To The Friend I Never Knew

To the friend I never knew we'd be friends
Well we had a lot of mutual friends since then
We see each other in the hallway
But just became friends until one day.

To a friend who requested for poetry
Sorry, can't think of a metaphor for a fine lady
This may not be an award winning piece
Hope my dedication would suffice.

To a friend who chats at random hours
And tells me their dish and i'll tell what's ours
Says she's hungry and tells the food she wants to eat
Looks for sardines and the sausage's her favorite.

To a friend I had long walk into the market
To buy some needs for an upcoming event
Glad you enjoyed the walk though it's tiring
And enjoyed the food you bought while walking.

To a friend who dreams the same as mine
Achieving the three-letter title is next in line
Hope we could help each other from time to time
To pass the board examinations in one time.

To a friend who gave me a gift
I was surprised, but it's food, I cannot keep
So glad that day that I really appreciate
Please accept this poem to reciprocate.

To the friend I never knew... much yet
There's still more to learn on days we meet
Thanks for a friendship we had for a year
Best wishes for your birthday, cheers! :)

Gravity wins

Who would have thought
This feeling will come again
The thing that for years I fought
To never fall in love again

Though this love cannot provoke
To catch the fish in the ocean
Yet the divers find her in every stroke
Let the fish swim into my own land

Sometimes I think
Should I write this poem to feel
And waste some time, and paper, and ink
There's no chance to tell her what's real

Or should I tell her
Wonder what could she feel
If in love we're meant together
Would love spoil and spill?

Oh love tell me what to do
You've been confusing me again
For now, one thing is true
I fell, fell in love, gravity wins.

With this love, please teach me
Teach me how to feel again
I abandoned the idea of love in my memory
Teach me in all the ways I've forgotten

Crying Boy

At last, I finally found the one
To give me love and share me joy
Within her sight she makes me stun
And leave me thinking I'm not a crying boy.

You care, I care, we love, we grow
We grew up in love that we promised together
This spark is known as finest glow
The trigger of believing forever

To prove our love is just natural
Become the best of the 'husbands and wives'
To fight for love is just ideal
But why did we end up different lives

The love we had, we shared so far
Is beyond compare to the love for the next
I still wish there's 'us' on the brightest star
That you will remember, and send me text.

I thought I moved on when I found another
Eliminate the craziness and feelings of blue
But why in the nights I still go wonder
I still sleep with the thoughts of you

I thought I grew up with you
We just spent time together like a toy
In the end, my eyes are like raining view
I am still the crying boy.

First Time For The Second Time

In the field of black flowers, you stood up in white
In the clouds of the blue sky, see you flying as kite
When I prayed for an angel, the heaven sent you
This is you in my eyes, the first time I met you.

When I look at you, I can see our beautiful future
Like in trials and hindrance, all things we can endure
I went near you, talked, laughed, and introduced myself
The preface of our book to put on the shelf.

Writing an unforgettable story is never perfectly done
But serenading you traditionally is probably the best one
Just look at how grandparents stay together until today
Compared to our generation of lover's 'come what may'.

As teenagers cry when hearts had been broken
As parents believe that new love is forsaken
We still believe with each other to stay
We fought the fight whatever others would say.

The flowers were red, the chocolates are brown
Happy are the days we're together, forgot how to frown
The carpet is delicate red, your dress is purely white
We had the wedding, and made love at the first long night.

We are four on this big squared red-tinted roof
Eating favorite flavors of ice cream with unlimited scoop
We grew big, our loving family and your beautiful body
As we happily welcome a newborn baby.

Our love suddenly had a roller coaster ride
Events turned up and down, side by side
What on earth did I do to make this happen?
She got mad and we're never together again.

We had misunderstood quarrel ended with words of swords
Went out drank beers I can buy, but say sorry I cant afford
I got messed up by a girl on fire, put me too on fire
On the cold soothing morning, woke up in bed I'm a liar.

The sorry is too late, the damage got bigger
I guess we are never meant to be together
I would correct all imperfections if I could just bring back time
Can we meet again like it's first time for the second time?

The house is burnt with anger but the soil is still there
Maybe we could start building the home with care
Just forgive me once, we'll be back on track
That mistake, we'll just laugh at it on the future when we look back.

