Angel

.. resurrected from the archives of 2011




Angel
your eyes amazes me
searing so deep in my soul
and your smile so spontaneous
leaves me breathless on the ground
i don't know how to say this
but i guess i couldn't really admit
that you are so mystical
angel that brings bliss in my life
go on and soar above my angel
be always wary on your thoughts
for i know you've a heart so golden
that straighten those unlikely ones

Dreamland

the sunset was fulfilling
as the two of us spent time;
t'was like we're oblivious
of the world around us
uncaring of the sweeping,
raw emotions
that seemed to envelope us..
creating a beautiful abyss
a heartfelt bond
that no one could explain
but the language of the heart

it may seem futile
it could pose a danger
but i guess
it would worth the try
then again
we still have our sanity
to unstep from the limits
knowing deep inside
that dreamland is never too far
..from reality

I shoved you away

And you kept coming back

I told you to stop

But you have been persistent

I want you to win

So I rested my case

I thought it was over

But you said, it has just started

I pleaded for mercy

But you just laugh

I tried to explain

And then you shrugged

I tried to lock my gaze

Yet you vowed your head

I tried to kiss you

Then you can't be moved

I tried to say goodbye

You din't believe me

 I tried to negotiate

But you gave no options

I asked forgiveness

You just smiled

I told you I'm dead serious

You:poker faced, then laughed

I asked you out

You said, yes or no?

I told you it was half-meant

But the period hung

I reached out your hand

And then you were gone.

Thankfulness

I rejoice in singing  praises unto You

For I am humbled by Your compassion

For I am lifted through Your mercy

Crying my pain into oblivion

You have given me the courage

Strengthened me from my cares

You wiped my tears of sorrow

Assuring me of Your presence

Words unspoken in truth

I wish to cry out for thankfulness

For Your everlasting clemency

For Your undivided love

Because of the unending guidance

And the light you kept on showing

My path has never wavered

My thoughts were always into You

My appreciation would never be enough

But allow me to extol You

Allow me to share how wonderful You are

That mere words couldn't depict

Through these lines,

May everyone know

That You are the living God

Who never faltered in keeping

the promises You have vowed

Salimbayan

Buwan ng Wika - The month of August is celebrated in the Philippines as the language month. It just dawned on me this evening to accentuate this occasion with a month-long poem of posts composed in the Filipino language. I'm quite excited about it because i was inspired by someone i recently knew who has accomplished a visual delicacy when it comes to poetry and photographs.

Salimbayan

O tinig mo'y aking pilit na inapuhap
sa salimbayan ng pluta'y di ko malasap
Niyang samyo ng 'Yong kabanguhan
anopa't di ko maramdaman




Bakit tila napawi na ang 'yong mga ngiti?
bagama't wala ka namang panaghili
Totoo bang panaho'y nakapagpapabago?
pagkat di tanggap ng isipan kong ika'y di na totoo




O sa saliw ng lagaslas ng hubad na ilog
ang mukha mo'y di ko na maaninag
sa salimbayan ng muntihang mga alon
ika'y pumanaw at lumisan




Anopa't ako'y nasiphayo
pagkat di kita nahango
ni di ka man lang nagpaalam
kahit isang liham ay wala kang iniwan


Sa salimbayan ng aking damdamin
asan kama'y di parin maamin
ng pusong naiwan ng lihim
na di tugma ang panahon natin



Othello

Kahilingan

Kailan ka makauunawa?
sa mga salitang nakalihim sa hiwaga
datapwat ito'y ipinanukala
subalit itinikom mo ang iyong pag-asa
Muli kong ipinamanhik
at ikaw nama'y nagpaunlak
kaya aking muling isinaysay
ang katotohanang
iyong itinatwa
ngunit hindi pala sapat
pagkat ito'y 'di mo matanggap
ang mensaheng isinisiwalat
bagkus, nasaktan ka ng labis
at halos di makaimik
subalit ako'y hindi lumihis
ako'y hindi sumuko
para lamang ika'y matuto
sa mga aral na wari mo'y tanso

Hanggang ngayo'y di kita matinag
sa puso mong kay ilap
kahit ibukas lamang saglit
upang ang liwanag ay sumapit
ngunit di mo man mawari
ika'y laman at sa isipa'y laging sumasagi
mangusap lamang itong puso'y
iyong mapagtantong ito'y walang halong biro
pagkat nais kong ika'y magmana
ng kayamanang di nasisira
nawa'y iyong maunawa
na ang mga di nakikita'y
doon nati'y ilagak ang pag-asa

Lamang, ako ay hamak
sino ako upang iyong paniwalaan
walang kakanyahan o maging kayamanan
o ni kapangyarihan
bagama't ako'y kawalan
ika'y aking isinama
sa aking mga pagpapanata
at nawa'y ika'y matamnan
ng isipang mapanaliksik
na 'di nahuhungkag
sa mga bagay na malinis
kundi'y ika'y maging mapanuri
at maunawa ang ibig kong iparating
na iyong madama ang kasidhian
ng kalooban kong ika'y mapabilang
sa kawan na may basbas
na magmamana
ng buhay na walang hanggan

Divide me not!

A man's character may be learned from the adjectives which he habitually uses in conversation. 

Mark Twain 

do not tremble when the strong aims to crush

or weaken thy knees when it attacks

do not lose hope upon the valleys of fear

or faint upon the scythes of wrath

be compassionate to those of less

and be patient to those of rue

forget their wisdom clue

and bury their rudeness without due

do not symphatize...

it's better to emphatize

be a an ear to listen

of worries that needeth spoken

heed those who are weary

to orphans you must show mercy

wipe away the tears of grief

& strengthen the world, void of peace

care to smile to strangers

you might not know how they feel

you might have lifted some of their sorrows

in their delight of grin despite in a burrow

fear no more

where the end is near

at long last you will see

the promise of eternity

January is almost over, yeeha!!! thoughts of endless hope keeps running through my head, i can't help but stand still. The journey must go on. ;)

Brushes of experience

All men who have achieved great things have been great dreamers. 

Orison Swett Marden 

twisting ecstacy

regalia of boon

waking the dormant

ice-clothed pawn

simmering hotness

allowing to erupt

disconnected thoughts

in a gentle abrupt

brewing aroma

of delicacies on fire

craving for nothing

in the barbless wire

restless libido

containing thy mind

closing innuendo

in a refined halo

jekyll and hyde

who shall appear

in falseness of truth

or the glory of wrath

epitaph carved

the smile of an inkling

relieved to the deathbed

in rising from within

Oracle bequeathed

nowhere to run

where? for refuge

in solitary? or Rune?

clasping hands

sweat unbound

dripping, flowing

down and round

sparks and shocks

numbing nerves

of cracking rapture

to doom awaits.

when things aren't just the way going you want 'em to, it seems that it ends up more complication. better go with the flow, forget to counter, just see through it.
