I'm sad

But I let people see me smiling

What's worse, I made them laugh

When I can count those times that I'm genuinely happy

 

I'm weak

But I let people use me as their shoulder-to-cry-on

What's worse is they open up to me

When I can't even fix myself

I can't even help myself

 

I bring my collection of masks everyday

Especially those for happy occasions

And wear one when needed

Then I realized I can count those times I didn't wear one

Chapter 9: I only read your poems today (sorry, a bit busy). I think they're good but I see a few typos in some (like jem, instead of gem). I'm hoping you'll fix them. Anyway, I don't really care about typos but I just wanted to tell you, in case you wanted to correct them.
I felt your disappointment and frustration when you told us about BTS' concert in Manila and how you didn't get to go. That girl to whom your grandfather gave the ticket is very lucky. She received a F-R-E-E SVIP ticket! That's something. Well, at least you and your grandfather might have helped someone. Malay mo po, medyo gipit sa pera iyong babae na iyon at ang libreng ticket na yun ay nakatulong sa kanya. ;-)
