"Balikan"



Balikan Ito yong muli Kong mararanasan
Bumalik ako sa dati nating tagpuan
Anu ulit itong nararamdaman?
Na may halong lungkot at kaba
At hindi maipaliwanag na saya
Kadarating ko lang... 
Agad mong pinagtatabuyan
Buti pa ang iyong kaibigan 
Pinagsabihan Na ako'y hayaan
At ika'y nanibaguhan Sa aking kinahihinatnan
Ang dating ako ay sadyang mong kinalimutan
Labis akong nasaktan 
Na habang ika'y aking pinagmamasdan
Yong ikaw nawala nasayo Ang aking kagustuhan
Sa iyong aking una kong nasilayan Ang iyong katangian
Nalapitan kita Sa pamamagitan ng inuman
Tila bang sayo'y kawalan
Bakit ba kita gustong balikan?
Ei alam ko naman nawala Na akong babalikan
Ang ating pinagsamahan,
Tilang hindi nag iba Ang dati nating harutan
At hindi Ito napalitan,
Bakit hindi ko mapigilang ayaw na rin kitang balikan
Ang nadarama sayo'y nagmarka
Na Kailan man hindi ito matatansya
Kahit alam ko nasa malayo ka 
Alam ko parin Na may distansya,
Pinakiramdaman ko na ako'y mahal mo pa ba?
Parang tingin ko hindi talaga ako ang mahalaga!
Simula Ngayon ako'y magtatanda na
Mula saaking nadaramaIka'y palalayain at papabayaan na talaga 
Kalimutan na,
Kalimutan na Ang lahat,
Kalimutan Na Ko na ang nakilala kita
Mag simula tayo ulit Sa umpisa
Na pagkakaibigan pero hindi na susubukan Na ikay balikan
Dahil ayaw ko ulit Ito naranasan
Tapos Na Ang nakaraan move na Ako para sayo
Dahil hindi naman Ako para sayo at malabo Na rin maging tayo.....
