leaving, loving, living

haunted - by linh.ngân on Flickr

Awake again

I yawned and then

I noticed it’s still dark outside, and it’s cold

 

I went out for a walk

and to myself I talked

I realized that you were no more on my side

 

Seems you’ve forgotten ’bout the battle we were fighting

Was that a white flag you were waving?

 

.:.

Every single day I remember

Every single day we had together

Every single time I realize that we can never really go back

 

Every single step along the way

Every single step keeps getting harder

But if it’s the only way to live in the present

I’ll forget the past and learn to love again

And I wait for the next lyrics…

Things I said I didn’t do

My mind said I had no clue

But hear, I say this one’s true

Hear now, I do care for you

.

Forget the rhyme, I’ll start again

I’ll leave the time we had back then

’cause all the signs mean just the same

I’ll have to play the game again

.

Kapag nakikita kita

Lungkot ko’y nawawala

’sang ngiti lang ng ‘yong labi

Pagod ko’y napapawi

.

Why it’s your smile that brightens up my day

Whenever I feel not okay

My world which had been really grey

Gained colors when you came my way

she wrote a song with inspiration

sinulat ni laiza

This was given to me by my former classmate Alyssa Jean Madronio, shortly after I had given melody to her words. Literally.

The story was

One sunny day, Jean came to me with a sheet of paper. In it written are words. A poem I supposed. But it was not to be one. She wanted me to give make a song, whose lyrics are her words.

Of course I got excited. I asked her whether she already has a melody running inside her head. She had. (and whilest writing this, I was searching for my copy of the lyrics of the song. Just can’t find it. Just can’t.)

So we made the story short and came up with the song. Actually I think she heard it only once.

(and my copy is lost.)

(and that single piece of paper above, is the only thing I have left.)

I just realized

If I were to be in the music scene in the future, I would very much want to partner with Jean! Very Much!
