Confessions**
(After St. Augustine of Hippo)

Late have I loved you,
beauty so old and so new.
Late have I heard your
gospel so graceful and true.

You were within me
while I was seeking the truth
out in the world and
wasting the years of my youth.

Vanity kept me
roaming in shadowy night.
Till you cried out and
showed me the way to the light.

Now that I’ve tasted
wonderful joy from above,
I am consumed and
hunger and thirst for your love.

... the prophet is a fool,
the spiritual man is mad...
Hosea 9:7

The lyrics of this sacred song
Were not childlike scrawl
They were elegant cursive
Cultured and small
They were found by a Madman
On an Asylum wall
They were written of love
From the All in All:

Could we with ink the ocean fill
And were the skies of parchment made
Were every stalk on earth a quill
And every man a scribe by trade

To write the love of God above
Would drain the ocean dry
Nor could the scroll contain the whole
Though stretched from sky to sky

Unknown


This poem was penned
By a deft, determined hand
No one knows to modern day
Was it writ by Angel? Man?
There is yet no doubt
It was part of God's great plan
And yet many do not see...

They still cannot understand.*

This part of that song was written on the wall of an asylum. The author is unknown.

Its almost 2:30 in the morning, and I have to get to sleep. This song just keeps playing in my mind. It is quite beautiful. There's a lovely rendition by MercyMe. You can view it on YouTube. God bless you all!

It is difficult to swallow when vision becomes reality
Man is in chains from birth without a single moment free
What seems it is not,what is not just to uncover to see
Truth is out of bounds and seems just beyond any plea

Truth can not be seen in pieces virtue carries its reward
The fountain of all love ,truth and beauty is my God
With all His graces He is my savior and He is my Lord
With all my idiosyncrasies ,weaknesses I am His ward

My God remains perfect in ultimate truth,,love and beauty
Being supreme commander universe is commanded by thee
I am just a drop of water He is my green ocean and my sea
What kindness I celebrate ,cherish that no where else could be

Your mellifluous smiles
in the beautiful mornings are
the whispers of
magical hymns
to the ears of my soul
in harmony with
heart beats of my life.

Are you aware of a bloodless war?
No soldiers at the field
No armor or a shield
No singing tribal chants
No king giving grants

Have you been in a bloodless war?
The war is a game
A game inside a frame
The boy with eyes of blue
And you without a clue

Together with the boy
A chanted hymn of joy
A hymn of tongue and lips
A ritual without scripts

A ritual of one's own
Tradition for the throne
Until one stops and breathes
And you see the ****** sheets

with a bit of "the significance of essence" (ang kabuluhan ng kakanyahan)

ako'y pinoy sa isip, sa puso't damdamin
at may paniwala sa sariling atin
gawaing pinoy maipagmamalaki
isigaw sa mundo at ipagsabi
na...
Dito sa Silangan ako ay isinilang
Kung saan nagmumula ang sikat ng araw
Ako ay may sariling kulay na kayumanggi
Ngunit hindi ko maipakita tunay na sarili
Kung ating hahanapin ay matatagpuan
Tayo'y may kakanyahan dapat na hangaan
Subalit nasaan ang sikat ng araw
Ba’t tayo ang humahanga doon sa Kanluran (Francis "kiko" Magalona)

(Gloc 9)
Bato bato sa langit
Ang tamaan’y wag magalit
Bawal ang nakasimangot
Baka lalo ka pumangit
Pero okay lang
Hindi naman kami mga suplado
Sumabay ka sa amin na parang naka eroplano
Sa tunog ng gitara
Kasama ng pinakamalupit na banda
Pati si "kiko"
Magaling-hindi parin kayang tapatan
Parang awit na lagi **** binabalik balikan
Stop-rewind i-play mo
Nakapakasaya na para bang birthday ko
Alam mo na siguro ang ibig kong sabihin
Hindi na kelangan pang paikutikutin
Baka lalong matagalan lang
Lumapit at makinig na para iyong maintindihan
Mga salitang sinulat na hindi ko papel
Pero pwede ilatag
Na parang banig na higaan
Kapag hinawakan ang mikropono parang nabubuwang
Eh kasi naman siguro
Ganyan lang kapag gumagawa kami ng bago
Medyo nabibilisan
Hindi mo naisip na pwedeng mangyari
Magkasamasama lahat ay kasali!

minsan ko nang ipininta
aparisyon ng aking obra
doon,,, manipulasyon lamang ang kontra
pagkat ilusyon lang ang gamit kong tinta
o pareng makata
imulat ang mata
sa larawang likha ng madamdaming kataga
kung itutuon sa puso't isipan, titimo talaga
sa isang alagad ng sining
walang boses na matining
ang tulad nating mandirigma ay isinilang
upang ang kapayapaan ay isaalang-alang
bato-bato sa lawak ng langit
hinde tamaan wag magagalit
sa aking apat na sulok ng panitik
mensahe ko sa quadro ay hitik
ang lihim sa likod ng lalim
may gintong butil na di patitigil
lantaran man ang talinghaga
patagong kaway agwat ng kataga
sapagkat sa bawat pag-ani
ng parirala sa aking balarila
muli ngang sisibol itong binhi
at para sa kanya...ako ay nag-punla

(curse one)
bilang isang nilalang na sumumpang
mag hahatid ng mga musikang
kaylan man ay hindi maka-kalimutan
at inaalay kahit kanino man
patuloy lang susulat ng tulang
sumusugat-gumugulat ang kantang
nakaka-mulat ng mata. Anu mang
pag subok kayang kaya pag nag sama sama na
ang mga sundalo ng kalsada
“Habang iyang edukasyo’y nakaluklok sa dambana,
kabataa’y yumayabong nang mabilis at sagana,
nararating pati langit ng magiting niyang diwa;
sa siklab ng edukasyon kasamaa’y humihina,
alam niyang paamuin iyang bansang walang awa,
ang mabangis ay nagiging bayani ng kanyang lupa.” (Jose "pepe" Rizal)

He* loves you still! ,even you two were desperate
Now that You learn and beginning to love me more
i can't love you back just like the way he does
because I do love *
" Hymn! ... "
this is for you Ana.
and also for hymn.....
cuz my heart beats only twice!
that is why--the symbol for love
is less than 3
