Miss Na Kita

 

When I first wrote the lyrics to this song, it was a case of me missing Ashley. Ashley couldn't understand how to deal with my CPTSD nor have the ability to understand it in full. But it wasn't just her I was missing, it was more me missing us.

Unfortunately, the darkness in me was overwhelming me at night time due to a very traumatic situation I went through nearly my age. More on that in another post later down the line.

I looked deep down inside of myself and the memories I had and remembered the first time we kissed and how much I wanted to keep going!

Having your first kiss with your love one should always be special and I wanted to capture that by taking a picture of us in front of a mirror. Regret to say, the picture is blurry so it isn't the best one to see!

We chose to keep the picture between us and not show our family and friends it! Either way... I miss her. Not been by her... Holding her hand, kissing, hugging... All those little things were missing. Truth is, it will all be worth it knowing that we will see each other again soon!

But no matter how far away I am from her, I always look at my phone and see her face our picture together with me holding her, kissing her forehead. And it's memories like that, that makes you realize that the whole journey is worthwhile.

Don't give up on each other, especially if you know your other half is worth it! There will always be struggles because that's now relationships work! It's to build you up and take on the next challenge! But always remember, support each other and take time for you. If you feel overwhelmed, don't feel bad but try to say it in a gentle way so it doesn't feel bad. As I said, no relationship is easy but working together, you can get through it all.

Yakap Tayo, Mahal Ko

Hey world, I thought I would share some words regarding Yakap tayo, mahal ko! Making a song regarding my love for Ashley was something I been wanting to do for a long time. Adjustment were made during the process of making the lyrics and while it has been altered, I'm feeling more happier about it.

Originally, the song was going to be called Under this sky, but changed to Yakap tayo, mahal ko! As you can see, I used tagalog to express my love to her! As a surprise to her, I revealed the song to her which made her cry happy tears! The image reflects on our first time seeing each other in person at the airport! While I didn't cry like a baby, deep down when I was leaving, I wanted to.

Yakap tayo, mahal ko" means "let's hug, my love," and it's something very special. In my view, giving hugs is the most special thing you can ever have, and feeling the embrace of someone you love is the best feeling in the world. To this day, I still cherish the memory of our first hug and how much I wanted to lift her off her feet. Knowing I hugged her is one of the most precious moments we will ever have.

Hopefully, you too can feel the warmth and emotional depth that was put into this beautiful song created! Everyone needs a hug and I hope you can do so soon! Speak soon world!
