Handprints on my glass

Lose my footing and gliding, Lose my balance and slithering, Whimpering with unstoppable and uncontrollable weep, Tripping on the floor, colliding with a wall, Slip and slide for the grandest fall. Begging for love while tears unhide, Little by little I'm dying inside, Dreams shattered like trees shed their leaves in autumn Do I fear or love Death? Still thinking till my last breath. Destiny is Fate, Fate is Destiny, Life without Love is truly empty, Slip and slide into your mind down to your heart, Wishing to hold my hand, be by my side, Love me, keep me safe in this deadly ride.

The memories would soon dry up And the heartbeats would leave you too The brightest days would be capped by saddest truth and darkest hue. Sometimes crying is essential To do away from painful sorrow All those laughters are immaterial When your loved one will leave tomorrow. You remembered her tiny kick From her lovely mother’s soft tummy You remembered her cries when she’s sick You remembered her little kiss, a young lady. There will be always a prince In a tale, for a lovely princess She will be soon convinced To settle down, wear a wedding dress. A very sorrowful moment for a father With a huge prayer, sometimes asking why That you would love her more, better That will lead to a Daddy’s cry: “Secure her as she would stay forever Hug her while she's young , day by day, As you would only, simply stare to her When she’d fall into other arms one day.”

Ang Buhay Estudyante Ala-sais ng umaga, napakalakas ng ulan na sinasabayan ng malakas na ihip ng hangin, madilim pa ang paligid at sa palagay ko ay walang pag-asang lumiwanag o sumilay man lang ang Haring Araw.  Binuksan ko ang telebisyon sa tindahan upang makasagap ng balita tungkol sa lagay ng panahon. “Kuya, pagbilhan nga po ng colored paper na kulay asul at pula, saka plastic envelope” sambit ng batang lalake na sa tingin ko ay nasa ikatlo o ikalawang grado pa lamang.   Tsinito ang bata na nagmukhang basang-sisiw dahil sa malakas na hampas ng ulan sa kanyang payong. “O bakit sumugod ka pa sa ulan? at hindi ka man lang hinatid ng iyong magulang, mukhang ide-declare na naman na walang pasok ngayong araw” ang sabi kong naaawa sa bata. Ngumiti ang bata sabay sagot na “ Kuya, wala na po akong nanay at tatay, yung lola ko naman nakaalis na rin po kasi nagtitinda siya sa Tulay, okay lang naman po kasi malapit lang naman ako sa eskuwelahan”.  “Pero pabili pa rin po nu...

In this world of hates and lies My serenity is your lullaby Songbirds sing gleefully Lovebirds wing peacefully Dancing shoes are designed for you and me Our souls will dance till eternity While the lovely spirits fly through sweet melody Of your lullaby In your arms, in your very arms will lie my love and my desire While the moon and stars Are the burning light and fire Of this lovely night While the angels smile and play the solemnly lyre And the God is lovingly staring and watching For the two free souls at last mingling.

Mapping on a child's mind With no boundaries at all And can see anything, anyone, beyond belief This place is more or less an island Where mermaid's lagoon just offshore. Situated on "second star to the right And straight on till morning" Metaphor for eternal childhood and escapism Can be reached only by flight But may try as well thru daydreaming. I fall out from the pram Not claimed by any in seven days Picked up by the fairy, flown to this land Fairies welcomed me by swarm While half-fishes combed their hair in a lazy way. Stars in the firmament are shining Watchful and beautiful But living sadly and in strange existence While the young ones are playful, believing Spread my arms to become wonderful. Through the lonely nights I see you In the nursery of broken dreams and hearts Wishing thru Air Castle to reach the arch of sky Flying above the sea of blue Curiousity over innocence, young heart sprouts. We will wander and wander over thi...

Sila ang mga kilalang American Heroes noong panahon ng Hapon na tumulong sa atin na makamit ang kalayaan. Mas naging popular pa nga sila kesa kay Gen. McArthur ngayon. Makikita natin sila sa halos lahat ng sinehan, business establishments at pati na rin sa paglilinis ng tahanan. Kung ang iba'y nagtatanong kung sila'y makapili ay 'hindi po', costumes po nila yan.  Kaya inidolo sila nila Shaider, Bioman at iba pang Japanese heroes. Sila ang nakahuli kay Gen. Yamashita, kaya lang sobrang tinik nito at dulas, kaya hindi nila mahawakan kaya nakatakas. Siya ang nagsabi ng "I shall return" upang balikan ang mga treasures na tinago nya sa mga gubat ng Pinas. Sa kasamaang palad siya ay namatay sa dengue sa Japan na nakuha niya nang makagat siya ng isang bading na lamok sa Mindoro. Balik tayo sa apat na heneral, napakagaling nilang umatake na parang sa COC (lagi silang 3 stars), marami silang napabagsak na tora-tora at maraming Hapon ang sumuko sa kanila. Si...

Staring in the dark sky, Waiting for the falling star, Wishing for the place, Where my old heart could lie. Tears falling like a diamond, Precious gem as this could be the last, I'll never cry again, Wished I did not cross the road. Sitting uneasy at the terrace's nook, With empty chair in my left, Coffee or wine doesn't matter, My soul is escaping from the hook. Playing it hard, pretending to be toughed, As the frowning face started to unmask, Bloods falling like a ruby from the sky, And my life is not enough...
