I'll Be Here to Stay

I'm not really good at Writing Poems but I wrote this after the Lao NDP night. I was pretty touched by the song be with us forever. I guess, I have learned to live by the moment. :)

When I close my eyes
I see those wonderful memories
When I close my eyes
There's this feeling growing in me

It was not all the time happy
It was not all the time full
But there was true friendship
That's always ready to reach for

When we part each other don't think I'll be too far,
You can reach me with your hand,
You can let me feel your touch,
Our shared moments together will keep us one forever
I'll be here to stay, Let me stay inside your heart.

It's easy to say I'll be fine when each of us depart,
But longiness for each other is a lifetime to take part,
Just promise me my friend Let me stay in your heart,
 I'll be here to stay. Forever in your heart.

Walang Iwanan

I. Akala ko isang panaginip lang,

Ang makilala ang isang tulad mo,

Sa pitong libo isang daan at pitong pulo,

Tayo tinadhana upang magkatagpo.

II. May mga talang gustong abutin,

Para sa bansang tunay na ginigiliw,

Ngunit paano ba ito mararating,

Kung ikaw lang ang nagsisilbing.

Chorus:

Daan tayo sa pagbabago,

Dalawamput walong kabataan

Ay sisimulan ito,

Lahat magagawa kung sama-sama.

III. Ibat-ibang ang kinalakhan,

Ngunit gustong makamit ay iisa lamang.

Ang makitang nagniningning ang tatlong bituin,

At masilayan ang liwanag sa kalawakan.

Chorus

Coda: Walang Iwanan.. Walang Iwanan

Bridge:

Minsan may mga di pagkakaunawaan,

Ngunit laging isipin Diyos ang siyang kailangan,

Sabay-sabay, Magka-akbay, Kailan man walang iwanan!

Sapagkat...

Chorus – Coda

Walang Iwanan... Walang Iwanan...

About the song:

I wrote this after our SSEAYP Pre-departure Training. I was greatly inspired by the experience I had and pretty much excited for the next part of our journey as PYs. 

Until now, I couldn't finish or finalize this song. I just love doing stuffs like this even though I'm not really musically inclined. Knowledge about playing instruments or a talent in singing is not in my veins. Who wants to sing and play this song for me so we can record it?

Stereotype

I am grateful indeed to meet a person like you,

Seems in everything I do my thoughts keeps lingering,

How mysterious the way you act and how deep is your ocean,

I wander if I could swim, what If I drown?

You smile so unpredictably and sits so quietly,

I felt a bit impatient in decoding what you meant,

You must have captured my heart when I listened,

For I just don't hear it - I read between the lines.

My Dear Helium Balloon

I bought myself a helium balloon,

I thought it might cheer me up,

Can lighten the weight of my back all day,

Help me let go of what's behind of me.

UNSTOPPABLE

I. There are times in My Life

I feel burdened Lord

And I Said I give Up I won’t take Your road

Too much pain I can’t bear please Enlighten me My God
