Suicide Letter

this is the reason why…

somewhere between our laughs..

our long talks and all our little jokes

i fell in love with her…
there was a time when she made me happy…

she’s the one i love..

with every piece of my heart.

without her.. I’m nothing

i can’t live without her

i love her…

and I’ll never know whether she loves me
please help me…
my heart is broken and i think I’m going to die.

i still love her though.
the only person I’ve ever truly loved.

has left me with a broken heart.

my world came crashing down.. when i realized..

i was holding onto a dream that was never going to come true.
I’m so confused…

should i smile because we’re friends?

or cry? because that’s all we will ever be…
breathing is such a task..

when i don’t have her.

i love her so much…
but i still love her…

with all the little pieces of of this wasted…

…broken heart of mine.

and every day…

i look in the mirror..

i see the same broken heart.

but the hardest part about walking away..

is knowing..

…she won’t be running after me.
tears are forever

streaming down my face..

she doesn’t know..

…and she wouldn’t care.
tonight…

when i settle down to rest..

…you can be sure it’ll be her I’m crying over..

and i can be sure

…it’ll never end.
another lonely night… with empty dreams

so… now you know the reason…
good bye my lover, good bye my friend

you have been the one…

…you have been the one for me.
good by my lover, good bye my friend.

i will always love you.

I’m Sorry Please Forgive Me

Oh I have a lot to say was thinking of my time away
I missed you and things weren’t the same
Cause everything inside it never comes out right
And when I see you cry it makes me want to die

I’m sorry I’m bad I’m sorry you’re blue
I’m sorry about all the things I said to you
And I know I can’t take it back
And I just wanted to say I’m sorry

This time I think I’m to blame
It’s harder to get through the days
You get older and blame turns to shame

Every single day I think about how we came all this way
the sleepless nights and the tears we’ve cried
its never to late to make it right
all right sorry

Every single day I think about how we came all this way
The sleepless nights and the tears I’ve cried, I’m so sorry i was not so right.

If God didn’t want me to help others heal, then He sure wasted a lot of life’s lessons on me.

Definitely Indefinite

True to the soul.

A feeling unknown.

An assumption affirmed.

Denied when actions speak lou’er than words.

So much things to say,

So many things unsaid.

Whisper it all to you,

Then rejected after a time not two.

Would it be so hard to say no?

Say words like live me alone?

It’s fine I thought until tonight.

When it ended after it began.

You think too much maybe,

I’m not runnin’ chasin’ you.

For honestly, I’m ahead waiting for you.

when tears fell

not long then, a day of celebration,
where every muslim was rejoicing,
the day of ramadhan had wave goodbye,
as we empty our voice to say praises,
a moment after the prayer and celebration,
i had the chance to meet you.
a moment i never left away,
when interest was on place,
the gladness and joy fill the space.
the connection remained,
till my heart jumped high,
a moment of breath was taken away,
you caught my emotion wide awake.
afraid, yet thrilled,
love was over and spilled.
yet i could not offer my feelings,
for you have been owned not mine.
was it my fault i met you too late?
that i could not express my love out of fate?
sorry if i told you my emotions,
but i’m more sorry when you said you felt the same.
how could i keep you?
how could i be with you?
when seas are away.
when mountains are up high.
when even your smile i couldn’t set an eye.
emotions gone wild.
feelings go stronger.
but the reality remains,
we are fooling no one but ourselves.
at the end of the day, you’d say goodbye,
and again, i’m left to die.
when paths are taken, i cry.
when this path you take, i wish,
that can you be mine?
i’m sorry if i caused you pain.
i was so confused what to say.
you wanted me to stay,
even if you were telling me your goin’ away.
but if chance was mine…
and if fate was of my power.
and if He who owns my soul would grant me,
i’d ask one thing if you’d be with him.
Keep her safe, keep her happy,
for she taught my heart to beat once more.

When She told me She Cried

Recently, I never really care of what people think of me. All I really do care about is what I feel for other people, how I connect with them, how ties are made… how bonds are strengthened. Until she told me one thing that somehow got a dagger in my heart lifts a bit higher. Some people really do understand.

