To your self in progress

I admire how you stare yourself in the mirror, naked with every fresh wound yet slowly grasping  the truth that you are human after all- and sometimes you are left with no choice but to face the reality that every fiber of your being is a reflection of the love you’ve given. I admire how… Continue reading To your self in progress

I am tired of this “okay-then-not-okay” cycle as part of the healing process.

Emotional pain affects every aspect of your life. When you are heart-broken, your physical body is unable to function properly, and your mental health suffers as well. I despise my current situation. I wish I had the ability to instantly heal myself. The healing process is bizarre. There are days when I feel fine and… Continue reading I am tired of this “okay-then-not-okay” cycle as part of the healing process.

Comeback Isn’t Real (Hindi Lahat Dapat Balikan)

After breakups, cool offs, hanapin-ko-lang-sarili-ko momints, and such, people around often romanticize the idea saying, “If you truly love someone, then win him/her back.” Funny how they put an intensifier ‘truly’, when in fact it meant the opposite for some. However, the truth is that the so-called comeback depends on the situation. If the past… Continue reading Comeback Isn’t Real (Hindi Lahat Dapat Balikan)

Dear heart

Dear heart, Alam ko kung gaano kabigat ang dinadala mo ngayon. Ang hirap masanay sa mga bagay na panandalian lang pala. Ang sakit iwanan ng biglaan. Sana pwede ibalik ang nakaraan at magwarning sa sarili. Alam kong dumadating na sa punto na napapadasal ka nalang na sana pwede mong i-skip yung masakit na process. Sana… Continue reading Dear heart

Now, I Choose my Worth

Sometimes, it is totally okay not to be okay. It’s okay to choose yourself. Sometimes we need to compose our self first before stepping into reconciliation. Ironically, you wanted to save the friendships, the best relationship you ever had with the most important people, yet you are still hurting. Keeping your distance to those people… Continue reading Now, I Choose my Worth

MAY NAKALAAN PA PARA SAYO

Maaaring iniisip mo parin yung mga ‘sana’ at ‘what ifs’. Maaaring nanghihinayang ka pa rin sa kung ano na sana kayo ngayon. Maaaring iniisip mo pa rin yung mga panagarap na sabay ninyong binuo at mga alaala na ginawa ninyo ng magkasama. Maaaring hinahanapan mo pa rin ng mga kasagutan ang mga tanong mong ‘bakit’… Continue reading MAY NAKALAAN PA PARA SAYO

An open letter: Para sa taong kasama kong bumuo ng pangarap

Alam kong dalawang taon nang mahigit ang lumipas. Sana masaya ka sa naging desisyon mo. Sana, unti-unti mo nang natutupad ang mga pangarap mo; mga pangarap mo na unti-unti nating binuo. Naaalala mo ba nung tayo pa? Nung mga panahong umiiyak ka saakin dahil ang liit-liit na ng tingin mo sa sarili mo dahil pakiramdam… Continue reading An open letter: Para sa taong kasama kong bumuo ng pangarap

What I’ve learned from the boys who almost loved me.

To the boys who almost loved me before, I thank you for coming into my life. It was indeed sad when you decided to leave, but now I’m finally able to start learning from the lessons you’ve left behind. With each hesitation, I’ve found my answers. With each uncertainty, I’m reaching a point of clarity.

When you are used and then abandoned

I sat on a concrete pathway along the grass-filled plains as the bevy of girls played dodgeball nearby. Hearing them laughing and shouting in enjoyment, wonderful thoughts conquered my mind. A lot of “what ifs” popped out as I viewed the watery plains, the insects, and the dragonflies. After a moment, my reverie was disrupted… Continue reading When you are used and then abandoned
