'Pagkat ikaw ang buhay ko
Ako'y malungkot sa 'yong paglisan
Basta't lumisan, ako'y iniwan
Handa akong maghintay
Hanggang sa aking pagkamatay
Mahal kita, higit sa iyong alam
Gusto kita, kung alam mo sanang
Kailangan kita, sa bawat sandali
Marahil, ikaw ang pinili ng aking puso
Hindi ko magagawang saktan ka
'Pagkat ikaw ang iniibig ko
'Pagkat ikaw ang buhay ko
Ako'y malungkot sa 'yong paglisan

War shouldn't be a Prerequisite of National Solidarity
War is a fortuitous event. This fact is incontestable and shall live through eternity. Magnanimous relationships broken. Incalculable damage incurred. Precious lives lost. Time and energy put to waste. Possible Golden Ages lost forever. No one wins. Everybody loses.
Undeniably, war is an efficient mover of capital. But it is a selfish process by which a party selfishly gathers its resources, strengthens itself, and eliminates opponents just to have more. Honestly, I don't have anything better to offer than war. But the fact remains--war is not an option. Other alternatives are greatly appreciated in this present time of history.

Mahal ko kayo
Mahal ko ang lahat ng tao
Na nasa ibabaw ng mundo
Ang pag-ibig na 'to'y dakila
Tulad ng apoy ng kandila
Ako ay handang magparaya
Upang ikaw ay lumigaya
Tatanggapin ang pagdurusa
Maging aking pagkapahiya

Carnal Call
It is here again
Let us now begin
This earthly ritual
Moment is crucial
Forgive me for I have sinned
My worldly soul is now thinned
Peace is full of violence
To the dead I give condolence
Hearing the carnal call
No longer standing tall
Taking a stupid fall
Death bell takes its toll
Let us now begin
This earthly ritual
Moment is crucial
Forgive me for I have sinned
My worldly soul is now thinned
Peace is full of violence

I love you
I love you
Can't you see?
To have you
I'll never do
I promise that
I'll take care of you
Protect you from evil
Be always near you
Your beauty
Is what attracted me
I'm a stranger
Who likes to discover you
You seem to be good
You seem to be nice
That's why I'll take chances
Put myself on the line
So please let me
Do touch your skin
Enslave me
Make me yours

Nagrorosary sila
Hay Naku! Nagrorosary nanaman sila
Can't they think of a better way to start the day?
They are making the retreat such a bore
Why indulge in such a monotony?
Life is dynamic
We should live it to the fullest
It shouldn't be just lived
It should be celebrated
It is in this regard
That I recommend innovation
Use your imagination
To make a wonderful creation
We are not machines
We should be unpredictable
To God we must pray
In His hands we must stay

Aking kalayaan
Haay, gusto ko nang lumaya
Mula sa 'yong kontrol
Mga gago kayo
'La kayong kwenta
Oo, mabigat ang kapalit nito
Pero okey lang po
Kakayanin ko ang lahat
Para sa aking dagat
Mula sa 'yong kontrol

Kakayanin ko ang lahat

My Crush
You are my one and only crush
When you are near, I become hush
And I suddenly feel this rush
Which makes my amiable face blush
I'm sincere in my statement
I would not fail the commandment
Thou shall not bear false witness
Honesty, the trait I possess
Your shimmering face is lovely
Your figure is trimmed and shapely
Those traits are sufficient reasons
For me to serve you for seasons
You're the woman who'll be my wife
If not, I'd rather lose my life
Destined by God to be with me
My elixir, you'll always be
You're the only treasure I have
My will is pure as a white dove
Now it's time for you to decide
Or else forever I shall bide
When you are near, I become hush
And I suddenly feel this rush
Which makes my amiable face blush
I'm sincere in my statement
I would not fail the commandment
Thou shall not bear false witness
Honesty, the trait I possess
Your shimmering face is lovely
Your figure is trimmed and shapely
Those traits are sufficient reasons
For me to serve you for seasons
You're the woman who'll be my wife
If not, I'd rather lose my life
Destined by God to be with me
My elixir, you'll always be
You're the only treasure I have
My will is pure as a white dove
Now it's time for you to decide
Or else forever I shall bide

