Filipino A cupboard denizen. / To amuse and amaze myself. / / I write not to say. / But to feelings I dwell. / / I am a builder of some sort. / I was bound to live my life in details. / / I am in the spirit of love. / And fear is my teacher. / / God is my hero. / Thus, I will prevail.
Those beautiful flowers, I envy People get to pick them at a glance They usually have thorns They never would have mind What it feels like to be a **** When forces of cliches pull you out of hate A pride that burns like a weep could this be a mayday haste? or just another fate doomed to be upstaged The elbows that are fused And the unforgotten triangles of loops. Nonetheless we know. With all the drums of war And the roots beneath the willows- Though large it may sound! Misplaced and Escaped- written in the naysayers hand And a smile that doesn't at all rhyme. Sure we all have died somehow But this is the only place A folly tree can fly.

False Dandelions
Confined with restlessness. And yet we struggle. It ***** you from becoming. Like a daffodil thief, they say. The shadows will lure you. From the darkness you made. What is worth to live then, When love was so elusive. And beauty was perfected. Is it to sacrifice, or to obey?   Which options do you fancy? Unfamiliar faces and more aching angles where is your bliss, when passion was misplaced Until the times that I would gladly fall. And to where my shepherd meets me. let life be a mystery And a mess to those who persecutes it. When evil must be known from the nature of good. If I died and went to heaven... what then am I afraid of? Just think of me, my Lord. like whom you are to me.

Acedia. (The soul will live)
I never saw an ugly thing For the colors of hope make it more beautiful The ground that told me to stay firm I should have known first that i wasn't drifting Seeing you with all that vacant smiles I played most parts & myriad too The kind of faith that Jesus told me Lifts people from their tiresome roofs An ever-watchful soul, I am Trying not to fall and losing it The kind of chocolate that no one dig Because falling to pieces is not that even sweet I have changed my cries in order to laugh To light your back with memory of make believe So long, my past, i have traveled through As i endure the damage that you didn't have to take Because leaves do not only fall when winter is coming They only wither until it only hits the ground It was that kind of cloud that pours rain We both knew we all have to run away The fact that i can only be your sweetest slumber A love that should, and would, and could have been.

Unrequited
Beautiful, softly Sipping through, Everyone, Teary eyed A salt in the wound. Sailing stones And moving on Everybody Wants the fall Eagle eye’s Catching the foe Dress or shoes You’ll make your choice You feel its time The moment it hits you Another tune. Just one more tune. A month, or so A minute to work. Turnabouts You lay them all. Sun rises and the other Meets the pole People, we are And a world to succumb The red beats the heart And the blue casts a shadow Bring it on the willows The light is in your world.
