how

can you

move on

if your runs

can no longer

the recurring depression…

“In real life things don’t go so smoothly. At certain points in our lives, when we really need a clear-cut solution, the person who knocks at our door is, more likely than not, a messenger bearing bad news.” Haruki Murakami

fighting my own demons
I’m running through hell
there are voices I hear
coming from an unseen shell
for how long is the struggle
only time can really tell
is this the price I’ve to pay
for pretending all is well

something isn’t right
truth won’t show its face
the fire that burns within
is missing without a trace
it feels like I’m in the midst
of an unwinnable race
no matter how hard I try
it seems I’m falling from grace

“Nobody's going to win all the time. On the highway of life you can't always be in the fast lane.”
Haruki Murakami

sound the alarm
if despair still sets in
even if you’re out there
running high on Endorphins
something is disrupted
by a struggle from within
you’re now falling into a trap
fighting a battle you can’t win

you’ve covered a lot of miles
but distance isn’t the answer
the relief is momentary
you can’t go on any further
inconsistency builds up
just like a stormy weather
there are just some things
that won’t really blend together

Mabuti pa minsan ang walang nakikita o naririnig
Magtago man ang katotohanan wala namang iniisip
Damdamin kailangan ay maging isang manhid
Hayaan na lang ang panahon ang maging tagasagip

Mahirap nang saklawan ang hindi natin kontrolado
Kapag ating pinilit magmumukha lang tayong gago
Mahirap maghinala sa mga hindi naman sigurado
Lalong gumugulo masalimuot na nating mundo

Ginagatungan ng teknolohiya ang nagbabagang apoy
Sa bawat mga sulyap may itinatagong pananaghoy
Sa kahihintay ng mga sagot ang diwa ay lumalaboy
Tunay na mga pangyayari kadalasan ay itinataboy

Kahit anong pagharang wala na tayong magagawa
Nasa paligid lang ang mga pwedeng magtangka
Kaya kapag ang bakod ay sadyang naging mahina
Sa kaunting sandal ninuman ay maaring magiba

Ibuhos na lahat ang pagmamahal at tiwala
Anuman ang maging bunga ginawa natin ang tama
Kung nagkamali man at mukhang walang mapapala
Harapin ang pangyayari Diyos na ang siyang bahala

“The first time I stepped on an NBA court I became a businessman.” Lebron James

It is now a done deal, a seismic one to be exact
A quick business decision no time for a dramatic act
Bron James in purple and gold might be a surprising fact
But if you’re a true Laker fan you should know how to react…
