Sa murang edad ay sinusubok na nang husto ng panahon Kaya't kay aga ring nagpupumilit na pauli-ulit na umahon Kung sana'y mga problema ay katulad lang ng ambon Pagkatapos umulan ay parang walang pinagdaanan na malaking hamon Ngunit iyong tingnan ang sarili sa salamin Hanggang saan ka dinala ng iyong mga suliranin? Kahit simpleng buwan ay kaya kang pangitiin At ang amoy ng dagat ay alam na alam kung paano ka pakalmahin Kagustuhang sumuko ay mas nais mo pa bang pairalin?

Even though I hadn’t met Love yet, if Love had wandered into my home room I would have recognized him at first glance – Love wore a hemp necklace. I would have recognized her at first glance – Love wore a tight French braid. Love played acoustic guitar, and knew all my favorite Beatles’ songs. Love wasn’t afraid to ride the bus with me. And I knew I just must be searching the wrong classroom, just must be checking the wrong hallway. She was there, I was sure of it. If only I could find him. But when Love finally showed up – she had a bull cut! He wore the same clothes everyday for a week. Love hated the bus. Love didn’t know anything about the Beatles. Instead, every time I tried to kiss Love, our teeth got in the way!!! Love became the reason I lied to my parents. I’m going to Ben’s house. Love had terrible rhythm on the dance floor but made sure we never miss a slow song. Love wai...
