Book 1: Yeng Verse-028

Tearful Good Bye

We have shared many happy moments
We didn't mind their bad comments
As long as we have each other
We will continue loving one another

But these things no longer exist
Because her beauty you can't resist
You said goodbye with some alibi
But I know what you said is a lie

I let you go with tears in my eyes
I ovecame the pain that petrifies
I know you'll never come back to me
It's okay as long as you're happy.

Young Achievers' Club

May God bless you always
And keep you under His grace
No one could touch nor hurt you
Not because you're powerful... but because...
You are loved by God.

Book 1: Yeng Verse-026

True friends are always there
Even though you don't seem to care
True friends never give up on you
'Coz they love you and care for you

True friends help you when you're in need
They don't become parasites indeed
They give you time because you're important
Though sometimes you get bossy and dominant

True friends treat you with fairness
They're true and not hypocrites
They're there because they're your friends
Not because you're rich and they need you.

PeaNUTS

Chess is the game you're good at
And the subject you like best is math
What else could I say about you?
Nothing more... but... I love you.

Book 1: Yeng Verse-024

Hurting Inside

You know how much pain there is
You know how hurt I will be
You know I won't be able to stand this
But you continued hurting me

It pains me to see you with her
It's the kind of pain which I can't bear
But I cannot do anything
'Coz to you I am nothing

I am hurting inside
All these tears I can't hide
The pain is too deep inside
The pain just won't subside

Loving you means pain within me
But I can't hate you, can't you see?
So what I'll do is to love you more
Though it'll just hurt me even more

I am hurting inside me
There is so much pain within me
My heart is bleeding, can't you tell?
Of course you can't... you're too far to feel it.

Book 1: Yeng Verse-023

Sana

Sana mapansin mo naman ako
Tagal ko nang naghihintay dito
Sana kahit konting ngiti
Makita ko sa 'yong labi

Sana sumaya ka naman kahi konti
Yung sayang totoo at 'di peke
Kasi mula nang matapos na
Hindi na kita makitang masaya

Sana mailabas mo ang yong problema
Para dibdib mo'y lumuwag-luwag na
Kasi 'pag naipon yan d'yan
Baka biglang sumabog ka na lang

Sana hindi mo dinidibdib
Sana hindi mo na lang iniisip
Sana maging katotohanan ito
Hndi para sa akin, kundi para sa 'yo.

(Untitled)

The more I try to go away from you
The more my heart shouts "I love you"
You know I have tried hard enough
But still my heart hadn't given up.

Book 1: Yeng Verse-022

I Don't Know How You Feel

I don't know how you feel, don't make me guess

I know you've got problems you can't face

But please don't kill me with your silence

The deafening silence engulfing us

I don't know how you feel coz you're hiding it

I want to comfort you but I'm fighting it

I know that you woldn't like it

But I, myself, couldn't help it

I don't know how you feel, you don't want to show it

I know you don't want me to pity you

So I've written this poem just for you

To persuade you to let your sadness out

I don't know how you feel, don't keep me guessing

I don't know how you feel, please stop hiding

I don't know how you feel, please start showing

For if you show your feelings, your heart will stop breaking.

Book 1: Yeng Verse-021

Gaano Mo Siya Kamahal

Gaano mo siya kamahal talaga
Ganon ba siya kahalaga?
Akala ko siya'y limot mo na
Ngunit ako'y nagkamali pala

Gaano mo talaga siya kamahal?
Ganon ba kalaki ang yong pagmamahal
Kahit na ika'y kanyang nasaktan
Siya pa ri'y di mo malimutan

Siguro nga'y ganon kalawak
At talagang napakabusilak
kaya handa kang magdusa
Makita lamang siyang maligaya

Ganon siguro kalalim talaga
Ang nararamdaman mo sa kanya
Kaya pagmamahal ng iba
Di mo na mapapansin pa

Ang puso mo'y para sa kanya
Kahit siya'y may mahal nang iba
Ang puso mo'y sarado na
At di ko na kayang buksan pa

Siguro nga'y ganon mo siya kamahal
Dahil siya ang unang minahal
Ganon mo nga ba siya kamahal?
Hindi ko alam... pagkat di ko masukat.

Book 1: Yeng Verse-020

I Love You

You know that I'm in love with you
Of course... I know you do
But I'm very thankful to you
You're not as conceited as other boys do

You kept on being friendly
As other boys will never be
You never intend to hurt me
And, for that, I'm really happy

You see? You made me happy
You made my heart feel free
Please continue to be friendly
To be kind and thoughtful of me.

