The Last Lines for you

Tonight I can write the saddest lines.

Write for example, 'The night is shatteredand the blue stars shiver in the distance

'The night wind revolves in the sky and sings

.Tonight I can write the saddest lines.
I loved her, and sometimes she loved me too.

Through nights like this one I held her in my arms.I
kissed her again and again under the endless sky.

She loved me, sometimes I loved her too.
How could one not have loved her great still eyes.

Tonight I can write the saddest lines.
To think that I do not have her. To feel that I have lost her.

To hear immense night, still more immense without her.
And the verse falls to the soul like dew to a pasture.

What does it matter that my love could not keep her.
The night is shattered and she is not with me.

This is all. In the distance someone is singing. In the distance.
My soul is not satisfied that it has lost her.

My sight searches for her as though to go to her.
My heart looks for her, and she is not with me.

The same night whitening the same trees.
We, of that time, are no longer the same.

I no longer love her, that's certain, but how I loved her.
My voice tried to find the wind to touch her hearing.

Another's. She will be another's. Like my kisses before.
Her voice. Her bright body. Her infinite eyes.

I no longer love her, that's certain, but maybe I love her.
Love is short, forgetting is so long.

Because through nights like this one I held her in my arms
my soul is not satisfied that it has lost her.

Though this be the last pain that she makes me suffer
and these the last verses that I write for her."

Pahingi ng Kulangot

Nakasakay sa jip pauwi ng bahay
di ko nga alam bakit di pa ako nasanay
mabahong daan, mabahong lugar
mabahong bayan at dugyot na pamahalaan

Bumaba sa jeep, naglakad sa kalye
etong lugar ko, daan puno ng tae
tae ng aso, tae ng pusa
tae ng batang walang salawal at walang tirahan

dumaan sa divisoria, nkita ang mga tindahan
my mga mamang tumatakbo
susko walang bago
nakawan nanaman.

napadaan sa simbahan
nkita mga kabataan
kala ko mga banal
simbang ligawan, tangina walang katapusan

diretso lang ulit
gusto ko nang umuwi ng bahay
pagod na akong maglakad
pagod na akong maghintay
sa lecheng pagbabago
na sinasabi ng pangulo
leche! tarantado!

dumaan sa dating eskwelahan
wow my park! wow ang linis naman
pero teka bkit ganon?
ung mga tambay doon
mga pakantot at patapon?

sawa na ako sa amoy
sawa na ako sa alikabok
humahalo sa uhog ko
ang sang sang at bulok na sistema ng gobyerno
sawa na ako
halika na tanggalin n natin to!

mga pare kumilos na tayo! pahingi ng kulangot nyo!