A Lenten poem
Now is the season of Holy Week
In which God's forgiveness we must seek
And we should be heartily sorry
For the sins we made so that we won't worry
Now is the time for us to reflect
As we enter church we genuflect
To show gratitude and respect
Make it a habit, lest we forget
Jesus was crucified for our sake
All over again, whippings He'll take
Just imagine how deep His love is
We can thank Him by supporting peace
In which God's forgiveness we must seek
And we should be heartily sorry
For the sins we made so that we won't worry
Now is the time for us to reflect
As we enter church we genuflect
To show gratitude and respect
Make it a habit, lest we forget
Jesus was crucified for our sake
All over again, whippings He'll take
Just imagine how deep His love is
We can thank Him by supporting peace
Resistensiya
Wala pa akong pahinga
Dahil sa 'king pagbabasa
Kahit na 'ko'y tinatamad
Kailangan pa ring lumakad
Iniisip ko ang bukas
Mula ngayon hanggang wakas
Dapat akong magsumikap
Upang di ako maghirap
Kasangkapan ang tiyaga
Pati ang resistensiya
(itutuloy)

What is your kind of man?
I'm interested to know
What kind of man you like
So I can be one of them
So that you'll like me too
What kind of man you like
So I can be one of them
So that you'll like me too
Do you sense me?
Do you sense me?
Am I abstract?
Am I too unimportant
to remain unnoticed by you?
I know I'm a stranger
Somebody who took you by storm
For that, I ask you to forgive me
I'm sorry for doing so
Undeniably, that's the only way
I know you'll consider me
I hope you understand me
Can't you just befriend me?
I have no evil intentions
I want to love you
I like to share my life
with you, the one I love
But if you don't want this
anymore, I'll stop it
I guarantee you your freedom
I don't force myself upon others

The lady in the shadows
There she was
Walking by the hall
Glancing through the faces
Looking for her prey
There was she
Dancing at the party
Searching her mate
Taunting every male
She was there
Staring at the women
Scaring them at will
Sucking up their souls
Was she there?
Reality seems blurred
For no one ever saw
The lady in the shadows
Walking by the hall
Glancing through the faces
Looking for her prey
There was she
Dancing at the party
Searching her mate
Taunting every male
She was there
Staring at the women
Scaring them at will
Sucking up their souls
Was she there?
Reality seems blurred
For no one ever saw
The lady in the shadows
The Temptress
There she goes again
Testing my will
Checking my character
Waiting my fall
Why do you love to do this to me?
I haven't wronged you
Won't you stop stabbing my heart
It's fragile, open, and defenseless
Stop torturing me
I have endured many pains
Don't attack me at my weakest
For I'll inevitably collapse
Testing my will
Checking my character
Waiting my fall
Why do you love to do this to me?
I haven't wronged you
Won't you stop stabbing my heart
It's fragile, open, and defenseless
Stop torturing me
I have endured many pains
Don't attack me at my weakest
For I'll inevitably collapse
Why do I drive myself crazy?
I drive myself crazy
I always think of you
You are so beautiful to me
Can't you see my foolishness?
Do you advise me to stop?
Stop from your wretchedness!
Can't you do something else?
Why don't you put more meaning into your life?
Think of the people who love you
Try to show your gratefulness to them
You must be practical
The world is finite and small
You're just wasting your precious moments!
You are not feeling love
You are still incapable of it
How can you love others without loving yourself?
It's not right to have such an expectation.
So stop dreaming of her
Put your dreams into good use
And don't put it underneath the feet of others
I always think of you
You are so beautiful to me
Can't you see my foolishness?
Do you advise me to stop?
Stop from your wretchedness!
Can't you do something else?
Why don't you put more meaning into your life?

It's not right to have such an expectation.
So stop dreaming of her
Put your dreams into good use
And don't put it underneath the feet of others
Who knows?
Now, I know we aren't meant for each other
We are not destined to be together
I just wanna let you know that I'm sad
No longer share my life with you, too bad
But instead of harboring ill feelings
Guess I will just have to stop my yearnings
For once, you inspired me to do my best
Filled my life with hope, zest, and happiness
Although I can't have you this moment,
I'll continue my pursuit after Lent
May God guide us into our lives
And who knows, eventually we might jibe
We are not destined to be together
I just wanna let you know that I'm sad
No longer share my life with you, too bad
But instead of harboring ill feelings
Guess I will just have to stop my yearnings
For once, you inspired me to do my best
Filled my life with hope, zest, and happiness
Although I can't have you this moment,

