Cold And Mist
I look outside and I can barely see
Everything is blurry, what could this be
My head start to spin, oh, this morning chill
How can I do this when I’m feeling ill
Embrace the cold, look into the mist
But something’s pulling me, I can’t resist
One step at a time, please let me go
With all my strength, I can face this snow
Slowly, slowly, I am emerging
From this dark clouds of my own doing
I will…

My Battle
photo credit to md-arts.deviantart.com
Running as fast as I could until there’s a place to hide
Go to the darkest spot until I can never be found
But it is catching up so fast, as if it has a guide
Now it’s on me, and I suddenly fell into the ground
Helpless, motionless, I don’t have strength, I cannot resist
I feel so small, this thing is just towering over me
Baseless thoughts and fears, used…

Whatever!
My head is not in it
Worse, my heart doesn’t care
I just want to wing it
Just take what I can bear
Who knows what the future is
I could be wherever
As long as I have peace
I’ll be fine, whatever!
I’ll flow with the water
I’ll ignore the noises
There’s nothing else matters
Aside from my voices

Clipped Wings
Stuck in the twigs of my own nest
I thought it’s where I’d lay to rest
I’ve accepted this reality
But no! This is not eternity
I resisted with all my might
I flipped, I flapped, just hold on tight
I would pull through, just wait and see
I’d be victorious, I’d be free
From a gentle dove to an eagle
I will rise without a hassle
Soar high from the sorrow and pain
With grit, I will soon fly again

Maybe
The more you expect, the more painful it gets
Sometimes I don’t know if I am full of regrets
Maybe it’s because of the stress and frustrations
More than 6 months now and I still don’t have directions
Oftentimes I pray for acceptance and clarity
But my mind can no longer stand this insanity
I tried to be patient, be more optimistic
But all my prayers seem so unrealistic
I am dragged down to the…

Blurred Numbers
photo obtained from this site: http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-mtvVnfJ8k6U/T-l34MKv88I/AAAAAAAAA4U/IK8ItiWFGtU/s1600/sleepy.gif
Now, all I see are blurred numbers
What’s that? I cannot remember
Things are meaningless, useless
Why am I again in this mess?
Wake up! I have got to hustle
I need to flex these brain muscles
But this tiredness, oh, it’s killing me
Just give me my fifth cup of coffee
Dragging…

A Memory
photo credit to encorenow.wordpress.com
A fragment in my memory is an image of you
An illusion of some sort that is actually not true
Buried in my subconscious but emerges in a dream
An alternate past but it is not really what it may seem
I still remember those years wondering, asking many why’s
Someday is here, it is now and there is no more disguise
I found my answers, you and I, we are not…

When Darkness Comes
photo credit to pinterest.com
I blend with darkness, night is my day
My senses are alerted, time to play
This blackness gives me grit and power
Moonless or not, I’m here to devour
Your scent lingers, leading me to you
I can feel your anguish, hey, that’s my cue
I will find you until I’m satisfied
This thirst, this hunger, I’m amplified
Now here we are, you have nowhere to go
Give in to me and…

Words
photo credit to masonashley.com
I want to paint the world with words
Put a melody, sing with chords
Explore the beauty and magic
Have harmony with the music
I want the words to simply flow
No hindrance, not even a woe
Dance with the lines that says it all
It is a cleansing to my soul
I want the words to absorb me
Be one until I’m fully free
Live this dream to bring back the fire
Express phrases…

The Story Of 2023
Writer’s note: I started writing a wrap up of my year in 2012 or 2013, so here goes…
Let’s start with something less personal, my work…
I started 2023 with a new role, a new team
Slow at first but turned into a roller coaster in a whim
It’s ending with changes, look forward to a new leadership
A refresh with renewed focus, I am embracing this trip
So what about my age?
This year I turned forty,…

Christmas 2023
Writer’s Note: This is a late Christmas post. I was inspired by my 5 yr old the other day when she started singing her own song. The first 2 lines were from her but instead of tonight, I changed it to morning to rhyme. She also talked about 3 kings, hence the lines about them.
Light up the candles, Jesus was born
In a stable in one winter morn
Angels rejoiced, singing joyfully
Joseph and Mary…

No Line
photo credit to curnblog.com
I have no thoughts, I can’t think of a line
Sometimes I feel I am in decline
So I pause and I try to take a break
Maybe it would end my losing streak
With words and phrases, I try to immerse
Hoping I would find an amazing verse
But all I can gain is just nothing
Except for this, you see I am struggling
So where did all the ideas go?
How can I catch them all with my…

Not seeing you each day feels like it’s closer to end
Please tell me what happened and I wish to amend
I tried to better myself but to no avail
If we are not destined then love would never prevail
I tell myself to let go of things I can’t control
But the voices in my head tell me I am not whole
Maybe I was to blame for giving myself and all
I am descending and you’re not here to catch my fall

The Bud
A bud patiently waiting for spring
Braving the cold, just hibernating
It will blossom to something beautiful
Rising from the ice, numb but powerful
Now a flower standing tall and strong
Looks fragile but it defies all wrong
Yes, it can be uprooted by a storm
But it will resist, it will not conform
Now bruised but it’s stronger than ever
Ready to face the coming winter
No, it will not wither, it…

My Promise
Writer’s note: This is a poem and also meant to be a song but it has no clear melody. This is written for my daughter.
From the moment I saw you, I already knew
I would love you forever, oh, you have no clue
But even ’til now, I still don’t know what to do
All I know for sure is this I can promise you…
Chorus:
I will wrap my arms around you when you are cold
I will always be beside you even when…

Into Nothingness / Sa Kawalan
Writer’s note: this is from an ancient Filipino alphabet, Alibata. It means “kawalan” or nothingness in English. Here goes…
I want to journey into nothingness
Find the fire, the spark amidst this madness
Breathing a new life, giving a meaning
To this mind and heart that’s been hibernating
I will float and drift into nothingness
Then flow with the current of the endless
Taking away all my doubts…
