All that's known
From here to the past
There is light
There are shadows
But take me to the lasting parts
From the past

And we're cold
And putting up fronts
Because it's a coping skill
And that jazz.

But here we are
Found together
Under cherry red skies,
Like birds of a feather
Or dying stars,
Seen distantly from emerald grasses.

If I could hold
Your heart entirely
I would hold it so close
To mine
That your warmth
And mine
Would flourish
Into ours.

You are the red and orange of the sunset
And i am the grey and blue of the clouds.

You are pink and blue and green,
And I am the lilac, the yellow, and the soft orange.

Hold me
To hold me over
I am cold
And i am calm
And we are the the daylight,
And simultaneously the nighttime.

Valsa George
There was
none
to
listen
to her

Her words were like:

- A cry in the wilderness
that broke and shattered on woody trunks

- The howl of a lone wolf
that rose in the dead of the night

- The cry of an infant
that told the world, it was hungry

The cacophony of discordant orchestra
that left a jarring effect on the listeners

Her words sounded meaningless
To a world that spoke a different tongue

With no receptacle, her words like heated waters
Evanesced into vapor and billowed upward
Like coils of smoke to freeze into clouds

But one day it rained down,
Quite unexpected…….

With thunder and lightning!

Mahal na mahal kita
kahit ilang tula na naisulat ko
o ilang tala nasa langit
di sila papantay
sa pagmamahal ko sayo

*eng trans:
i love you so much
even with the number of poems i've written
or with the number of stars in heaven
they can never equate
to the love i have for you
para kay wjh / for wjh