Book 1: Yeng Verse-019

Wasak na Puso

Alam kong labis kang nasaktan
Nang ika'y bigla niyang iwan
Alam ko ang yong nararamdaman
Pagkat iya'y aking napagdaanan

Hindi mabilis na siya'y limutin
Pagkat alam kong ika'y mahal niya rin
Ngunit nagbago ang ihip ng hangin
Siya'y kasama na ng kaibigan pa man din

Ngunit kung siya'y lilimutin
Sana'y ituring na kaibigan pa rin
At kapag atas ng pusong siya'y babalik din
Sana'y pagbabalik niya'y iyong tanggapin

Ngunit puso mo'y iyong ingatan
Upang di na muling masaktan
At kung mangyayari man
Nandito pa rin ako... isang kaibigan.

Book 1: Yeng Verse-018

Isang Bulaklak

Bulaklak ang naging simula
Katapusa'y ito rin kaya?
Matamis na pagmamahalan,
Di ba't bulaklak ang pinagmulan

Bulaklak na bigay niya
Pinag-ingatan mong talaga
Para sa iyo'y ito'y tanda
Na ika'y di na luluha

Ngunit ano ang nangyari?
Bakit ikaw ngayo'y namumuhi
Sa taong iyong pinakamamahal?
Dahil ba siya'y may iba nang mahal?

Nakita mo nang bigyan niya
Ng bulaklak na maganda...
Tulad mo, babaeng iyo'y lumigaya
Ngunit tulad mo, luluha din siya

Bulaklak na tanda ng ligaya
Dala nito'y di laging saya
Maari ding ito'y tanda
Nang simula ng yong pagluha.

Book 1: Yeng Verse-017

Magkaibigan

Ang kailangan lang natin ay ang isa't isa
Upang magkaroon ng lakas at pag-asa
Pag-asang magkakaroon ng magandang bukas
At bawat problema ay ating malulutas

Hindi ko titignan pisikal mong kaanyuan
Sapagkat hindi mahalaga iyong kagandahan
Hindi ko rin kailangan ang taglay mong yaman
Basta't mahalaga ating pagkakaibigan

Ako'y di nangangailangan ng anuman papuri
Ang gusto ko lamang ay ang yong ngiti
Upang maibsan anumang suliranin,
Na makakaharap sa landas kong tatahakin

Tayo'y magkaibigan, alam kong alam mo yan
Handa kitang damayan sa saya at kalungkutan
Sapagkat ang yong kasiyahan
Ang tangi kong inaasahan.

Sais

Just or friendship keeps us bonded
Or was it God who really guided,
So we may meet in this path of life?
Everything, I know, is from God
Prophecy had told of a future for us
Hope it'll come true for the two of us.

Book 1: Yeng Verse-015

Are We Friends?

I have said "I love you"
But could you love me too?
I know that you couldn't
I know that you wouldn't

I said "It's okay"...
At least we're friends
Friends? Are we really friends?
Now, I'm beginning to doubt

Until now, I still love you
But this time I lost you
I know it's my fault...
Please give me a chance to change.

Book 1: Yeng Verse-014

At Least We're Friends

Many times, I've tried to tell you
A thing so personal but true
Not necessarily that you'll love me...
Just listen to what I'll say...
And please keep this to your heart...
Remember the sweet moments we had?
Ending those moments just like that?
So... you don't love me... it's okay, at least we're friends...

[of course it hurts coz I thought you have feelings for me].

Love!

Many things have passed my way
And yet it's still you I pray
Robbing my heart just like that...
Killing me slowly... with Love!

Book 1: Yeng Verse-011

Kaibigan?!

Nang unang magkita... At di pa magkakilala
'Kala ko'y yabang mo, Ngunit di naman pala
Ang bait mo pala, Turing ko sa iyo'y kuya
Ngunit bakit nagkaganito, damdamin ko'y nagbago

Minamanhal na kaya kita? Yan ang tanong ko
Sana nga'y hindi, Pero yan yata ang totoo
Sa ngayon, tayo lagi ang tampulan ng tukso
Kunwari'y ayaw ko, Ngunit ito'y gustung-gusto

Pa'no ko nga bang masasabing "Ika'y mahal ko"
Gayong lagi mong sinasabing siya ang mahal mo
At alam ko namang kaibigan lang ang turing mo
"Sayang... sayang!" Iyan na lang ang sambit ko.

Kanta: Noon, Ngayon at Bukas

Sabi mo noon...
... "I Love You, Boy"...
... pero di ka naman niya pinapansin...
... "All For Love" pa rin ang drama mo.
'Wa ka pa rin pansin...
... "Ano Ba Yan?!"
Say ko naman...
... "Humanap Ka Ng Pangit"...
Sabi mo, loves ka niya...
... pero... "Maalaala Mo Kaya?"
Nang tanungin mong... "Kailan"?
Pero don't worry... "I Swear"...
"I'll Be There"... "Always"
Naging "BLT" ang drama niyo...
Sinong talo?...
Sagot mo... "Ako Ang Nagwagi"...
"Good-bye"... ang... "If Love Is Blind".
