La Union

Life comes in waves—
Some high
Some low
They break
Push us on the edge
To make a beautiful mess

A friend shared a video of La Union's beach wave and suddenly, I found myself composing this little poem #life #launion #philippines

Vilma.

Clear blue skies
Sun above our heads
Still it's a gloomy day
I dreamt of a moment
Where the soil is dry
And the children never cried
Yet a dream is but a dream
Still it's a gloomy day
Dusty clouds
Tiny raindrops
Countless woes
Suspended for eternity
It's a gloomy day

Tula #1

Palamuti ng pasko
Pawang mga puso
Sumayaw sa alapaap
Sabay sa pag kurap
Pag-ibig sa tabi
Hawak na sandali
Huwag mawaglit
Handog na ligaya
Sa'kin ay ipaubaya✒

Sa unang pagkakataon, ako'y nakapag sulat ng munting tula sa wikang filipino. Ashira grevinda mama ajaarum!

You're so hard to find
My mind's getting wired
I'm getting tired
How can I survive—

virtual people
...paper thoughts
years past
bid adieu;
hail the future
travel anew..

Do It Right With Me

Tell me
You want to be my lover
The face that keeps me sane
Save me from the dungeon

I told you I don’t want you
Keep checking up on you
What’s the word of the day
But I don’t want to stay

We’ve been on this
For far too long now
Do it right with me

We’re stronger together
You and me forever
Or is it over
What is it gonna be?

Oh darling please
End my misery
I’m begging you
Are we still

We’ve been on this
For far too long now
Do it right with me
Do it right with me, baby
Honey, please
Do it right

just a quick write up

Grey's Anatomy S07E22

It's easier to be alone.
Because what if you learn
that you need love and then
you don't have it? What if you like it?
And lean on it?
What if you shape your life around it,
and then it falls apart?
Can you even survive that kind of pain?
Losing love is like ***** damage.
It's like dying.
The only difference is death ends.
This? It could go on forever.

--Meredith Grey
