Disruption

Touch not what you cannot love, Hold not what you cannot keep, Breathe in, take in as much, But not too much that your soul will bleed. Reach in with the purest of thoughts, Unless momentary, Life is not a temporary thing, Connections are never secondary, Nothing in this world isn’t fated, Even if you ….  Read More

Pitchblende

You and I – Peas in a pod; Pitchblende. Radioactive mud. Time does heal wounds; Memories scar so good. Walls exist but in the mind, Great thinkers can be blind- Stars travel far and wide. Dreamers cross the great divide. Never in a thousand years, Even though a thousand miles- Parallel but never aligned. See ….  Read More

The Fall

When autumn came, I was ready to fall, along with the leaves and broken branches – now unafraid to be serenaded by the shadows of winter summer is now but a long and lost memory and I, waiting for rebirth in the stillness of today #scribbles #pencilart #afternoonthoughts

Remembering

I think of you, the world in between is chaos; when I breathe or pause, I fly away to this distant memory, a natural response.   My mind is now so tired of things, but never of you, never of the days that made a difference, never of the freedom it offered,   and as I move in my ….  Read More

Forgotten Wave on a Distant Shore

  I reach for you. Like the waves, my fingers almost touching shore but never getting there. Sometimes the sea is so vast and stronger waves reach the best shores,but I am just weak, like a whisper that you cannot hear.  

Sketched

  I woke up in the middle of the night, asleep in haste, waiting for a sight, but when it came, I looked away, again, To stare longer, now in vain. I tried to trace – Contours of your face, Not remembering the pain – of you, A stab that came without a cue; Made sense of ….  Read More

Flight

  You, with hands that soothe, Eyes that gaze inside my soul, and words that calm me down in a squall, your presence stops time, a certain peace that cannot be found, but in your mystic spell, Soul that knows me well, only for a brief moment, minutes were like hours, hours just like years, an ….  Read More

Free

The end of misery, putting up smiles with tears, welled up in my eyes, sacrifice, life be good, life be fair, people pleaser, no more, I’d be, not a jester of sorts, but only a few, sincere souls connect, time to live without regret, to love passionately, to breathe and dance, under the rain, without fear, ….  Read More

Jeepney ng Panaginip

  Sumakay ako sa Jeepney, Nasa kabilang upuan ay napansin kong nakaupo ka din pala at may itinatanong ka sa akin ngunit di ko marinig, May itinatanong din ako, Ngunit di ko din madinig ang aking sarili. Nakakatawa (tuwa?) di ba? Ngunit parang ganoon lang, at nagkaintindihan din. Isa palang panaginip. Hanggang dito ba naman? ….  Read More

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
