the one with a high school poem

I was having an excavation through the pile of papers at home when I saw this love letter. Good thing, especially now that I don’t have a new book to read. I know it’s kinda unethical to read other peeps’ letter, but curiosity always eats me up. It was more entertaining that I thought, it turned out to be my cousin’s friend’s love note (not just a simple epistle but in a poem format) for this certain Rainier, a boy from another section of their school. Here’s how the letter goes…

Pagsintang Pururot
<
Kumusta, lalaking nasa 5B
Ang kulay niya’y maputi
At cute din ngumiti
At higit sa lahat pogi

Ikaw ba’y napa-flatter?
Well, beauty is in the eye of the beholder
Pero sa’kin, beauty is within
Pero sa totoo lang cute ka pa rin sa ‘kin

Hindi naman siguro masama
Kung ginawan kita ng tula
Isipin mo na lang na may girl na sa’yoy nag-aadmire
Kaya naman sya sa’yoy na-iinspire

Siguro ay may GF ka na
Dahil halata naman sa iyong mukha
Kaya wag kang mag-alala
Hindi kita aagawin sa kanya

Alam kong mahilig ka sa magaganda
Kaya wala akong maiharap na mukha
Kaya sa pamamagitan nitong tula
Nailabas kong ako’y may pagsintang pururot pala

Ngunit ito’y simpleng paghanga lang
At ito’y hanggang doon lamang
At ‘di na aabot pa sa love
Dahil hindi pa panahon para ako’y ma-in love

Salamat dahil iyong binasa
Kahit ako’y ‘di mo kilala
Kahit na sa utak ay may dating
At mukhang ako’y napa-praning

Kung sa iyong palagay ang gawa ko’y pang-trash can
At pang-siga sa iyong bakuran
Ikaw na lamang ang bahalang mag-desisyon
Kung ito ba’y itatago o tuluyan mo nang itatapon

Mga high schoolers talaga. Pero honestly I miss being one hehehe, especially those times when your being soooo stupid and immature. hayyy
