Image

My Medical Ecstasy My Chemical Compound Nutrients of my body In Your Arms - a fervor found.

Your Love (1998)

Image
Your love is the only thing that matters in this world, the only means of my living. Old sacrifices, brand new pain, Laughing under the sun, Crying in a gloomy rain, Just a little drop of your love, Would lift me from vain, Could mean so much to me, For your love is greatest Utmost under heaven. In this life of misfortune- Where tears are familiar matters relatively to failure and wrath, Your love is my guide and my path, To live and let live and struggle, Then my will is to stay with you. With your love at my side, Heaven is here and enough to touch, Whereas this land would fill by hope, Amidst of darkness and starless nights, My only will is to stay with you. With your love that embraces my heart, In this life of tears and sorrow, And even the war is raging on and on, Wherein confusion is all that matters, Still my will is to stay with you.

A Confesion (1996)

Image
In front of your tabernacle my knees humbly bended, My heart vowed, arms are extended, Tears begun to fall though i'm not crying, Your Spirit hugs my soul which is dying. I confess for committing several sins, I am only human, sinner eversince, As the lyre strike solemnly, I'll fall asleep to Your Chest peacefully. Heal my heart, my Master, my Lord, I'm full of miseries, as my mind howled, Embrace my soul, lift me from grief, Ease my sorrows to stop my weep.

Blame it on the wine 10.09.15

Image
I almost crossed the line, And trounced the wall, Between the nerves and spine, By a beautiful soul... Chill with, drink with- Someone's watching us, Write it, understand it, Gearing up, home bound so fast. The moon sinks to the sea, While the sun bursts to the sky, Traffic signs hung on the fallen tree, I am escaping from the spy. Spongy brake pedal with flat tire, Beat time to pay the fine, Infuriating heat via electric wire, But blame it on the wine...

A Poet's Dream, My Obra Maestra (1992)

Image
From the tip of my pen I can't tap, The new idea from a troubled mind, Just a single seed to grasp, That put my queries behind. A dream for an obra maestra, Yet difficult to sense and mould, A poet's hunt is another failure, My hope slides, faith unhold. Willingness wanted to expire, My restless soul started to mourn, The pace of wondering is dull, My heart groan and groan. Sitting uneasy my fate grimaced, But a little hope may entice idea, Even a senseless quest of a fool poet, Could make a poem -- be my obra maestra.  

Wake up Little Darling! (08.27.2013)

Image
Stop the abuse against Women! This one is for all the daughters of Eve. I’m not a good man either but I know their sentiments. Just spread the Love out there……. Tears shed from the windows of your soul, Spirit recoiled in the crumbled wall, Man of his word? Or not trustworthy, How long will you live with this agony? Painful, trust belittled, discouraged, You accepted it due to law of average, From the highest point of blissfulness Should have a lowest mark of sadness, Really? Is that your principle? Is he real too? Demented lies, eternal sorrow, crazy blue, Will you love him forever? Or you’ll be always garbage, Oh never! How many more sacrifices? Your life is full of terrible surprises, Disrespectful, I hate Him! His horns should be trimmed, How many gallons of tears? How many pains and fears? Time of weeping is over, Rejoice! get off from shiver, Wake up little darling, There’s a season to everything…..

Makeover (09.08.13)

Image
From bittersweet to beautiful, From ugly duckling to pretty swan, Lonely teenage days of anxiety Unworthiness and wan…… Metamorphosis, a complete cycle, From egg, larva, pupa to butterfly, All were teasing, mocking you then, Pity them! they don’t even try… The knight bee predicted, foretold, He saw you before you bloomed, From backyard grass to lovely rose, Your limited screen started to zoom…. Adoring you, are all bees now, Truthfulness is hard to find, Even the lord butterfly loves you, The knight bee just staring behind… He’s just watching you until you grow, You, winging, singing, dancing on the floor, Guides you, loves you, until the end, Until Fate allow him to your door…  

When I've loved thee (2013)

