self-portrait
sino ka nga ba?
ikaw ba ay isa lamang sa milyong
hibla ng aking imahinasyon?
ikaw ba ang siyang
himig sa aking mga titik at letra
na hindi ko maipag-isa?
sadya ka bang mailap
tulad ng katinuang
matagal ko nang hinahanap?
sadya ka bang mapaglaro?
sadya ka bang mangungulit
sa diwa kong puyat?
mapusok ka bang talaga
na kahit pilitin kong limutin
ay parang batong babagsak
kahit ihagis pataas?
bakit ba hindi ka lumubay?
bakit sadya kang nandyan - tumititig?
mag-ingat ka.
baka kita'y biglang hablutin!

I am leaving today (don't know where I'm going).
Hold my head in disgrace (I can't escape the truth).
I know the price that I've paid.
I admit that it's too late to admit that I'm afraid.
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes my soul mate.
The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late.
Old doors are closed but I'm always open,
To relive time in my mind.
Oh Bryan.
I am leaving today (don't know where I'm going).
I've got lines on my face (they tell the story of my pain).
I accept it's my fate.
I admit it took too long to admit that I was wrong.
Tomorrow comes. Sorrow becomes my soul mate.
The damage is done. The prodigal son is too late.
Old doors are closed but I'm always open,
To relive time in my mind.
Oh Bryan.
Once I was a lover sleeping with another.
Now I'm just known as a cheat.
And I wish I have a mirror; look a little clearer.
Seen into the eyes of the weak.
