Michael Angelo

Sumandali ka lang sa aking isip / ngunit hindi ka na umalis. / Maaari na ba kitang ipagtabuyan? / Gusto ko nang makaidlip.//

Abiso

Bigyan mo ako ng abiso
kapag mawawala ka na
upang mapaniwala ko na
ang sarili kong
hindi na kita mahal

pala.

Epilogue to Six Years

I will try to be not the person who has always loved you, so long as you try to be not the person I have always loved.#

Six Years

Wala na nga ako riyan sa dulo ng mundo
nakalimutan kong sabihin-
Napapagod din ako.

Selos

Minamahal ka raw niya
mula ulo hanggang paa.
E kung pilayin kaya kita?

The problem with waiting

He waits for her at the end of the road
without realizing
she never started to walk.

Alam

now I know.
and now that I know
I cannot believe
I’m exactly where I was
when I still
didn’t know.

(Postscript: Is ignorance really bliss? Or would you rather know?)
