Memories

Meant to be stored
The thoughts
And memories
Kept rising to the surface
And I looked
And chose
Those
That were meant
To be kept

The Journey

Along the way
I found a home
For my thoughts
And some
I wanted to take back
And others
Were meant to keep

Words

The words come forward
Like a never ending stream
Of flowing
Water jewels
That take on the hue
Of sparkling gems
That want to find a home
In the pupils
Of my mind

Minsan/Sometimes

Minsan gusto kong magsulat
Sa isang wika
Maliban sa aking sarili
At makita
Paano ito
Mukha

Sometimes I want to write
In a language
Other than my own
And see
How it
Looks

Dear

Dear ......, how was I to know
That you would change
Everything I believed in
And give me
A new reason
To Live

You (Haiku)

You are everything
My life, my breath, my whole self
Only you can be

Home (Haiku)

It takes a lifetime
To find our precious Selves
And finally come Home
