Break Up

I used to be with you
But now, I don't know you
You've change a lot
And I have nothing to do with that

Remember I love you
And cherish the day that I met you
For you've been a part of me

And my forever living fantasy

May you find your happiness
With the girl you love
And this damn emptiness
Will just fly away like a dove

To you i bid goodbye
And moving on is my next stuff
I hope you are now satisfied
With this heart breaking break-up.

Move On

i thought i love you to be my partner
but it is just untrue my wellwisher
you are just a friend
that i should cherish til the end

memories will stay here
and forever i will adhere
the friendship we have

and the shared unending love

moving on is now my stuff
from this forbidden feeling that we have
i know this is hard
but i will do it for you my comrade

let us be pals and enjoy
this relationship that we have boy
for i know this will last
and unending happiness will blast

Best Friends ng Tadhana (KEENA)

Mag-isa niyang binabagtas ang daan pauwi sa pinaka-unang pagkakataon, wala na nag dating halakhakan at kulitan na nagbibigay sigla sa kanya. Tanging ang nakakabinging katahimikan ang naghahari sa kaibuturan ng naluluksa niyang puso.
Nag-uunahan sa pagdaloy ang mga likidong kristal mula sa maaamo niyang mata at kasabay nito ang paggunita niya ng araw nang ito ay nagpaalam sa kanya.
Kring. . . . .kring. . . . .kring. . . . .
Uwian na at sabik na sabik siya sa pagkakaalam na may sasabihing importante sa kanya ang matalik niyang kaibigan. Agad niya itong hinanap sa hindi mahulugang karayom na mga estudyante na naglalabasan sa kanilang unibersidad. Palinga-linga pa siya nang marinig niyang may tumawag sa kanya, nakilala niya agad ito, ang matalik niyang kaibigan.

“Hoy! Keena! Ano na ‘yung sasabihin mo sa akin? Tungkol ba sa crush natin? Wala ba talaga siyang girlfriend?” putak niya agad dito. Ngunit napipi ito, ni isang salita ay walang sumungaw sa mala-rosas na labi nito. Agad siyang nabahal, hinatak niya ito mula sa nagkukumpulang estudyante papunta sa hindi mataong lugar. Doon niya ito kinausap ng masinsinan at inusig kung ano ang bumabagabag dito.
“Nagdadalang tao ako!”, ang umalingawngaw na sagot nito sa kanya. Hindi niya lubos maisip na ang matalik niyang kaibigan ay mayroon nang dinadala sa sinapupunan nito. Mayroon pa itong gatas sa labi at walang kamuwang-muwang sa buhay. Ano pa kaya kung ito na mismo ang may ibinubuhay?
“Pasensiya ka na at hindi ko natupad ang pangako natin na magtatapos muna bago ang ganitong kabaliwan. Tatapusin ko na lamang ang semestreng ito at hihinto na muna ako sa pag-aaral. Doon na lang muna ako sa probinsya.” , at saka siya nito linisan. Malayu-layo na rin ito nang kanyang lingunin, ngunit hindi niya magawang habulin dahil animo’y napako siya sa kanyang kinatatayuan.
Natapos ang unang semestre, hindi niya nakita ni anino ng matalik niyang kaibigan. Siguro ay talagang pumirmi na ito sa probinsya tulad ng huling pahayag nito sa kanya. Ngunit araw-araw pa rin siyang pumupunta sa aklatan upang tingnan kung nandoon ito, tulad na lamang ng ginagawa nila noong ito ay nag-aaral pa. Gustong-gusto niyang makita ito, mahawakan at mayakap. Nais niyang magkwento dito ng mga kaganapan sa kanyang buhay tulad ng dati nilang ginagawa, ngunit napailap ng tadhana. Talagang wala na ito.
Peep. . . . Peep. . . .Peep. . . .
Nanumbalik ang kanyang ulirat. Nasa gitna na pala siya ng kalsada at muntik ng mabundol ng nagmamadaling jeep. Dali-dali siyang naglakad papunta sa gilid ng kalsada at nang lingunin niya ang jeep ay meron siyang nakitang buntis na sakay nito, kaya pala ito ay nagmamadali. Lalakad na sana siya nang meron siyang naalala na pamilyar na mukha, ang babaeng buntis na sakay ng jeep,
“Keena?! . . . . .”

BORROWED LOVE AFFAIR


By KATE JUSTINE CABLAS


She's a girl full of emotions, emotions that tilt her into being a young writer, declaimer and dancer. Some people say she's weird but that weirdness of her makes her different from all other youngster until she started a University life. She treasures friends and memories. She is Keena.

He is a guy who dreams and aspires for all that is right for him. He fights, he speaks out and he learned how to love. Trust composes his whole being, that's how he value everyone's trust to him. He is Jeano.

Keena is a novice, adjusting what awaits her in a University life when she got to know Jeano. The guy who don't know to distinguish whether she's trying to throw a joke or not. His presence irritates her and her patience was going to run out. If she could do it, she wanted to keep him out of her sight but she absolutely can't because they join the same school organization. How unlucky she is.

Monday morning, she carry a lot of things for one of her subjects when Jeano extended a hand of help. At first she refuse but then with his persuasive acts she let him help her. Jeano was so different, he no longer tease her nor call her that particular word he used to. She just taught maybe he had eaten something that made him change, for good. When they reach the façade of the building where Keena's class is, Jeano smiled at her and told her that he needs to leave for he will be doing something important too.

Days passed by, no more teasing happened between them, It was replaced with laughter and stories untold before. They share experiences, have breaks together and he always make sure she come home safely.  Keena don’t know what was it all about but Jeano was falling for her without her noticing it, until the day that he already have the strength to tell her what he feel and ready to face all the consequences that may occur.

"I know it's hard for you to believe but I learned to love you with the span of time that we shared together. After hearing the story that you have with your past relationship, I am eager to win your heart and mend those broken pieces Keena."

Tears run down her pallid face, she was terrified and don’t know whether to believe him or not. She knew that he has a girlfriend but Jeano told her that they already broke up before they became friends. Keena can't figure out a thing or two.

Time passed by and she just found out she's loving Jeano. They have the best timeline of happiness and contentment of being together, they laugh and share thoughts. Believing with the promise of each other, to love and not to cut the threads.

Who could have ever thought that the best love story in the University will vanished and turn into hatred, bitterness, tears and the desire to revenge? Keena was dumb. She's lost in nowhere and always found with liquid crystals in her eyes full of sadness, she even not to speak a word. Reasons why? She found out that Jeano was committed with another girl, the girl that he used to loved but then broke up with her when he found Keena.

The sun sets on the west, Keena sitting on a bench together with a friend was talking while enjoying the beauty of the reddish skies and the dubbing of the cool breeze on their rosy cheeks.

"I am pretty sure he's happy. They are happy. I just don’t know why he needs to lie and broke others heart. Well, maybe this is the game of life, the game of being in love. You have to get hurt, shred tears and get dumb before you will see another beauty of life. Another perspective," Keena while staring on the clear skies.

"Keena, I know moving on is hard to do but you have to. Unless you really want to ruin your lie. Cheer up! Us, your friends are here for you. There are so many love affairs to pass by, we don’t know when but I'm sure you will find the real him."

Keena smiled and uttered. . .
"Yes, you're right and maybe what Jeano and I have is just a borrowed love affair."
