Byahe

Byahe
By: emjozar

Nilimot na ba ng panahon,

Ang mga byahe ng ating kahapon?

Tinalikuran na ba ang gunita,

At ang mga alaala ng ating pagsinta?

Lumilipas ang panahon,
Nauupos ang nag-iisang pagkakataon,
Na sa mundo’y mabuhay,
At kasama mong maglakbay.

Di mo na ba babalikan?
Yung magkatabi natin na upuan,
Sa bus na ating sinakyan,
Pauwi sa ating kanya kanyang tahanan.

Ang tagal din ng byahe natin,
Pero saglit na lamang ngayon kung iisipin,
Dami nating kwento,
Di nauubos sa byaheng magkasama tayo.

Di mo na ba naaalala,
Yung mukha natin non sa twina?
Yung sayang umuukit sa mata,
Di na ba natin maibabalik pa?

Ako na lang ba?
Bababa ka na?
Hindi ba pwedeng wag muna?
Wag ka munang pumara.

Naaalala Mo Pa Ba?

Naaalala Mo Pa Ba?
By: emjozar

Naalala mo pa ba kung paano tayo nag-umpisa?
Yung araw na una tayong nagkita?
Yung mahabang mensahe ko na iyo lang dinedma?
At nung yung pangungulit ko ay nagkaron na ng resulta.

Tanda mo pa ba yung night shift ako tapos morning shift ka?
Magkaiba oras natin pero parang iisa.
Yung araw na magugulat ka, di ka pala naglalakad mag-isa?
Yung araw na alam mong nandyan lang ako kahit di mo ko nakikita.

Sinasabi ko sayo nandito ako sa likod mo.
Lumilingon ka pero wala ang anino ko.
Mapapangiti ka na lang kasi alam mong malapit lang ako sayo.
Tapos biglang makikita mo na lang ako sa harap mo.

Yung mga kwentuhan natin sa tabi ng pool sa condo niyo.
Yung mga tawanan natin don tuwing ako'y nagbibiro.
Yung mga pangarap na sabay natin binuo.
At yung walang hanggang pag-asa na sa buhay na to, di tayo mabibigo.

Naririnig mo pa din ba sa isip mo yung kantahan nating dalawa?
Yung sumubok tayo magrecord pero di tayo makaisa?
Bigla na lang tayong tumatawa unang kaskas pa lang sa gitara.
Yung panahon, na walang araw ang lumipas na di tayo masaya.

Tanda mo pa ba yung araw na sinabi kong Mahal Kita?
Na sa relasyon natin posibleng di tayo laging masaya.
Na minsan dadaan tayo sa mga pagsubok na magkasama.
Pero sabi natin kapit lang tayo diba?

Pwede bang di na lang yon maging gunita?
Bumalik na lang tayo ulit sa umpisa?
Mahal Mo pa din naman ako diba?
Gusto ko pang gumawa ng masasayang alaala kasama ka.

Sa isip mo alam ko, mahaba na to masayado. Pero gusto kong malaman mo na nandito pa din ako. 
Sa ilalim ng malaking puno sa isang mataas na lugar kung saan kita mo ang kalawakan. Naghihintay sayo.
Kung saan kita mo ang liwanag ng buong bayan, ng bituin at buwan.
Nandito pa din ako, umaasa na sa bandang huli. Dito pa din tayo magtatagpo.

Our Little One

Our Little One

By: emjozar

Our Little One has come,

Caught me halfway through my journey of becoming a grown man.

Honestly, I was not that ready, just like almost everyone,

But I have to be steady, 'cause later on, we’re gonna have so much fun.

I could never have imagined that parenthood would come so soon,

It feels so new, as if I were walking on the moon.

It all started late in the afternoon,

On the 4th of December, waiting for our baby to bloom.

I never expected you to be this cute,

You look exactly like me from head to foot.

You got most of my genes from the root,

Now we’ll love and protect you, that’s our absolute.

You showered us with endless cries,

But we'll hold you close until you close your eyes.

Your Mom and I will sing you unlimited lullabies,

Until we see your beautiful smiles.

Being new parents seems to be pretty hard,

We promise you we'll never get tired.

Our love's a flame and it will forever be unmarred,

Our family's unbreakable because we're divinely wired.

Brighter Sun

Brighter Sun

Today's the last day of the year,

The start of the new chapter is near,

The sky above feels it and went crystal clear,

Loudest sounds of the new beginning, we are about to hear.

People are celebrating,

Happy thoughts they've been talking,

Old good memories of the year, they're commemorating,

And some went to a clear space for sight seeing.

Fireworks began to pop,

Families have gone on sharing sake's cup,

Laughters are heard everywhere and there's nothing lack,

Everyone got each other's back.

There's a brighter sun ahead of us,

Hope is something we got to grasp,

God has something great in store for all of us,

We just have to keep moving forward and keep the trust.

How I wish I can stop the time

How I wish I can stop the time
By: emjozar

How I wish I can stop the time, 
In such way, I will be more than fine.
Imagine I can go back to my "prime", 
And redo the things happily from the beginning of the line. 

I don't want to grow old anymore, 
I just want things to stay the same just like before. 
Seriously, I want to wish this to a falling meteor, 
And take my chances to live in the wonderful moments I want to savour. 

Everything grows old with me, 
The world, the stuff, my friends, relatives, and my whole family. 
How I wish we can be time-free, 
So we can stay from where we want to be. 

How I wish I can stop the time, 
Well, dreaming was never a crime. 
This is a desire of this heart of mine.
But time waits for no one and that fact cannot be declined.

Somewhere We Know And Somewhere We Don't Know

Somewhere We Know And Somewhere We Don't Know

By: emjozar

Year goes by in a blink, 

Changes poured like a drink, 

There's a whole lot of things you can't think, 

Humanity seems to be standing on a cliff's brink.

Our hearts doesn't seem to know where it is.

Our minds keep asking what are these?

We're puzzled like there's a missing piece.

Will this world still be at peace?

War is everywhere,

Even on those little things that doesn't seem to matter.

If there's a chance, it'll be nice to go somewhere,

We are kind of lost, I swear!

We are in the middle of somewhere we know and somewhere we don't know.

We are waiting for the sun to rise and glow.

Today is the very time of the year to let things be and let it go.

We got nothing to do but to pray and hope for a better tomorrow.

I'm Out of My League

I'm Out of My League
By: emjozar

I'm lost in the wild,

I don't know where to hide,

I feel like I'm losing my mind,

I'm searching for the light that I cannot find.

I'm swimming in the sea,

Where sharks are staring at me,

I just want to be free,

But the waves are holding me.

I'm out of my league, 

I got no lead,

I don't even know what I need,

I feel like a missing kid.

I'm stuck in the middle of my track,

I'm stepping onto these cracks,

I hope I can make it back,

The smile in my heart that I lack.
