A collaboration with Pax. There's a music video to let you hear the tune. =)
HOW FAR WOULD I GO TO LOVE YOU
Words by: Willyam Pax Music by: Daisie Partido Vergara
How far would I go to love you? How many times would I dive in River Bayou. Loving you this way seems isn't enough I longed for you to give me a chance, ohh...
Would my love be enough for you? Or you'll disregard me for what I have at hand? Would you leave me in shades of black or blue. My love is bare because I care, my love
Refrain: Would you give me a little bit of love in advance? Would you give me a chance to see you stay. So much as I breathe your essence like air I was so tired even though I tried my very best Sometimes I feel like giving-up, But resigning wouldn't do anything to stop This heart that beats only for you somehow ask How far would I go to love you?
I know I don't have everything For I survive with just some little things, Enough for me to live this kind of life And even my choices are full of strife
Refrain: Would you give me a little bit of love in advance? Would you give me a chance to see you stay. So much as I breathe your essence like air I was so tired even though I tried my very best Sometimes I feel like giving-up, But resigning wouldn't do anything to stop This heart that beats only for you somehow ask How far would I go to love you?
Recently, I can't write more poems because of writer's block. But a poem of a friend helped me overcome it and became my muse to compose a song out of it with some revisions on the lines.
Again, I'm not an expert keyboard player but I hope I made justice in turning the poem into a lyrical piece.
Credits to Pax's poem. I made some changes in some lines of the original piece to fit with the musical lines.

"my love is bare because i care"
so simple yet so profound in what is not there....all the materialistic things...just the bare bones of love....for many that is not enough...and that is so sad because that is what will last when all else is gone---
really good collaboration, sounds like only one poet wrote this...you guys blend so well.

Thank you so much for the compliment.

There isn't anything that two people are able to do at all to reinforce the mood of love in each other. They just come in proximity with each other, and the magic either happens or it doesn’t. Cupid’s arrow either hits or misses his two intended targets. Since this song has rhythm, it’s a song. You should show where the accents, and non-accents are placed on each line. This song is a plea to Cupid for the magic to happen both ways. I would write a love song somewhat like this:
I am
I’m in the mood of love
simply because I am,
and I’m more so
when I’m near you.
Do you feel
the same way?

I hope you listened to my song because I'm the one performing it. LOL. If that's a song that you made here, I can say, I won't be contented with that very short song. Hehe
Thanks for the read and for the thoughts you have shared here, Ae. =)

When we sing about the mood of love there's no end. Other verses would express what happens during different proximities. Songs need not rhyme, and rhythm may be added after the song is written regardless of where the actual words are accented. What I wrote wasn’t a song-poem, but rather just a song in search of an added rhythm. Love isn't given or taken no more than hate or any other mood is given or taken; a mood just takes place deep inside of each of us without us asking, or it doesn’t. No one orders love around. Love is free to do as she pleases, and she does.

I think I have to learn more about it from a psychologist's POV. You can send me more info via PM if you want to give me free lecture about it. I'm ashamed to ask questions here. LOL

Have you ever wondered why computers don't have moods? Moods is what makes us human, makes us conscious. Our moods are everything that we really are. Moods are us! You don't need a PHD in Psychology to understand the importanced of moods. You only need to be aware of yourself from moment to moment.
The refrain is awesome, dhaye. it easily registers in the mind of the listeners. you got sweet and cute voice...i could not really imagine now kung paano ka magsermon ng student. =)

Antagal bago ko nakita ang piece na lalapatan ng tunog doon sa page ni Pax. Nakabungad kasi kung hindi "darkness", eh "blood" o kaya ay "ghost". Sabi ko sa kanya, hindi ko kayang gumawa ng horror song. Hehe.

Buti nasa mood noong mag-joke ako kundi semplang na naman ang beauty ng lola mo. Hehe.
A true test of someones love for us is when the going gets tough, those are also the times when we truly learn how we feel about someone else. Nice collaboration.
I just love what you did in the refrain my pretty friend... Your vioce is cute and so well fitted on the song. I simply love it... Now I can't believed I wrote the lyrics of this song... its amazing, a huge thanks to you...

I have been fighting this writer's block and your poem has a perfect subject for a song. Besides, I really like the concept as I can fully relate to it.