I guess I will no longer need time machine to manipulate time
Because I no longer need to meet her first time for the second time
A sincere and pure love and faith can overcome the heaviest crime
Think well of what is most worthy, indeed the most valuable is time.

Boom Casoy! SUGOI!!!

Una sa lahat, magready ka na ng tissue. Pero hindi ka iiyak ah.. Baka kasi sumakit tiyan mo sa sobrang haba nitong article eh. Maglabas ka muna. HAHAHA. Seryoso ako kuha ka na ng tissue.

To start, I never expected to have a friend with more than ONE HUNDRED THOUSAND MESSAGES in the conversation thread. But I am expecting more messages, links, pictures, videos, kpop stuffs, jeje stuffs, chicser stuffs, other stuffs, hearts, stickers, foods to come. :)

Una tayong nag-usap, sa Facebook. Madalas tayong magkausap, sa Facebook din. Naging close tayo, sa Facebook din. Ano kaya nangyari kung wala ang Facebook no? Hahaha pero buti na lang talaga nandyan ang Facebook dahil naging kaibigan kita. Ako yung tipong madaldal na gusto lagi ng kausap, buti na lang nakilala kita, pasensya na kung lagi kitang nadadaldalan pati mga sikreto ko naidaldal ko na sayo. Hahahahaha. Salamat sa Facebook. :D

Now, let's talk about purpose in life. Kung naiisip mo minsan, lalo na kapag naddepress ka, na hindi mo alam ang purpose in life mo, bigyan kita ng isang bagay na pwede mong isipin para mawala na ang lungkot mo. Napakaimportante nito. Nang dahil sayo, naging kaibigan ko kayo. Naging close friend kami ni Hannah dahil pinadala mo sakin yung Maxx candy, napasama ako sa circle of friends mo in which hindi naman talaga ako part noong magkaklase pa tayo. Akalain mo friends pa kami ni Teng kahit di man ako masyado kinakausap hahahahahhahahahaha. Nabuo din ang Teng Agency, hindi naman dahil kay Teng, kundi sayo. Pag naiisip ko pano nangyaring biglang kayo na ang circle of friends ko, kahit saang anggulo tingnan, ikaw ang dahilan. Salamat. :)

To add, paano nalang kung hindi tayo naging close nung third year na tayo? Mag-isa ako sa section namin. At buong taon, hindi ko man sila naging circle of friends dahil bago pa ko dumating sa section na yun eh magkakatropa na sila. Maliban na lang kay Syril na loner din. HAHAHA. If not for you, siguro loner na rin ako. Although friendly ako, madaming kaibigan, sikat (ahahhaah), eh iba pa rin yung may maaasahan at mapagkakatiwalaang kaibigan.

Sa mga sinabi kong hart hart ko, wag mo pagsabi ah, hahahaha ako na lang magkakalat ng hart harts ko. Di ko naman ikinakaila na madami sila lol. Lahat yata nasabi ko na sayo eh. From gradeschool hanggang kay koreana seoulmate. Wala pa akong makitang kasunod eh, pero ikaw na unang makakaalam nun sige. Benefit of being my friend, pwede mo na akong ibalita sa dyaryo at sa media. LOL. Gusto mo ng clue? :D Abangan mo magpapapresscon ako. LOL Feeling artista talaga eh ahhahahaha. Pero para fair. Ireveal din natin yung sayo. Papicture kayo ni Pugo. Hehehehe

This is so unlikely of me. Hahaha.

Di ko alam pano ko pa papahabain to kasing haba ng conversation threads natin eh. Tatapusin ko na dito yung article na to.

Basta thank you very much for being my friend. Don't worry, kung naddepress ka, you can always talk to me, kahit anong sabihin mo, ang importante eh may masabihan ka dahil mas kailangan mo yun. Oo nga pala, malamang hindi ko alam pero pasensya na kung may mga nasasabi man ako na di mo gusto pag kausap mo ko. HAHAHA straight ako magsalita, sinasabi ko gusto kong sabihin. Alam mo yan :D

Kamsa hamnida! Saengil chukha hamnida! :D FIGHTING! :)
PS. Tumutugtog yung Ordinary Song ni Wang habang ginagawa ko to. :D So alam mo na kelan ko ginawa to? :D

What A Man You Are

WHAT A MAN YOU ARE!!!!!

