Phantom of Dreams
This is really unusual and I cannot put it behind me. I already knew when tears came out of my eyes, and for no reason I wept. Writing the letters of your name on a canvas where I drew your face. I am not like this, and it has never occurred to me that something …. Read More
Dead Ends
I embrace you, defeat under the morning sunlight. My hands, forever tied, in the spell of your goodbye. I let you go, with a promise of remembering your sight, Tomorrow I shall lose you in a blink of an eye. No regrets, a little fear, a thousand tears. Let my memory forever hold you …. Read More
Telepono
“Answering Machine”- Isang Nakakatawang Nakakainis na Pangyayari” Nag aral kami ng mga “spiel” para sagutin ang telepono ng tama. “Standardized” ika nga, para maayos ang dating sa mga customer ng kumpanya. Syempre, kuntodo practice kami at madalas kaysa minsan ay preparado sa pagsagot. Kahit sino sa kumpanya ay “required” na sumagot ng maayos, at kailangan …. Read More
Paglimot
Mga sulat sa hangin. Malayo man ang tanaw, malalim man ang pinagmumulan, ako ay isang nawawalang kaluluwa sa gitna ng kasiguraduhan ng lahat ng bagay. Matapang ako at kaya ko mag isa, pero minsan ay masakit din palang magtanggal ng balat-kayo. Tao rin pala ako, nasusugatan, naiipit, umiiyak, nalulungkot at naghahanap ng sagot sa mga tanong. ….

August Sun
Now you are gone, my August sun, Stars are dead, Daylight shun. Burned at the palm of your cold cold hand, No Februaries, can come undone. Not my moon, not my wind, but a borrowed song, kept from within. From souls, afar, My August leaf, Falling fast, without relief. Goodbye, my muse, farewell, adieu. …. Read More
Prayer to Close Doors that Have Been Opened
To you, the souls that have been roused, From your slumber and peaceful sleep, A pact for oblivion, I shall weave, I will no longer in my dreams weep; I offer you my prayer of hope and peace, Salvation and happiness, spare you from tears, I am a fool and the passages of time Were opened, ….

Transient Life
“Terrible force of life, I embrace Thee…” -of the many forces, only love surpasses all. I often wondered if truly we existed only in one plane, or if this is the only reality there is. There are things that I cannot explain or make sense of, like places and events and people whom …. Read More
Antidote
For every pain, there is a balm, Every wound, a scar; Every journey is by far, A gauge of how tough you are. Leave behind worries, It has been a long wait, Some will listen to your stories, Some will ridicule your fate. Let your happiness be yours, Not someones else’s place, Perhaps you …. Read More
Sound of Rain
Today I cried, a thousand tears, I heard you, and you me, but the muted sounds of our souls are dying For this, our destiny You speak without words, I act without gestures, We are missing all the cues The world now nearing darkness, All I hear, your sadness, and this is just madness of rainbows ….

Metamorphosis
Let us shake our heads, violently fight against their words, We can be more than who we are, be greater than the sun, Our spears will hold them away, keep us from hurt and fear, Light up! Show up, take heart my dear; You are a God beneath your flesh, break down the cocoon and bare the …. Read More
