little fire burnt

keep me honest, keep me kind

Keep me as your finish line.

Here I am.

Here, still burns for you.

Take it. Take it.

I'll beg and I'll beg.

You have your life figured out while this is me after work.

Paano ko ba sasabihin na naiingit ako sa mga tao na hindi naman dapat kainggitan?

'No connections. No privilege. From scratch. Proud to be anak ng manikurista at karpintero.'

Most people don't really realize that having both of your parents or even just one is already a huge privilege and advantage. But it's a norm so I get why a lot of people don't understand or won't even think about it in the first place. Plus, of course most people have their own issues with their parents. Some of them probably wishes their parents to be gone. But they don't understand. Hindi katulad ko.

I would spend my whole life trying to explain or trying to make someone understand. But I know I'll just waste any effort I'll try to exert.
