A place for a Filipino English Major

It's a shame that Philippine Literature is hard to find here on the web. Well, there were lots of bloggers who helped me with my school works and it's my turn to help.

A Boy, A Girl and A World


---
This song is about a boy and a girl
Who wants to alter this rotting world
Thinking that they could change it with a simple twirl
But they can’t, the idea should vanish in a whirl

They passed mountains, seas and rivers
Even though the weather is too hot or makes them shiver
With their belief that they could revise this filthy world
They won’t stop even the elders already gave them words

They walked straight to the doom, to the cave
In a place where no one wanted but they crave
They thought that their steps could make them brave
But they’re wrong, a new kind of evil will come, a new wave

Too young to achieve something great
And too innocent to accept the failure they’ll create
Today they will sing and dance with grace
And tomorrow, they’ll grief and suffer because of a waste

Are they smart enough to make a change
Or a fool, they’ll send their selves in a cage
Whatever it is, at least they’re paving a way
But wherever it is, come what may!
