Boiling Waters
Sa bawat umaga’y tila pako ang sahig,At hindi liwanag ang sa akin’y dumidilig.Dahil pasan ko’y bundok ng pangarap na matindi,At hirap na sa puso’y kumakagat at sumisidhi. Ako’y panganay, sa tungkulin nakakadena,Sa bawat yapak, ang landas ay tila likong selda.Mga pangakong kailangang tuparin,Kahit sarili’y unti-unting lupigin. Aming ama’y pumanaw nang Continue Reading
Sa likod ng ingay ng mundong magulo,Tila lumalaban sa daloy ng kapalaran ang pintig ng pusoAng dating samahan, ngayon ay anino.Mga kabarkada, nasaan na kayo? Ang bawat tawa’y tila alon sa dalampasigan,Sumasabay sa hangin, walang alinlangan.Mga kwento’t lihim na ating ibinahagi,Sa kalyeng iyon, tayo’y parang mga hari. Tambayang puspos ng Continue Reading
Pasko’y dumating, ngunit walang kislap ang tala,Halakhak ng tahanan, biglang nawala.Dati’y puno ng sigla’t saya,Ngayon, katahimikan ang siyang nagdala.

Life has no meaning.It’s just waking and working just to survive.It’s never ending challenges full of doubts .Striving in oceans of hardships without royalty. Life Continue Reading

(PART TWO) First, I was an introvert a long time ago, before I knew what it was called. I remember my senior years, when I preferred to watch my classmates ruin the classroom’s blackboard (well its green thou) with their stupid thing they called artwork. I’m just listening to the Continue Reading

Ikaw ang kape na hindi ako pinapatulog sa gabi, yung patuloy na nagpapa alala sakin na kahit sa pinaka madilim kong parte ay may handang sumama parin para isantabi ang isang gabi patunay na wala sa pait at lamig ang dahilan ng pagka wala ng balanse kundi sa pagka wala Continue Reading
