black curly hair, big brown eyes
tall, dark and handsome, fine man
he was my everything,
and he was mine and I am hers

we first met on social media
stayed late at night until midnight
until he fell asleep on me
I got mad though, but it was fine
I got a fling, but he never talked to me anymore
Instead, that guy invested his time on me

I only saw him as an older brother, at first
because he was the same age as my brother
we went on for a few more days, until he confessed to me
he said I love you first and I said I love you back in return

until we became a couple
we had our first fight, as if we were fighting trying to prove anything
we had our first date as a couple
we met in August of 2022 then
Little by little we started seeing each other,
Our bonding is always about eating
Have fun and stroll the city

In January of 2023, he met my family
I was busy with my internship
While he was busy with work
Until I graduated, we had our first cool off
A time to rest and take things off
Until we got back together again,
And opened our first business venture
And I rested from work, I was diagnosed with conn's syndrome

In 2024, I got my surgery and had my adrenal gland removed
I enrolled in review centers, took the board exam and passed it by May of 2025

We had our second cool off by 2025 of March,
But that time, I realized I wanna get married to you
You proposed to me and as we planned our intimate wedding
And the rest is history....

In our fun-filled love of three years and three months, our sole foundation of love is God.

I cannot wait to be your Mrs. Aquino ❤️
Glorious

That’s how crisp, cool air is
Glorious
The changing of the guard
The cleansing feeling
Of a soft breeze
Across the face
Like a tender kiss
The soothing feeling
Of heat dissipating
It’s invigorating
As the season starts to change
The sounds and smells do
Different foods and tastes
Colors change in nature
And fashion
It’s a fresh start
Where one can be brand new
A reinvention
Glorious
It’s a time for new beginnings
And magic
It’s absolutely glorious
for Blue Sapphire

I heard you  
in the hush between heartbeats,  
in the room where shadows  
tried to name you lost.

I am not far.  
I am the whisper  
beneath your doubt,  
the ember curled  
in the corner of your sigh.

You asked if I would rise,
just for you.  
I already have,  
each morning you chose  
to breathe again.

I am not the sun.  
I am the promise  
it carries.

Come.  
There is a path  
stitched from your longing.  
Step once,  
and I will shimmer  
into view.
train myself to write anywhere and at any time...

so I, being a being,
a poet who carries his mind scheming
with him:
drags along his body and soul,
just in case:

that his hands might feel the touch of
beauty, skin and beyond,
the exteriors of his interiors,
to feel, to feel, to feel
every one of his surfaces,
the reality of his peculiar real

his eyes so one can envision the unimaginable,
and thus, never be satisfied,
for all is
always new,
beyond original

that his ugly, ungainly ears,
may never miss the sound of his tripping & falling
head!over!heels with the realization,
he just might be foolishly
in love

the tastes of life's living that
make his pulse race,
crease his smiling face,
causing his blood pressure so high
he pleads to surrender,
just begging to let his tongue
survive

and smells that arouse,
producing & promising
words proud &  profound,
that have yet to succeed
in capturing
the fullness
of the
special musk odor
that masks
allure of attraction

no, not a lot to ask for…

two zero two five
a silent metronome,
we know exactly when,
when sleep pleads us enter,
and when it bids us adieu,
when we growls for sustenance,
or begs for plenty of the mercy
of emptiness to cleanse our void,
when to compose,
when to repose,
when to dispose,
and when tempos dictate
lay down child,
fallow!

but its greater feat,
when sounds the bells of alarm,
when need is greatest,
for arms embraces,
wet lips to refresh,
bodies to synapse,
eyes require delight,
when needs be greatest,
for that very first infant step
to what can only be ever felt,
but is otherwise undefinable,

for another
+to make us complete,
a unity, an,
us+

upon awakening
I'm not impressed with how I look
No beauty in reflection I see
Except my stomach
Near perfect
At least one detail to love about me
Prompt: "Bring this journal into the bathroom and look at yourself in the mirror. Write down your favorite detail."