By Hannah Antonio

Dear Zhab,

This opportunity I grab

To respond and thank you

For everything and the handsome view

You are a man like no other

A woman that can never shutter

You bring this sunshine

That makes me fine

Your face I was amazed

For the cheeks that make me shriek

Oh, I jest ‘cause I was stressed

I couldn’t find a word I confess

What a man you are

Always there for us even if you are far

The things you give to us, even small

Are the things we appreciate all in all

What a man you are

Saying you are handsome

A punch, you want some?

I jest again in this hour

What a man you are

Blessed with a good heart

And blessed with a good brain

Someday, with your dream, you’ll go far

I’m glad you took my challenge

And knew some of your thoughts of me

This I give because I am in glee

Make me more in glee by giving me some milk tea

My heart is not truly the prize

Your desire I know and I smize

No, it’s not French fries

But it’s some extra rice

Posted here the way it was given to me. No editing.
This poem is a response to:

Hannah Banana Split

I take this challenge because you told me to
And I don't know how to start this too
So here's a question to start this intro
Hannah, what can I say about you?

First of all, I'm grateful that we're like close friends
It's unexpected, but I hope it never ends
To me, not just a friend, you're godsend
No more FO, so friendship won't suspend. :)

What else can I say about you?
Would you mind telling me about you too?
Is there are part of you that's blue?
Tell me how I can help or give me a clue.

Let's dig in deeper to make sense in this poem
"What do you feel when you're with him or see him?"
I'm not interested with the answer but you know who's 'him'
Well, I didn't say a name but you thought of him. ;)

Now let's move on to accounting... STOP?
No, I won't discuss or give some stuffs
Let me just describe you in words and pickups
It's up to you to think if fact or bluff. :D

If you're an asset, you're like a Land
Because for now you 'appreciate' in your age and
I'm not saying you're hampaslupa with the sand
You 'appreciate' because you're growing, understand? :D

If you're a liability, would you like to be?
But we all have to be a liability
For the good that people have given to thee
You have to offer back the good given to thee.

If you're an equity, you are the reserves
Because you belong to someone who deserves
You have unrealized gains with verves
That someday you will realize as life will serve

In the income statement, you can't be sales
Because a woman like you is not for sale
But don't worry your business is doing well
Because you are still an income to tell.

Are you goods on consignment?
Because even you're held by others, I know you're mine
Are you an operating lease?
Because they will hold you only for a while, and return to me after a while. :D

Are you an asset, like a model?
Because you're so beautiful that they want to own you.
Are you a goodwill?
Then you should join Ambassador of Goodwill. :)

Stop with these pickup lines, I have something to share
People have asked me before if I like you, are you aware?
Before I give you my answer, I also have a dare
To make this poem interesting, and make it fair. :D

The question was simple when I was asked, it's shocking though
Now, how would you react if I said 'Yes' or if I said 'No'?
Whatever we will say, it won't affect us two
Because of course, as a friend, I will always like you.

I do not expect this poem to be very long
But this could be longer if I knew you more all along
I hope our ties would be stronger than strong
In Teng Agency, we will always belong. :)

But wait, where are the metaphoric statements?
To have this poem like a sentiment
Where art thou the message so sweet and frequent
Words of wisdom has to be present

People are looking for golds at the end of the rainbow
But looking for you isn't at the end, you are the rainbow
And people wait for rain to end just to search for the rainbow
I'd rather enjoy the rain until you show up - the rainbow

Until now, I see you as a sea of mystery
I know less, but I'm diving to see
I was wrong, I don't have to dive coz you're the treasury
A friend more precious than any jewelry

You're a realistic book that I have to keep
Put myself as bookmark on the pages to clip
I'll keep reading til the end the pages I will shift
Like learning you while I am travelling in your life as bookclip.

I end this poem as I give you thanks
Wondering how you bear with my pranks
How could you stand being my friend as I think
But don't tell me, just signal the wink. ;)

This poem is longer than how I won in cba days
This could rank higher than the first place
Okay, now I am waiting your loving heart for the prize
Just kidding, I just have to eat some more extra rice. :)
