Ngiti, kasama ng hangin

Tinitigan ka, nangausap ang puso

pero hindi nakiusap

nakakatawang diyalugo paminsan

heto nanaman tayo

napuna, napansin, binansagan

tumingin papalayo

nagpatuloy sa buhay

dahil bakit pa

para saan

lahat naman ay lumilipas

ang tao ay paparoon at paparito

hindi ko matandaan kung kailan nagsimlua

mawalan ng lakas ng loob

ipininta ang bukas

at makalawa

dahil alam kong pagdating ng araw

ay wala ka

kaya salamat, sa hindi mo pag puna

sa hindi mo pagtanong

sa munting segundo, tumingin

i’ve been bleeding for a while

been trying to walk away for so many times

this time

i told you i should have

i would

there’s less tears in my days

of course you don’t know

you wanted me around, to be there for you

for as long as you needed me

for as long as you had something to say

it was years of pain

and finally i had the courage

to walk away

there’s less tears in my eyes now

how would you know

we were never on the same page

i made a big fool of myself

i know i’ll see better days

i’ll have my turn again

i’ve done it before

In so many ways

Like all things that used to matter

Everything, can go fleeting

Even people, the places..

Because why else

And what for

If not in this life