Image
When my life in this crazy world  - is running dry, You came along in my humble life Poured your love on me, When all in this place - are fool and lie, And all of my dreams - were hunted and strived, There will be no things in this life -  that could be free, Before I reach - I shall be fried, And those troubles elevated and hyped, I’m shedding tears while bending my knees, Ended in this space - do or die! Seeking the land off from strife, I realized that I love thee, Then all the frictions dissolved in the sky, All I can see are the band of colors and stripe, Gladness came when I’ve loved thee……  

A fruitful day (after the storm) 09.16.1996

Image
The heaven's torch shines - dazzled, A male farmyard fowl howled, The little damsels serve the ladder, Plenty of warblers herded, In the golden field of grain crops, Folks may never feel famished, Like a mirage in a desert, Where fairies can do magic, The honeysuckle is still sweet, Provider of fabulous flower, Makes home looks elegant, Makes the peasants inspired. Heaven's lamp is still up there, Angels descended from nowhere, Pouring the blessings of the season, Hours of delight knocks in our yard, Dreariness days merely forgot, Gladness quickly coming, Gongs hit with grace, Gives solemn harmony, Even the hermits rejoice, Black hues dissolved, What a fruitful harvest! Praise You, Oh our God! Without your love we wonder, What our life would be?

Jai Guru Deva OM

Whispering this sanskrit phrase is glorifying the Creator that will give you waves of joy and lifting your spirit up from pools of sorrow. Ever since,  singing a God’s song is like transferring good signals beaming to the distant stars, it’s also like an interstellar message sending across the entire galaxy up to the universe and deep space thru angels going back and down to the believers. Informatively, it’s like a prayer, wherein contacting God thru mind is the best way to beat the doubtful heart.  It’s a praise, It’s lovely, It’s a glorious act, it’s the burning faith. I remember when I was younger my playful mind always wondering and asking questions of God’s existence, His residence, where He emanated, but these questions always led me to confusion, to further queries, that no one can answer or give clear justifications or provide detailed and undeniable proof of His origin. But still I prayed to Him, worshiped Him, every night and day, my unceasing faith nul

Storm go away! (Beat-up the doldrums) 8.29.1997

Image
Stars are so few, Clouds are the morning dew, A picture of a foggy view..... A very dull night, Crescent is the only light, Owls lost their sight..... It's very cold and dark, Mountain wolves don't bark, Suckers on their mark..... zzzzzz           zzzzzz                      zzzzzz                                zzzzzz Bamboos always nag, Wind challenge the logs, A dale covered with fog..... Can't go to the field, There's a wild whirlwind, Must stay home and take heed..... Like the birds on their nest, Must forget their quest, A journey to the West.....

Is there another love after me? (8.26.1997)

Image
Is there another love after me? The confusion of my heart, my insecurity, Will you forget our love, our glee? Will your devotion be eternally? Is there another love after me? Asking this question's cowardly, But it won't really matter to me, Just say I'm your one and only. Seeking another love will be silly, But it would never happen to me, For I'll give the best love as I can be, So the two of us will enjoy the sanity. I wish you will love me forever, As I've loved you when we're together, Treasure our love till death do us part, Our hands will hold on, as long we've heart. I pray our love will go deeper and sweeter, Our souls mingled, as we kiss each other, My utmost love will be a great weapon --shall be, Against having another love after me.

Just enjoy reading....kung ka-enjoy enjoy... Ledzep Lopez’ sabi-sabi…….Take it from me... 1. Lahat ng ibinato mo pataas, babalik din sa yo pababa.

Sa Diyos lang ako magtatanong ng hindi ko alam ang kasagutan, Siya lamang nakakaalam ng lahat ng bagay, gaano man ka-misteryoso o kasikreto.

