valentines

our tomorrow is uncertain, shrouded in shadow and full of fears. and if that thing we truly fear should come to pass with the coming of tomorrow's dawn, then i would rather spend what's left of today in the comfort of your company... before i sleep, forever, in the ecstasy of your embrace.

elections

it's not about who's the most intelligent nor who's the most charming. it's not about a pretty face nor a promise given. it's not about what they want nor what they think we want.

it's about what they truly believe in and what they stand for. it's about sacrifice and service, commitment and collaboration. it's about the sanctity of our choice and the dream of a better tomorrow.

space-time

cofee break>
when was the last time you had an appointment with space?
the last time you thought of yourself as an entity desperately needing your own time, too?


space and time are concepts
that have lost their meaning.

my space is cramped
with people i have forgotten
and people i need to forget
and my time trickles through today,
like sand in an hour glass,
between yesterday and tomorrow.

middle-earth

sometimes, i want to hold your hand and bring you somewhere... to a place where the sea kisses the shore or where the clouds caress the hilltops... or bring you somewhen, to a time when you still would have gone and when love still promised us a tomorrow.

winged unicorn

sometimes
patronuses
need to be summoned.
because at times,
the darkness
overwhelms
even the light and hope and love we bring
and we become
nothing
but shreds and strands of silver smoke
floating in the foul and fetid frosty air...

failure

frodo baggins' greatest and most telling test didn't lie in his acceptance of the perilous quest to mordor. in the end, it all came down to the casting of the one ring into the fires of mt. doom. he failed that test. miserably.

pasko

samwise>
parang kailan lang magkasama at magkayakap tayo sa pasko. hindi ba sinabi mo na walang iwanan? saan ka ngayon? saan?


ang pangako ay bulang naglalaho sa pag-ihip ng hangin... at ang samahan ay panaginip na hindi na kayang balikan.

gumising. unawain. tanggapin.

hindi lahat ng pasko ay maligaya;
at ang bagong taon ay hindi nagdadala ng pag-asa.
