I welcomed you and you were blind, You’ve opened places That were once shut- You broke rules and I, just watched you from behind. Take me away into your madness, I no longer fear nor run, Roam and decipher, Live and wander, Within the attic of my (your) mind. -Cricket
Mirror, mirror on the wall, You are the fairest of them all- Your soul has brightness, resonates, Envious moonlight seals our fate. I lit a candle in the dark, Shot an arrow, missed the mark, Mirror, mirror can’t you see? I see you, and I see me. Mirror, mirror now I know, Your heart is …. Read More
Something light, something sweet; something that makes me smile – Coffee beans and laughter, happy-ever-afters, unforgotten summer. A robin passed by and chirped, the song reminded me of that week; Something witty, something unique, Something uplifting, intellectual mystique.

Spill it out, spill it out, Your mind is a drought. Sleep has no room in the wars of the heart; No justice in silence, no cure in fear- No healing, no mercy, just your silent tears, shadows are hiding what’s in the loom; When flowers are dying, and dead in the bloom – all that’s left is ….

I have gotten old, I have gotten old, My soul though aged, is loudly bold, I can shout at my demons, and make them fold, Spin my emotions into threads of gold. The sag on my face is a work of art, My arms are drooping, but my spirit’s stout, I know I can dream, when …. Read More
Paano ba sukatin ang lalim ng dagat? Ilang oras ba ang kailangan gugulin upang magmahal? Isa? Dalawa? Tatlo? Isang Araw ba? Upang malaman na totoo at wagas? O dalawampung taon, dalawang dekada? O isang kisapmata? – When a lifetime unfolds before your eyes in seconds. Filling the void. I saw it and everything faded in …. Read More
I held you in my hand, you were weak, slipped through, like a thunder streak, vanished from my sight, pain, our plight, you are me and I, you, mirrors, breathing the same air, longing for the same dream, each night we reenact, and renew our pact, that was written, a million light years, of ….