I make posts in the blog, simply because, most of the people (I think) who read it are those not close to me, strangers perhaps, so I never thought of it as a big deal. I even told someone before, “If you visit my blog in friendster, it’s probably half of who I am”. I wasn’t just jesting with I said that.

I’m a loner, or should I say, I like to stay alone more often than being with my friends. I go to the rooftop and stay there, look at the sky, talk to the Almighty, whispering, while my heart speaks aloud my emotions. I often tell Him my mistakes, my sins, my shortcomings, my wishes, my desires, and “her”.

Denied with all the things I desired when I was young, and as I grew up, I can say, definitely I didn’t need these stuff. Not long ago, I had the chance to become rich, a chance to earn P3,000-P5,000 weekly for the first few months and at maximum of around P15,000 a week after. I was already listing the things I want to buy when I’m gonna get my 15K… Until a knock on my head, I realized, I’m losing my faith… I’m spending more time counting money than thanking Him. Beat that Mr. Supervisor!

I’m done with life as many see it. Dreams can be fulfilled, I’ve seen that, but I chose not to take it. Coz I ask myself one question I couldn’t answer, “When all my dreams come true, what will be next, shall I continue dreaming until the end?”. What kind of life is that! A life of counting dreams as much as fulfilling it!? It’s a constitution of never ending symphony that doesn’t fit any end except death.

I wish to make a difference. That’s what I want. That’s what I wish for, something different. Something people seem to wish for as if they think it would never happen. Ever since college, I always want to beat norms. I want to defy the bars they set.

And she asked me, “Have you really gone over it.. Have you really moved on?”

This question can’t be answered by a yes or a no. But I can say… I’m listening on the flow of the stream, wishing, it would cross mine.

Many people say, “I’ll never look back… For my past caused me Pain”… or something like, “My past is something I must forget” or, “(s)He’s a part of yesterday I’ll never look back”…. I tend to laugh at them actually, cause how sure are they that what they are running away from is still behind them and not waiting in front of them?

I’ll tell you guys one thing… Especially who told me I made her cry just reading my blogs. It’s a compliment I’d take till my last breathe. If someone was so touched with my blogs… I hope I’ve made you smile too after awhile.

My life is like a book. Every striking chapter is found here in my blog. Every memorable part is definitely noted. But my diary is in my heart (or in my room). And if you wake up around 1 or 2 am in the morning (Philippine time), try to look out at the sky, coz probably, I’m doing the same thing.. and for sure, we are under the same roof of clouds or stars up above. Think of me.. Think of me praying alone, whispering to the Almighty, sitting alone, with my heart screaming for everything I could not say.

In the Midst of them All

It was not a very unusual case.

A day like this was not another page I haven’t seen yesterday.

Repetition, redundancy, a plain look back.

Was it just a smile, or maybe another way of hiding the knock out?

A friend told me before, we were talking about a lot of things, life, school, work, relationships, and what we can say of today. And he told me a lot of stuff, and I listen too. When it was my turn, a couple of topics was just I wanted to offer, but sometimes, intrigue really makes a big BIG difference. Cutting the long story short, his line was, ” Tol, kahit saan tingnan, para sakin, bastante ka na…”. I was quite puzzled what he was trying to tell me, and what really was his point how come “bastante”.

It took me a lot longer than the usual but still, I figured it out. He was pointing out about what there was with me and the things that happened to me. Yah, I could say, he is somehow correct. A thing or two, or maybe more might have been true. Nonetheless, the question remains, NOW WHAT?

The door was closed already, I for one only sits on one side. I’m waiting for something, or maybe someone. A certain event, that which I’ve been longing for for so long. After that, I don’t know what’s next.

By March 2010, a new door shall open. Another chapter closes and I need to write something new in life. A turning point I must take. After that, everything in my past shall be a long memory. No more strings, no more attachments.

But how I wish I could say sorry…

To the people I’ve caused pain, again and again. To the people who caused me pain, I still say sorry. For I believe, you wouldn’t have done such to me, if I was doing something right. Oh how I wish a simple opportunity to ask for an apology would be available. And if I could give something in return to take back my mistakes. I wish I could. I really wish I could.

