Silence
    envelops me in this midst
    of noise
        tinged with tears
        of laughter
    as e.e. cummings knocks
    into my consciousness --
    i remember his praises
    heaped upon the darkness
    of the soul.
My eyelids droop
    as this silence
    wraps me around
        its arms of gentle breezes
        from Sagada's mountains
        ...i've never been to Sagada
        but it's in my mind
        from the stories
        countless stories
        of peace and calm
We all seek peace
We all seek calm
    but peace is within us
         calm is within us
    serenity, with its strange quality of silence,
    is within us
    but we choose not to see it
        we choose not to have it.
    we are blinded
    by this noise that surrounds us.

I Love You ..Goodbye..
Wish I could be the one
The one who could give you love
The kind of love you really need
Wish I could say to youThat I'll always stay with you
But baby that's not me
You need someoneWilling to give their heart and soul to you
Promise you forever
Baby that's something I can't do
Oh I could say that I'll be all you need
But that would be a lie
I know I'd only hurt you
I know I'd only make you cry
I'm not the one you're needing
I love you, goodbye
I hope somedayYou can find someway to understand
I'm only doing this for you
I don't really wanna go
But deep in my heart I know
That is the kindest thing to do
You'll find someone
Will be the oneThat I could never be
Who'll give you something better
Than the love you'll find with me
Oh I could say that I'll be all you need
But that would be a crime
I know I'd only hurt you
I know I'd only make you cry
I'm not the one you're needing
I love you, goodbye
Leaving someone
When you love someone
Is the hardest thing to do
When you love someone as much as I love you
Oh I don't wanna leave you
Baby it tears me up inside
But I'll never be the one you're needing
I love you, goodbye
Baby it's never gonna work out
I love you, goodbye
