Small World of Words

I placed a kiss In both of my palms Closed my fist tight, And open my hands To the wind. So, perhaps someday You’ll be walking in the park; Or down the street, Or sitting quietly reading, When you’ll lift your head And suddenly think of me; Seemingly Out of the blue… But it’ll be because, Those kisses Finally found Their way To you…

How can I find love? Can I find it in the library? In the books that I read? Or in the mall; On the material things I bought? Or on the gifts that I received; During yuletide? Questions that I wanted some answers. I felt empty; wasted. How can I find the affection? I’ve been longing for years. I felt cold; numb. How can I find the thing; That is invisible? I felt ravage; frustrated. How can I find love; When it’s nowhere to be found? I felt left-out; neglected. But when I hold my hand, Close my eyes, Talk to Him; heartily. I felt enlighten; acquainted. And then I found the answer. I found love; I found myself. He is always with me I felt warm; satisfied. Because of his love and grace.

Filipino people love to celebrate. Apart from Christmas, Birthdays, New Year, Weddings, Festivals and Anniversaries; Filipinos also celebrate some special and random occasions. Like a celebration after the house was blessed, celebration after a baby’s christening, Mother’s day and Father’s day celebration and celebration after a successful event; (thanksgiving kumbaga) like passing an exam, getting high grades, promotions and a graduation celebration. The celebration of the event that took place last April 5 happened last April 9 four days after the most memorable day of my life happen. I can say that it was worth it; maybe this will be our last excursion before we bid our adieu. We usually hangout and have fun after some mind boggling event like what happen on the 5 th day of April, but this one is different. I am so glad that we have the chance to spend some quality time with each other before we part ways....

I don’t know how to start this post; I just can’t find the right words to start with. But let me just tell you this: April 5, 2017; one of the MOST MEMORABLE day of my life. It is just that April 5 is the day that my life as a student will end and also, the start of something anew. Our commencement exercise was held in our university’s covert court last April 5, 2017. The program starts early in the morning at around 7 o’clock. It started with a mass which starts at around 7:30 and then followed by the candidates singing the tribute to parent’s song entitled “Through the Years” sung by the American country music artist; Kenny Rogers. After that, it was followed by the Hooding Ceremony and the program proper; where each candidates was one by one called to go up the stage and receive the “Diploma Holder” (without the real diploma). As the days passed by; it feels kind of weird; now that I’m done with some school stuff; that the next thing that I wil...

How do I get here? Lost in the situation that I can’t bear How can I get out of here? Slowly; quietly. Please just answer my prayer! To the person who is dear to me; Listen please, I will say to thee. I am so tired with this. I just wanted to experience an unending bliss. Please! Save me! Listen please, let me say this to thee; Please, help me get through this; I have been in a place amiss. I can still recall the day that I first set; I never thought that one day I will regret. When do you think this pain will end? When do you think they will apprehend? I try to decode the situation that I am in; And I found out that my chance of fitting in is very thin. I just wanted to end this agony; And experience the much wanted glee.