Nangangarap nang gising
Nakatunganga ka nanaman
Diyos ko, ano ba naman iyan
Bakit ka ba nagkakaganito
Parang nasisira 'king ulo
Ika'y laging nasa aking isip
'Ko'y uhaw sa iyong mga halik
O, gusto kitang makapiling
'Ya'y 'sa lang sa 'king mga hiling
Aba! Talagang maganda ka
Itanong mo pa sa 'yong ina
Diyos ko, ano ba naman iyan
Bakit ka ba nagkakaganito
Parang nasisira 'king ulo
Ika'y laging nasa aking isip
'Ko'y uhaw sa iyong mga halik
O, gusto kitang makapiling
'Ya'y 'sa lang sa 'king mga hiling
Aba! Talagang maganda ka
Itanong mo pa sa 'yong ina
The Philippines
The Philippines is the country that I love. It is the land of my birth. It'll also be the land of my death. It formed me physically, mentally, spiritually, psychologically, morally, economically, and virtually my whole being. In it, my hopes, dreams, aspirations, and consciousness reside.
Why I stopped
You may ask why I stopped. You know why? Because when I do it, I feel that I'm just fooling myself. I realized that an activity which only brings ephemeral pleasure is not one of the habits worth keeping. It only makes a person a slave to the object of obsession. I believe many human beings, such as I, are locked up or put in bondage by such a vice. My whole being becomes subjected to a great risk whenever I engage in that particular act. I love myself and, consequently, I should love my personhood better by taking a more wholistic and holistic approach in living my life. And now, I promise myself not to let my body take part in such a worldly activity again. To all the temptations that come with it, I say: "Never again!"
Time
Time is gold
So they say
But by my way
It isn't
Time over gold
They aren't equal
Why such?
I'll explain
Gold spent
Can be earned back
But time passed
Can't be replenished

Will you marry me?
The distant stars are twinkling bright
The crescent moon is colored white
I believe the current time is right
Your eyes as nice as the night
My heart is beating very fast
Feel heavy as a big mast

Hold me
I want you to touch me
Just like you used to
Just hold my hand
For it brings me warmth
Chorus:
So won't you hold me
Hold me, hold me
Make your grip tighter
So I'll feel warmer
Oh!, it brings me joy
Hold me, hold me
Just like you used to
Just hold my hand
For it brings me warmth
Chorus:
So won't you hold me
Hold me, hold me
Make your grip tighter
So I'll feel warmer
Oh!, it brings me joy
Hold me, hold me

Maligayang bati
Ang araw na ito ay bukod-tangi
Kaya dapat ikaw ay ngumiti
Abril ang kasalukuyang buwan
At ngayon ay ang iyong kaarawan
Nararapat nating ipagdiwang
Pagkaluwal ng aking katuwang
Ka-eskwela, kaklase, kaibigan
Tunay, tapat, at maaasahan
Hinding-hindi ka niya iiwanan
Isa siyang matatag na sandigan
Isang taong ubod ng talino
Mapagmahal kahit na kanino
Nais ko lang ipahayag
Ang aking taos-pusong pahayag
Kaligayahan sa 'yo'y pupuno
Sa araw ng iyong pagkabuo
Mga kahilingan mo'y matatamo
Lalo na yung mula sa 'yong puso
Basta't huwag na huwag mong malimutan
Diyos ang iyong pasasalamatan

Paano?
Paano ba ako magtatapat
ng pag-ibig sa taong nararapat?
Paano ko sasabihin
ang aking mga saloobin?
Paano ko ipamamalas
ang pag-ibig kong wagas?
Paano ko ba sasambitin
ang 'king pinakatatagong lihim?
Sana'y paniwalaan mo ako
'pagkat 'di kita niloloko
Handa akong sumumpa
maging kay Bathala
Iniibig kita
Huwag ka nang magtaka
Sa taglay mong ganda,
lahat ay matutulula
Ang aking kapalara'y nasa iyong kamay
Ang aking buhay sa 'yo'y nakasalalay
Handa akong maghintay
habambuhay!

Noble Integrity
How far would you go
How long will you last
To preserve your name
To uphold your integrity
Is it unbreakable
Is it uncompromisable
It is up to you
It is your choice
Yes, the urge is there
The desire is intense
Will, also included
What is excluded
Time goes by
Time serves as a test
It tries you
Don't be caught off guard

Magandang gabi
Magandang gabi sa inyong lahat
Kayumanggi ba ang kulay ng inyong balat
Marunong ba kayong sumulat
Sa pamamagitan ng ating katutubong daglat?
O kabayan
Alam kong ika'y naguguluhan.
Hindi ka ba naaantok?
Baka gusto mo ng batok.
Igan, matulog ka na
Upang ika'y maging magana.
Magdasal ka
Bago mamahinga.
Dahan-dahan mong ipikit ang iyong mga mata
At sa iyong isip ika'y kumanta
Gawin ito para sa iyong ikaliligaya
Walang masama basta't huwag kang magpabaya
Ika'y laging tumalima
Huwag kang tatanga-tanga
Mahalin ang iyong sarili
Pati na ang iyong mga katabi

Inspired
I am inspired
to write even if I'm tired
I am blessed
to have luckily guessed
I am moved by the hope
that you'll never cut our rope
I am soothed by your kiss
whenever you're the one I miss
I am so grateful to God
for not making you that bad
I am so thankful
that you were wonderful
I feel my blood moving in a rush
It's so sudden just like a gush
Our mutual understanding is a testimonial
Of our irrational love that overrides every denial
And so to you I give my proposition
Through this short and simple composition
To you I offer eternal union
Will you be my lifetime companion?

