Soulmate

09 July 2007 / San Jose Occidental Mindoro

We’ve been seatmates

…we were classmates

But it never came to me

…that you were my soulmate

 

I spoke of love for you

But it never came to an m.u.

Now, I am happy were friends

But can’t it be more than that?

 

Funny how time goes

Foolish how I stand here all along

Still in love with you

Which just complicates the already complicated me

 

Is it you who called me your soulmate?

What made you do so?

Did I misunderstood it?

Are you falling for me too?

Detached

I am sad…

In a months’ time, a friend would leave

Eight moths after which I’ll do the same

I just feel the need to detach

 

I want to let go of this ill feeling

I want to hold on to the happy ones

I want to live my life as I did before

That is just to go around and play

 

Can’t it be just like that?

Can’t things remain constant?

Can I just go back…

To the days when we just laugh?

 

Nothing’s constant!

Only water becomes stagnant…

We just have to accept the fact

Move away and do the act

 

I want to detach!

But is there a need to detach?

I want to be happy!

How can I…when I just want to flee?

 

Is everything that feels bad bad?

Is everything bad calls to be detached?

Is detachment the only way not to feel bad?

What am I supposed to then God?

Pause

05 July 2007 / 10896 Catalan Compound, UPLB

We’ve met

You never left

A fact you made me believe

That a morning waits after the eve

 

We’ve shared memories

We poured our bond with cement

Stuck together

I want to stay here forever

 

Fact is, cement wears out

One of us needs to move out

And our time here

Approaches its end which is my fear

 

Sibling you were to me

Together, we built a family

And now’s the time to say goodbye

I hate it when I have to cry

 

I’ll see you then my friends

And what we have will never end

Time for us will just take a pause

When we see each other again, we’ll know the cause

Mat!

I knew of someone

Who chose to be unique

He was loved by everyone

With his funny antics

 

At times, he was crying

Many times, he was hurting

But it never seemed a burden

For us-his friends to be saddened

 

We’ll surely miss this guy

Oh, how sad it is to say goodbye

But for you to find your way

Is our hearts desire as we pray

 

The hope of seeing you someday

Remains as we part ways

Looking forward to that day

And to reminisce our silly ways

 

Sadness inevitably fills in

But happiness is what we want you to bring

To that place where you’ll set in

To that place where you’ll be springing

 

We love you Rowell

Bring with you the joy and laughter

You may leave us crying and in a shatter

For in our hearts, you’re someone that matters!
