Kahit na gising

Ikaw ang panaginip

Sintang ‘di akin

Never have I ever...

Daniel Joshua T. Taligatos @Dan_joshh

My wrists are starting to get tired of painting countless blue strokes in the middle of this infinite rain. I’d tried changing the orbit of my emotion to vanish that night away. I tried to forget you but failed; how can I forget my nurturing light?

Stuck in this tale book of hope, I chose to stop and watch you walk away. Slowly fading behind, singing our promises in a slow ballad phase, I whispered, “I’ll be your silent protector, a night light in gloom.”

That’s the thing about pain, isn’t it? Feeling it doesn’t make it stop; it just shows you that you still care.

But what if time ends and die?

Will I tell you how much I love you or lie?