One person, a very significant person in my life… I have caused her pain. And when I realized I did, it was too late. Again and again I ask for her to forgive me. Her reply was a simple smile with the words, “I’ve forgiven you long before you asked forgiveness”. But I can surely see. That my mistake, that which I made, bares a huge scar in her life I could not undo. Not even a sorry can erase.

So how much more to those I haven’t asked for forgiveness? How much more for those I’ve caused more than a million times of pain? To those who cried waves of tears? Sleepless nights? Even suicides?

My conscience is killing me….

It has been killing me for so long…

If in one way or another, you reading this post is someone I caused pain. Please tell me, let me take the punishment.. somehow….

My Dad’s Advice, that’s why I’m Proud of Being a MUNJILUL

As I always said, the pain will always be here… it may never go away… but my father told me the other night when he saw me so blue and i just got off my room after much contemplating and some few tears… he said

“you were never the perfect boyfriend from the time i knew you had a girlfriend after you graduated high school. you were so hurt that time you cursed love and the act of loving. you wanted to take revenge to all those girls who you committed up with. Many of them cried coz you broke their hearts when they didn’t do anything to deserve such. You were a playboy, you were not the man you are right now. And until you met this girl, he kept you, put you on a strong hold, until you realized you’ve fallen again. Then she broke your heart. You didn’t have proper eating habits for 2 months, you didn’t sleep at night and if you ever fell asleep in the morning or afternoon, it wouldn’t last an hour. You were hospitalized just because of that. You never stopped crying everyday. The tears kept falling for 5 months. Until there was someone new. Who healed your broken heart. You forced yourself to fall in love with her. You thought you were in love. Until you ex knocked your heart again for another chance. You were committed that time, yet you still took her back. You left the girl who healed you for more than a year for the one who caused you pain. And now, she did it again, for the second time around. I see you wounded, in sorrow and in pain. The tears came flowing again. The eating habits start to take it’s entrance. The sleepless nights are now obvious. Anak, look at yourself. Think of this as a payment of the things you did. Does the total amount of pain you feel right now and the pain you felt before equivalent to all the pain you caused for all those other girls you left? Does your tears you fall have the same amount of weight combined compared to the tears you made those other girls fall? Remember, it’s better to feel pain, sorrow and shed tears, than to let others experience it. Coz now you know how it feels, you can do more in the future not to cause them. And you know that Allah punishes our wrong deeds in the Day of Judgment, it’s better if he’d punish you here than there, where it wouldn’t have the same degree.”

Forgive me if it’s kinda long.. I memorized his words, but it was in our local dialect (tausog). I was looking for the right words to translate it in english…

masi masi wayroon ko liyulupa

bunnal sa ako in namin katu karuwa
minig ha hula bang hawnu piyagtanum in kasi iban lasa
in katan sin jimatu yadto, way piyagtuuran
pangatayan ko landu kiyapalian

ha jaman sin pagbak sin ulan iban suga
baran ta in namungat sin paglasa
mayta baha kita ini nagkabihaini?
unu na marayi in gantaan sin katan ini

dum adlaw way paghali ha pagtalian

byaun kiyapasaran na ha laum kasusahan

run away me thy en…
run away with ur hart once again.

i will say not a thing,
but u know more than my everything,
id trade ds life,
just for one more day with the partner
of my en…

So Impossible

So she says
Everyone’s going to the party,
won’t you come if I come
with a friend for your friend?
I’d be so pleased to see you
out of the classroom wearing the smile that I’ll bring you.
I was hoping to learn a few things like..
Do you do you like dishing the dirt
on the whole class &
talking the big smack &
playing the fool &
wearing all of the latest fashions
or bucking the new trends
wearing your old threads.
If you like taking a cup of coffee in the evening.
These are a few things that I’d like to know that I’d like to know

So I said…
I’ve been scheduled to work but I’ll call in and my friend isn’t busy
he’d be happy to join me
and maybe my friend
and your friend
will hit it off or maybe we will?

I’m dying to know
do you do you like dreaming of things
so impossible or only the practical
or ever the wild or waiting through all your bad bad days
just to end them with
someone you care about
and do you like making out
and long drives and brown eyes
and guys that just
don’t quite fit in
yeah do you like them
So yes, I’ll see you there.
