you love growth
and so do i.
why can't we grow together?
why are you the only one allowed to flourish?
I'm lost

Trees are Wiser

Autumn
Trees are wiser.
Trees are stronger.
Trees are most content.

Trees are taller.
Trees live longer.
Trees do not need shelter.

Trees are tougher.
Trees don't complain.
Trees have the most secrets and stories untold.

Trees are rooted deep.
Trees reach the clouds.
Trees provide homes to animals,
and us.

The greatest providers.
Trees are incomprehensible.
Trees have been since the beginning of time.

If you need advice...
Ask a nearby tree.

The Last Wordsmith
And so death comes,
with crimson tides,
with cold harsh steel,
and graceful strides,
with burning pain,
and sweet release,
but at least this feeling,
will come to cease.

Dark Delusion
You woke up, showered and thinking about what else you should do.

Until you met her.

Standing in the empty street.

The street light lit up as so did your eyes.

your eyes was on fire, because she was burning you up.

She haven’t noticed you looking at her.

She never left your gaze.

Her red dress hugging all her figures.

She stared forward, never tearing her eyes away.

You blinked and she had disappeared.

You felt numb as you looked across the street to find her.

Kissing someone that wasn’t you.

You backed away, woke up and showered.

Continued on your daily routine of never have seen her.

mag isa kang naglakad palayo
naiwan akong nakaupo sa nilisan **** bangko
sinubukan kong hintayin ang pagbabalik mo
pero ako ay nabigo,

ngayon
habang nakatingala ako sa kalangitan
pilit kinakausap ang buwan
humihingi ng kasagutan
sa komplikadong katanungan

araw araw hinihintay ko ang sagot
walang pake kahit nakakabagot
gusto ko nang malaman ano iyong dahilan
bakit mo kinailangang lumisan

Isang bagay na natutunan ko
nung ako ay iwan mo
isang bagay na buong buhay kong pagsisihan
isang malaking kamalian
na nagawa ko sa isang karanasan

at ayon ay
maling mali
maling mali  na
ginawa kong permanente ang isang panandalian

Sincerely Em
I loved you as I gazed into the deep blue that fell onto the far off mountains of little islands with white shores

I loved you as I gazed into crystal waters .. And as vast as the seas would extend, I knew they would find you, they would reach you on the other end

I threw a rock into the ocean .. I blew wishes across the sea .. And with that one roaring wave, I knew, you've sent your love back to me

I loved you as I gazed into the reflections of blue sunny skies bestowing light upon blue droplets in oceanic waters that belonged to the vast, deep love I held for you

As I turned away, I heard the waters calling .. You were reaching into the distance of my soul .. I was tripping, stumbling and falling into the depths your caves behold

So, I promised myself to always remember ..

The far off mountains within crystal waters in which the rock I threw ..
The roaring wave to the wishes I've made across the shinning of blue ..
The longing calls gushing through echoing caves that have brought me to -
That time when I gazed across and beyond the blue waters ..

*Once, when I loved you
Sincerely, Em

Bakit ang tulin?
Hindi ba pwedeng pahintuin?
Oras, ba't ang bilis mo?
Pagbigyan mo naman ako.

Bakit panandalian lang?
Bakit parang napakakulang?
Ang palaging tanong sa'king sarili,
Di ba pwedeng dito'y manatili?

Parang isang kisapmata,
'tong ating pagsasama,
Akin mang gustuhin,
Oras, di kayang pigilin.

Nakakapanghinayang, nakakapanlumo,
Di magawa ang tanging gusto,
Kahit man lang mag-umpisa ng usapan,
Ako'y sadyang nahihirapan.

Hay nalang, paano na iyon?
Mauulit pa ba ang nangyari kahapon?
Alam ko sa sarili ang sagot,
Ngunit ang katotohana'y sapilitang nililimot.

Ang mga panahong ito'y di masusuklian,
Dahil ang oras, di kayang tumbasan,
Di kayang bilihin ng kayamanan,
Mga oras na kasama ka, aking kaibigan.

Ma-iiwan sa'ting mga nakaraan,
Di alam kung tatatak sa'ting isipan,
Ang mga nagdaang panahon tulad nito,
Parang kapayapaan paglipas ng bagyo.
Naisipan ang kahalagahan ng oras sa buhay, dahil ang mga nakalipas na, di na pwedeng balikan pa.

Relaxing rain sounds
clear weeping eyes silently
