Sadya

Ano ba ang silbi ko?
Ni hindi ko maaatim na isipin
Na sa bawat taong nakasama
Nakausap, nakatawanan
ay ginamit ako
sa pansarili
Di ko matanggap
Di ko matiis
Ni hindi ko masabi ang nararamdaman
Kung gaano kapait
Kasakit
Kahapdi
Ang malaman
Na ang tinuring mong sadya
ang maglulugmok
sa akin tuwina.

Nothing At All

I may be a point
A tiny dot on a map
Which can merely be seen from the sky

I may be a dust
A particle floating in mid-air
Which can merely be touched by our hand

I may be no one
A person who relies on many things
Who seems to be there when you need

I may be nothing
A creature of disguise
Who seems to fall too hollow on a trap

I may be
A space
a breeze or a chill
a lone dark of suppress
So tiny in vast,
nevertheless
Nothing.
