the devil wants you to doubt your ability
          the devil wants you to play it safe
          the devil wants you to be jealous
          the devil wants you to be confused
          the devil wants you to be distracted
          the devil wants you to be afraid

          then, what will you do?

in the 80's
          where the mornings are lively [dreadful]
          and the afternoons are lazy [just go by]
          and the nights could be warm but colorful [bleak]
          or cold but loving [biting]
          where our life is young and simple [worn and gone]
          there we weave dreams [try 'til we die]
          while we let our little [dark] hearts scream
          of wonderful feelings [aching feelings]
          we met [say goodbye]
          and remain in memory [and be forgotten]
          with the happiness we share [with what we wish we never had]

i was
          searching maturity from the young ones
          and youthfulness from grown ups
          i am young when i should be old
          old when i should be young
          late when i should be arriving
          waiting when i should be leaving
          settling when i should be searching
          trying when i should be stopping
          i look for love where there's no love
          and give love to those who want it not
          
          sometimes,
          you just can't fit your fitting

yo! 
          
          maglilipat-bahay ang ibang mga libro ng tula ko rito papunta sa isa kong wattpad account (na ewan kung bakit ina-announce ko pa eh matagal naman nang naka-unpublish. marahil ay dahil hindi ko pa binubura ang mga pabalat at unang pahina ng iba in hope na ma-repub ko pero nag-retire na talaga sa wattpad si simplengbebeng noon pang 2017. nagsusulat na lang talaga siya rito bilang hobby or upang hindi makalimot sa pagsusulat).
          
          may isa na lang akong gustong gawin dito. ay, dalawa pala. ang ituloy at tapusin ang kuwento ng tropa pero umaapila si jiyo so yeah, ire-revise at tatapusin ko rin ang kuwento nila ni cai (ico-copy-paste ko na lang ang orihinal para hindi ko na kailangang ituloy ang pinakumplikado nilang kuwento. hays). sumisingit si dani. tapusin ko rin daw 'yong kanya haha. ire-repub ko rin pala 'yong "creepy pansit" (formerly "rayne, rattle and roll". di ko pa lang ma-edit ang final story. hays)
          
          baka i-publish ko rin pala rito 'yong mga nobelang isinulat ko no'ng kolehiyo since ico-copy paste lang din naman (kapag sinipag ang tamad at may leftover pa siyang oras. di naman aalis ang wattpad haha). 
          
          ah, ano pa ba? ayun. ilista ko dito ang mawawala in case may nakapagbasa at masalubong n'yo sa ibang lugar:
          
          mga tula:
          
          tulat
          tulatbp
          tintae
          tintao
          siya
          sulat
          popcorn soda break
          ang mundo ay isang malaking notepad
          tinta sa kuwaderno ng isang kolehiyala (tsknik)
          tah, langoy
          komposisyon ng yamog
          sulatulat
          pen and pages
          missing
          her & him
          ennui switch
          wells of silence
          m u
          fractals
          is series (tentative kasi english at paboritong libro 'to ni seas haha)
          little series (tentative. basta lang)
          
          essays, shorts, one-shots:
          
          mga kuwentong walang gustong makadinig
          ansabeh
          ano ang naiisip mo?
          space besides
          story scribbles
          pagbabalik
          hotel boarder
          her joyful sorrowful cliche
          long engagement
          little copper

a bad story that becomes a good book is worth celebrating

what do you want?
          what can you do?
          what will you do?
          
          what will it take?
          how much are you willing to risk?
          what's stopping you?
          
          what's important?
          what have you learned?
          isn't the joy and the fruit enough
          to fight for what you love?
          
          who loses what?
          what loses who?
          i believe faith is big enough
          to bring back the two of you.
          
          be.