Infatuation
Ever had this feeling
Heard your heart beating
Dum-di-dum-dum
Like a giant drum
Oh yes! Isn't she lovely
and also so comely?
On you my eyes are fixated
as if I'm a patient sedated
Your unwavering poison
intoxicated my reason
Not to mention
my engulfing passion
For me, you became more beautiful
You've made my world colorful
I was enamored by your smile
Through sheer brilliance and guile
I love your image on my mind
Really lucky with a great find
You're a treasure I'll always keep
Joys of life together we'll reap

Jitters
Oh no, I feel it again
Jitters inside of me
Please go away
You're no good
I feel scared
of making a mistake
I am shy
of my imperfections
Jitters inside of me
Please go away
You're no good
I feel scared
of making a mistake
I am shy
of my imperfections
Moving On
How does one move on
after a failure?
How does one stand up
after taking a fall?
Doing so is hard
You feel so hurt
In a state of isolation
You receive consolation
The road is not smooth
It is full of twists and turns
Surrounded by monsters
And no one to guide you
Isn't it ironic?
Doesn't anyone care?
You feel you're bare,
so vulnerable.
But you've got to face the odds
Take your chances
Put your faith in Him
Continue and dance to the rhythm
after a failure?

Notes on the Population Problem of the Philippines
Indeed, the Philippines is an overpopulated country. This overpopulation, per se, is not the crisis. The real problem is the proper feeding and the utilization of this population. As we all know, the Philippines, an agricultural country, is backward when it comes to agricultural development in terms of research and technology.
The use of contraceptives is just a short-term solution (if it is a solution at all) to this worsening problem. For me, the real solution is the empowerment of the population. The people should be given equal opportunities to access basic services. Their basic needs must be satisfied first before we can expect them to be more productive. They should be equipped with the technical know-how's through the process of education. Also, more lucrative jobs should be created so as to decrease the number of disgruntled individuals.

I am complete
Some people feel that
They are lacking
That they are outcasts
Whenever they are alone
"Not I", I murmured.
I am complete by myself
I'm not talking of being anti-social
I'm referring to deep reflection
"Incomplete" is the title of a song
Which had plenty of airtime
We shouldn't feel incomplete
By ourselves, we are complete
God made us complete
He endowed us with various abilities
Much more than we could ask for
Much more than what we need
We don't need partners
To complete our lives
We'll only be successful diplomats
First by being complete

Trust in the Lord
O Lord, I trust Thee
Thou art my shepherd
Thou guidest me
whenever I'm lost
I put my faith in You
A true friend, You
never failed to help me
never failed to nourish me
Under Thy care, I changed
Like the metamorphosis
of a butterfly
You transformed me
Have pity on me, my Lord
for I have sinned
I have disobeyed Your will
Many times, I denied You
You are the only one I adore
My eyes only on You
I feel safe by Your side
That's why I trust You, O Lord

Dead fantasies
The fantasies
which I have imagined
which I have dreamt of
are now gone.
They are now buried
in the dark cemetery
They will never
Rise from their graves.
Once, I liked you
I longed for you.
But now, I disgust you
And for eternity, I'll despise you.
I don't know why
I gave you the chance
to move over me,
to control me.
You still haunt me
but I don't care.
You're an abomination
of civilization.

Even if I haven't touched you
Still, I don't know
Who your mother is
I know your father
I am your father
I love you
I love my children

You
You're the reason
of my mission
You brought color
and flavor
to my life
Be my wife
I like your tone
and your bone
You're my rhyme

and be mine
I'm sweet

I can't sleep
I can't eat
I am weakened
by your smile
I am yours

I'm to be found
only by your side
Passion has
overcome me
I like you
I care for you
You're my soul
You're my hope
I'll love you

Wanna know you
I'm interested to know you.
For now, that's the only thing I'm sure of.
I feel shy but I can't help myself.
I've fallen into a pit from which I can't leave.
