In the Eye of the Man You Never Liked

You're the woman
   who never liked a man,
   avoided them as if
   they're a sin—mistake
   you should not let in,
   although, you wanted
   to be loved and cared,
   for you, you can do it
   on your own—be not
   dependent to them.
You're the woman
   that I liked and loved,
   i remembered saying
   you these before:
   "Ikaw ang bituon sa akong
   mabugnaw nga kagabhion."
   corny may it seem to you,
   that was all true—i love you,
   gihigugma tika pag-ayo.
You're the woman
   who's very true to herself,
   you'd say something which
   truly spoke from your heart,
   never sugarcoated it to make
   you beautiful in society's eye,
   you made me fall hard into
   your deepest realm—your soul.
How long must I write love letters for you?
How long must I wait so that I could have you?
