Best Valentines Ever

Pinagtripan ako ng mga klasmeyts ko noong Lunes, araw bago mag Valentines Day. Sinapak ako sa mukha ng ilang beses. Medyo masakit din. Hehehe. May mga pasa sa'king mukha. Hihihi. Gusto ko sanang gumanti pero nasa loob kasi ng skul eh. May araw din sila sa akin. Anyways, while resting on my bed this week, since I didn't feel like going out because of the minor physical injuries that were drawn all over my face, I have decided to make a poem.

Pag sinabi ko ba sayong gusto kita, maniniwala ka?

Ano bang magiging reaksyon mo? Tutunga lang ba o speechless?

Tatakbo ka ba, kakabahan, I'm sure mag-fre-freak-out ka

Pero alam ko ang isasagot mo -- Ewan ko sayo, ang panget mo!

Note: Poem ba 'to? resulta lang siguro 'to ng mga pasa ko sa mukha. It was the best Valentines ever.

Lyrics and Metaphors

If I still think of her today

Why didn't I tell her long ago?

I could have saved all wondering

For I'd have peace if I did know.

If I had learned of metaphors

Before I wondered 'bout the stars

Would I have written verses then

And worshiped Venus instead of Mars?

If I had found my tongue could rhyme

Would I have shown a face sans mask,

A heart unsure? But woe is me--

I'll never know, I didn't ask.

This is a magnificent poem written by a Filipino Artist H.O. Santos. I think this is wonderful, and at the same time sad. Is this for real? Was he really regretting that he wasn't able to say the right words for the woman he loves? I think he is romantic, and the woman must have been so lucky if ever she knew about this.

Why did he not tell her? I can't sleep thinking of what could have been the probable reasons on why he became a martyr of love.
