Before you,
My life was just the way it was,
Everything was in its motion
And I do know,
Love isn't void.

Then, you became that revolving planet,
Away from your own axis.
My heart was in collision
For I thought you're just in time --
Just in time to carry my loads,
To breakfree me with a non-universal smile.

But after love has conquered its fear to love again,
I was stomped and that love,
You tore it to be invisible.
In you, it became impossible.

The moment I did stop for awhile,
Was also tht moment I thought I lost the fight.
And the way I've known love
Was intended to forgiveness,
To cuddle myself freed.

I have loved you
And I held you for too long.
Yet, just in time, I have to let you go --
Just in time,
Real love will be bound by its own.

Kape ang sining

"If you tarry til you're better,
You will never come at all.
Don't try to clean yourself up,
You can't do it."

Shame
is a confusing emotion.
Rebuke shame, in Jesus' Name!

Di tayo nagkamaling ipaglaban ang sa atin,
Pag-ibig sa Baya'y ipinag-igting,
Sa bawat kislap ng kandilang nanlilisik.

Minsa'y ang kampana ng puso'y nabibitin,
Ilang beses inanod sa nauudlot na pag-irog,
Bagkus ang lamat ay natapos
Ng kagimbal-gimbal na ulat ng ngayon --
Tayo'y nagwagi, nanalo ang pag-ibig!
"We would only be hurt by love if it's real."

No matter how fine my aggregates are,
I still feel incomplete.
I'm not that strong,
And alone, I'm easy to break.

You could feel my cracks and leave me to banishment,
But You showed me the other face of strength.
Never did I know that there were three hollows within me,
Until I experienced those cracks
that made me lose my own strength.

The hard rock was shuttered,
And many times, I felt so useless.
But there You are and picked me up,
You carried me and reshaped me into a new me.
With tools, I had never known,
You accompanied me to reach my uttermost  potential
And yes, I have known my purpose.

You filled my holes with who You are
As a three-in-one God
And now, I have acknowledged how vital it is
To allow your reinforcement
In order that I could stand still.

You're not just testing my resistance and foundation
But stretching me to the fullness of Your expertise.
You can unused me and break me if You wanted to
But You had Your goodness and grace extended
In order that I may live.

I know, I would be hurt
But I know I was found by You,
And I was made by You --
I was made for You
Seeing those hollow blocks in construction, they remind me of who I am and whose I am now, reinforced for the glory of God! I feel blessed.
"Tao po?" unang beses akong naglakas ng loob,
Pero walang kibo ang nahihimbig na bantay.
Kinakatok ko gamit ang barya ang kahoy na bintana,
May rehas na yari sa metal pero madali namang masira.

"Tao po?" pangalawang pagsuyo
Habang pinagmamasdan ang dekorete sa bawat sulok,
Pero tila ba walang pakikisama ang may-ari,
Kaya't naisipan ko na lamang ibulsa ang pambili.

Halos maka-dalawang hakbang na ako
Nang bigla kong narinig ang kakaiba nyang tono,
"Ano yun?" magaspang ang boses niya
Kaya't napalingon akong bigla't niyari ang sarili pabalik.

Kinapa ko ang bulsa at kinuha ang barya,
At tinuro ang nakabalot na pangarap.
Dali-dali ko itong binulsa habang panakaw ang tingin.
Hanggang napansin niyang nakatitig ako.

Apat na hakbang buhat sa bintana ng pagsusuyuan,
Tinawag niya ako, pero hindi ko sya pinansin.
Puno ng kaba ang puso ko,
At kakaiba ang daing ng pag-iisip ko
Buhat sa pagtawag niya sa akin,
Hindi ko rin makalimutan
Ang malamlam niyang mga matang
Parang may nais ipahiwatig.

Sa pag-uwi ko,
Napatingin ako sa sariling repleksyon
At doon ko napagtagpi-tagpi ang lahat,
*"Nakakahiya, may tagos pala ako."
Tungkol sana ito sa pag-ibig pero habang sinusulat ko na, iba ang naging timpla ng eksena. Medyo nakakatawa. Isang akda para sa mga kababaihang magigiting sa kabila ng kanilang kabuwanang dalaw.

Bayani ang bawat dilag pagkat bahagi ito ng ating pagkatao.
