Better With You

I want frappe.
I want macchiato.
But ginger tea
is better with you.

I want Mac and Cheese.
I want Pesto.
But pancit canton
is better with you.

I want sorbet.
I want gelato.
But ice scramble
is better with you.

I want PS5.
I want Nintendo.
But Truth and Consequence
is better with you.*

I want Ruffles.
I want Doritos.
But Piattos
is better with you.

I want Greenbelt.
I want Solenad.
But Shopee and Lazada
is better with you.

I want Bali.
I want Morocco.
But Silang, Cavite
is better with you.

Before You Sleep

Before you sleep
I can recommend
These suggestions
On how your day will end

Before you sleep
Would you prefer
A luxurious massage
A soft skin to pet and pamper

Before you sleep
What will it be
Listening to love in poetry
Or rhymes in a symphony

Before you sleep
Perhaps a movie
Of romance or comedy
Chips will be ready

Before you sleep
Will you fancy a dance
We’ll make up the steps
I’ll take that chance

Before you sleep
You can choose
My arms wrapped around you
Or my hands on the loose

Before you sleep
My last offer is a kiss
For only five minutes
That’s a promise

Before you sleep
The lights are now dim
Make a choice
Even in a whim

Before you sleep
Before you sleep
Before
I
slee
Zzzz…
