X II: for Fred and to his grieving heart

You left me on the edge of a cold sandy beach
Icy waters greeting my feet
Like the endless tears of pain in hell
You left me on the edge of a cold sandy beach

I stand frozen
Looking at the distant memory of you
You kissed me goodbye
And hugged me 'till my tears dry

Waves are coming for me
Piercing wind, scratching my face
Yet I stand there frozen
Looking for you
Waves are coming for me,
yet I stand there frozen,
as tears drown my longing for you.

I walk towards the water
Freezing water, like your heart when you left me.
I walk farther from the shore
Like how I must walk away,
from the memory of you
I drown myself in the deep ocean blue

How I wish I can just drown myself
To feel nothing but the freezing cold
Until my body numbs
Until I can no longer feel...

As I let myself go in the waters that swallowed me
How I wish you could hear my plea
I let go of the future
...and the memories of us.
 Is that we will ever be.


Poem for Fred, as I try to feel his grief of his recent heartbreak.

*Paghinga sa pag-asa*

Alam niyo bang kay sarap mabuhay?
Kaya buhayin ang ating mga nahihimlay
...na pag-asa at wag nang matamlay
Anu man ang kwento ng ating buhay
Paniguradong nasa kamay natin ang taglay na kulay
Ng ngayon at bukas
Hanggang sa darating na wakas.

Huwag sayangin ang ating oras.
Huminga ng malalim at ating isipin
Buhay pa tayo at ating yakapin
Ang isang magandang bukas
Na ating mararating.

*Ang paglalayag*

Halina't maglayag sa musika ng ating buhay
Iwagayway ang bandilang simbolo at ng kulay
Na magpapaalala sa ating bagong buhay
'wag matakot tungo sa kaligiyahang tunay

Tara, habulin natin ang ating mga pangarap
Halika at tikman ang sarap ng alapaap
Ang buhay at ang mga kulay sa bawat langhap
Ng ating hiningang hiram mula sa langit

Kaibigan, samahan mo akong maglakbay
Sumakay sa bangkang gawa sa pinaghimay
na mga pangarap, bukas, at imahinasyon
Tara at gumawa ng sarili nating konklusyon

Mangarap tayo, at abutin ang mga ito
Basagin na ang mga pusong bato
Maglayag tungo sa buhay na ginto
At lumigaya tungo sa tumtibok na puso

Hindi man natin alam kung anu ang naroroon
Gabay natin ang ating panginoon
Maglayag at itungo ang ating tingin
Sa langit ng nagsisiksikang mga bituin

Writings for the Satellite part II

*Expressions of the unwritten*

Staring at your photos on a Saturday
Glancing at your messages, everyday
Might as well be crazy in anyway
'Coz you're in my mind all day

I come crashing, untangling
My words and wishes are dangling
Like droplets of rain, hanging
To the roof above our heads
Where our dreams and wishes..
Linger upon, to someday come true

Staring at your photos on a Saturday
Dreaming of you in every way
Looking at your shadows,
and your silhouette image
Imagining myself, right next to you

Somewhere along the way,
we will find where we belong
But right now, nothing can be more strong
If you let yourself be a line in my song



****Now I am fighting the gravity.

Writings for the Satellite

Somebody stumbled upon my profile in PR, asking if I blog. I did answer but instead I sent him an untitled poem, inspired by his status message. It was the 1st of June.


I am a man, alone
Traveling to his final destination
In this world full of temptations
Breathing, as he feels his world in rotation.

Admires photographs and words
From someone in a different world
Who says he is a satellite looking for a world to orbit
Feeling the waves of a certain heart beat
Checking if on the other side, has it.


We then started exchanging messages in the wired world and eventually through the real-time and wireless means.

I just thought right now what I think the proper title for that poem will be; it is the same title of this entry.