Splendid Fury (06.16.2006)

Image
Vagabond and beggar all the time, In the street of love was a deprived, Idiotic in making a rhyme, Where are the arrogance and pride? You are the Splendid Fury, And the Thing of Anger, All those people would worry, To meet their end and their master. Heart is aching and throbbing, In the senseless quest for pleasure, Hope is vanishing and fading, Happiness is not a scale to measure. Hit him once! Break him twice! A broken heart and scarred face, Wounded soul -- remarkable prize, What he gained in this foolish race.

The most expensive gem (11.21.1997)

Image
I've been searching for so long, For the expensive gem in this world, But there's no place on Earth, That leads me for my contentment, Even in a great seven continents, I climbed the highest peak of a mountain, The greatest trench of an ocean, The oasis of the Gobi desert, The fertile soil of the Nile, The wildest and untamed Amazon, The highness of Angel Falls, I dig and destroyed the Wall, The Eiffel Tower in France, The Great Pyramid of Egypt, And talked with the mummies, Asking Miss Liberty, But they lead me to nothing..... On my homeward bound -- I've found a Flower, Along my way, The most expensive gem in the world, Greater than diamond and gold, Is the Heart of the Flower, The Love of a Woman, The Greatest Gift from the Lord......

Food for the gods (12.27.2007)

Image
Aroma is nice - great for the pointed noses, Taste is good - excellent for the bosses, Fresh meat, green leaves - no cholesterol, Fruit juices and seafoods in an eggroll........ On the round table is the satin sheet, Designed by someone's wonderful wit, At the golden door lies the red carpet, Genuises' lips laughing in the sofa set........ Shaking with soft and pretty hands, Ladies are like fairies with magic wands, Greek gods in Olympus are the gentlemen, Servants are trembling to serve them........ To the classy veins - the red wine flows, Royal bloods in tuxedo with white rose - The gods are smiling elegantly, While on the other side is slavery.........

New Ecija:A tribute to a friend (08.26.1996)

Image
I missed the fragrance of green grasses, I like the noise of the cascades, I love the colors of the trees, The farmers busy as bees, The golden and green fields, A cow's and goat's bleats, The chirps of the morning sparrow, The clean river which is shallow, The morning cry of a rooster, That tells us "the dark is over", The rising sun that gives hope, The bridges made up of ropes, The teenage girls unconscious to their beauty, Always ready and busy to their duty, The fresh, cool and clean air, Pebbly roads with pieces of hay, Rocky mountains with a spring, Larks that always sing, Group of ducks like a battalion, The fresh smell of garlic and onion, Wet soil that makes your feet untidy, Forest works that gives a robust body, A perfect home for a dreamer like me, Simple life but a place of glee.....

Simply Care (06.29.1993)

Image
Bless the poor who always struggling just to survive, See the lads in the street begging some pity from above, Feel sorry to the innocent victims of injustice in this moron's society, Cry for the unborn angels who never seen the Earth's beauty, Figure out the unseen gap between the lords and the disciples, Rebuild up and gather the tiny pieces of the crumbled temple, Listen to the weary hearts of those who've lost from the game of love, Yell for the next generation who will inherit the bitterness of life, Groan for the little lasses who've found in this world, the lake of fire, Howl for all those who suffers the famine and viciously war, All I want is for you to simply care, For you to understand the life out there....

Think Pink (01.12.1998)

Image
Hallucinate, Imagine, Think Pink, Unmasculine, feminine, Blink, wink. Forget obscene manner, Never stink, Think flower power, Wink, blink. Live your life, Be gay, Love your life, And stay. Get out from the closet, Do it decently, Lay down your talent, Amaze them convincingly. Boy, we still love you, In spite of, regardless, Even you think pink not blue, Our friendship is priceless.

The Ode (September 15, 1996)

Image
You read my odes and laugh to them, Silly!, Moron's works you thought, From work of arts are too short, Real things to be ashamed. You asked me for good verses, A real ode maybe, A great work of poetry, Not another thing of mess. Inspired by the break, The light started to blink, My mind think and think, To prevent my heart to ache. But it's so difficult, Then tears of failure fall, From the windows of my soul, For I'll get another insult.
