The first day i set foot on mt. pulag
was the day i stopped talking to you...
Sent my message in a bottle
To tell you "be well forever"...
Silence deafens those that listen
Over mountains and over seas...
Are you, in truth, happily shining down upon me?
Despite the days I have taken away from you...
It has wings and no eyes to see
yet it flies blindly like it has no fear itself...
I took the ever familiar road
with my head held up high...
People let go of a hot potato
not because they don't want it...
Golden rays of light glimmer
on this newfound city...
Indifferent and unmoved
with no evidence of joy or grief...
Goodbye to the cheerful days of flavorful...
when two lonely hearts find comfort in each other...
Look for me where true beauty lies.
I'll be there, just open your eyes...
