Kinabukasan

Sa tuwing iniisip ko ang kahihinatnan ng binubuo nating relasyon, ‘di ko maiwasang ngumiti. Ito pala ang pakiramdam na makahanap ng taong gusto mong makasama sa bawat bundok at lambak ng buhay.

Too Much Love

Writing about love isn’t hard for me ’cause I’m filled with love to share. But would you believe me if I told you that love…terrifies me sometimes.

I Don’t Like You

I don’t like you. I don’t like you for your appearance. What I like is how you do your best to maintain and present yourself. I don’t like you for your money.

For all I know, you might still be carrying the same burden today. Now in 2024,Continue reading “Still here”

You must know

I wonder how confident you are with your knowledge of me. There’s no denying that you already know about the things that make me smile. I mean, you’re in that list.

We were here

We were there at Macao. Where you secretly took a picture of me trying to take a photo of the huge teddy bear. We had caramel hair and matching phone cases. You almost left that yellow bag after we ran around places. We were there at Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf. Where we had ourContinue reading “We were here”
