Sumasabay saking pag-ibig ang pagluha ng langit
Sumasabay sa ihip ang bulong ng damdaming
"Tama na, bitiwan mo na sya."
"Tama na't bumangon ka na."

Parang tubig na maingay sa bubungan
Ang tinig **** minsang
Himig na pinakaiingatan
Parang butil na hindi mahawakan
Ang pagtibok ng puso kong iyong sinusugatan.

Ilang beses man akong umasa
Mga salita mo ma'y tila kilig lamang sa umpisa
Naglaho na lang ang lahat,
Pano na ang tayong sabi mo ay alamat?

Tama na ang paasang mga salita
Tama na ang pagbihag sa mga pusong pariwara
Tama na ang mistulang sabi **** "mahal kita"
Pagkat alam kong ikaw yung tipong
Palaruan lamang ang tingin sa Tadhana.

Bibitawan ka na, pagkat tapos na
Parang lirikong nalaos nang bigla
Parang boses na napaos na parang bula
Nagbago, naglaho, oo, *
mistulang alaala
Paagkat sabi ng kaibigan ko'y gawan namin ng kanta
Ang liham nang nagdurugong puso
Na paulit-ulit **** pinaasa.

Sabi ko, di na ko magsusulat eh. Tara, hindi naman tayo mauubusan ng salita eh.

God's love for us is not a love
That exempts us from trials,
But rather a love
That always sees us through trials.

In prosperity, God tests our gratitude;
In poverty our contentment;
In despair our hope;
In darkness our light thru FAITH;
and at all times our obedience to God.

God made all things beautiful in His time!

To every comma, I'll pause;
To every period, I'll stay;
To every question mark, I'll wonder;
And to every exclamation point, I'll get excited.
You welcome me w/ the warmth of Your Words,
So, Hello Poetry!

Is it easy to let go of you?
When I know, You're my life.
When I know, I need Your every Word.
When I know, I learn from You.
Can I truly say Goodbye Poetry?

Imagine a world without words
A world full of miseries & Mysteries
Reading actions, mixed w/ emotions.
Imagine a world without language,
A world that's too hard to understand,
Or maybe I would be a nomad now.

If I stop writing,
It's as if I'm drawing myself to death.
I would face empty pages,
I would sing empty phrases
With my dying lips.

If I stop greeting you "Hello"
Still, I wouldn't be able to say "Goodbye."
I would rest in my grave,
I would put hymns in my wandering soul.

And so there'd be no goodbyes,
Instead, I'll say, "Hello Poetry!"
And see you around!

Aakyat at bababa
Ganyan ang alon.
Sisikat at lulubog
Ganyan ang araw.
Ihihip at bubulong
Ganyan ang hangin.

Maaksyon, parang damdamin
Nagbabago, ganyan ang pag-ibig
Pag-ibig ng likha pero di ng May Likha.

We run, we respond;
To challenges, problems & stimuli —
Constantly called upon to analyze situations.
We think too much, we talk too much
But we listen too little.

What fuels us?
Isn’t it His wisdom that soaks us in grace?
Isn’t it peace so we can deal well with the crazy fray?

Hearts, be in notion of being still!
We need to figure out how —
How to sit at Jesus’ feet.
He is here! He can be known!

We can learn
Not just by absorbing His truths
But by basking in His presence!

“I don’t have time to sit;
So much to do; So many challenges to be met.
I need to go fast! Sitting isn’t just going slow,
It’s actually stopping!
If I stop, I won’t get anything done!”

Rational but His principle is counter-intuitive.
Far more powerful than logical human “wisdom.”
You can’t win against the world
By trusting in worldly means.

I have been grieved by numerous trials
My faith, You've tested by fire.
You revealed Yourself,
And I came to know You
More than Your Name.

I love you,
Though I have not seen you.
My belief was kept in my innermost self,
And You filled me w/ Your glory.

I was so ignorant, that was the former me.
"You shall be holy, for I am holy," You told me.
Make my heart pure, overflowed by Your love
To obey Your truth, for I have been born again.

As the grass withers; as the flowers fall;
Your Words remain in me.
"The grass withers and the flowers fall, but the word of our God endures forever." - Isaiah 40:8 (NIV)

For, "All people are like grass, and all their glory is like the flowers of the field; the grass withers and the flowers fall, - 1 Peter 1:24 (NIV)

As for me and my house,
We will serve the Lord.
We will build a home,
A home that once built me,
A home that I dream to build us.

Let me hold fast to you as we shall be one
And I will not be ashamed,
For I will be with you in both spirit and truth.

The Lord has fit us together, I am your helper (Gen 2:18)
I was brought to you, from the rib that was taken from you (V. 22).

I will walk in love as Christ loved us
And gave himself up, what a fragrant offering! (Eph 5:2)
I will submit to you as to the Lord (V. 22)
Love me as you love the Church, the Bride of Christ (V. 25).
Let me be washed of water w/ His words
That He may sanctify me (V. 26)
Let me respect you as you love me as your wife. (V. 33)
