Sa pagitan ng puso at utak ko Nakahimlay ang mga alaala mo Sa ika pitong daang pitongput pitong beses Na ako’y na darang upang gunitain Mga pangako’t pangarap na lahat ay naging hangin At sa tuwing lilingon sa kanan Palaging kaliwa ang unang hakbang At syang dahilan upang mapatid at Continue Reading

Hindi Ako Pinili

Naiwan nanaman akong mag-isa, tangina.   Wala na ba talagang mananatili at magpapasaya? Kung gaano mo kabilis napagaang muli ang dibdib, ganoon din kabilis napalitan ng pait. Bigla kang nawala. Isang araw bigla na lang nagbago lahat. Pakiramdam ko ako’y iniiwasan ngunit hindi ko alam kung nagmula ay saan. Kagaya Continue Reading

Wasak Na. Wakas Na.

Sa wakas ako ay napagod Hindi, pagod na pala Lumamig na ang kape na tinimpla Na kahit lagukin an nakakatulog na Sa wakas ay pagod na ang mata Ang bagyo na dinala mo’y titila na Mali, tumila na pala Tanggap ko na Sumilong ka lang at ika’y aalis na,umalis na, Continue Reading

Para kay Simon

Marami akong nais sabihin Ngunit mga salita’y kay hirap bigkasin Dumaan ang mga araw na di kita nakikita Pero gusto kong malaman mong Lagi pa rin kitang hinahanap Sa pag gising ko sana di na kita maalala Ang mga panahong pinagsamahan Tila naluma na at kumupas Kasabay ng bawat alaala Continue Reading

Sana

Isang bagsakan para sa katapangan kung mahalin ka. Na ni minsa’y di ko ipinagkaila sa kanila. Pero, isang libong patak ng luha Kasama ang puso kung durog sa kakahintay sayo’t umaasa, Mahal, tama na, ako’y pagod na Maging masaya ka sana, sa piling ng iba.

Patutunguhan

Usok, ng jeep, ng yosi. Nag-iisip kung saan tutungo. Saan nga ba patungo?   Nagtatanto, humihinga, Nagsisindi, bumubuga.   Hinga ng malalim. Nagmamasid sa dilim. Tapos na. Tapos na nga ba? Simulan. Simulan muli.   Tumayo. Ngumiti. Simulan natin sa simula. Baka sakaling makita. Baka sakaling makarating, Sa’yo.
