The Deep

Sometimes, a person's depth goes unnoticed. But, there are times that it finally gets the attention that it so rightfully deserves. Sometimes, there are friends who sacrifice and bears the burdens of others. Sometimes, there are people who show you that they're okay and outwardly smile, but deep inside, they're holding something really heart-tearing. It's just that they don't have the luxury of spilling them out to you because it'll tear you apart too.

We are in need of friends -- people who can be there for you. We've been hearing the quote "no man is an island" over and over again. But this time, it really makes sense, doesn't it?

The Deep

Oh, I have this friend
Who always has a smile
And I'm grateful for that
It sheds me a mile

In my daily life
Of personal travel
I ask myself how
Can someone, for you, be there?

This is in light of the one
Who has been all-smiles
How you keep simple
And joy in others' flight

Cos you are the deep
And you are the blue
Who sheds inside tears
And bleeds for others, true

What you do not know
Is that there's a call at night
That sings your lullaby's
Rewards a gift of white

Am I Made a Liar?

It's hard when you're the only witness
To a fault that somebody committed
Nobody else knows and yet they conclude
They've seen nothing yet they intrude

It's difficult when they talk and mock
Like you're being pushed against a rock
You don't know wether you should even fight
Or let them harm you though it ain't right

It turns out to be, I'm the villain
The tables turned, my hands bear stain
It can't be avoided, I'm the star
I ask then, "am I made a liar?"

But sometimes you just gotta talk
You're strong and you've feet to walk
It need not be a battle
Just to state your case is all that matters

Let's all accept that we do get angry
So it is, let's not prolong the story
Right the things that we could right
Forgive, forget, then you'll feel light

Noteys: hehe... Unfair kasi eh... At last, nasabi ko na din! Kasi, parang one-sided story talaga. You gotta defend yourself talaga at times when you need to. Simply clarify things. Tapos. Minsan we just get angry, we're just human. Pero, forgive pa rin, correct what can be corrected, and forget. :) Hehe...

But, I really had a question na "am I made a liar because they said so?" Parang it's like you'd just want to believe what they're saying against you even if it ain't true and lose na lang? It's not about losing anyway. It's about justice. :( parang wala nang justice so you just agree with the situation na lang ba? Pero, if you speak up, it's not always the best thing to do in every case. Depende pa rin yan. There are times that you just need to keep quiet. Mas okay pa rin if you're the type of person who can keep it all up inside. Hehe. Hmmmm, ma-try kaya next time? Pero regarding the things that you should say, never hesitate. As long as with respect and integrity. Hehe. I've learned a lot from the experience.

God bless! :)

Captured

Oh you have captured my heart
It is yours to make or break
But even if you break it
I would still make it up to you
Because of course this is true
That I love you
