Of Poem...This Feeling Of Love

This Feeling Of Love

Feeling something unusual.....
Thrill of happiness
upon a glimpse of her.
Sense of longing in her absence.
Chill of uneasiness in her presence.
Should this be ignored?

Making a significant difference.....
Easily magnetizing
my eyes and attention.
Constantly preoccupying my mind.
She has taken a spot in my heart.
Should this be denied?

Accepting without denial.....
Experiences with her
are of great delight.
Turning me head over heels.
These feelings and change are genuine and mine.
How long can I keep this?

Still asking.....
What brought me
into this sphere?
Why get a mirror of myself through her person?
How did she lead me to all this questioning?
Do I have answers to these?

Considering the need.....
To tell honestly
how I feel about her.
To let her know her importance to me.
To let her feel my care for her.
Do I have the guts?

Being challenged.....
To overcome my fear
of being known.
To take off my masks of coldness and aloofness.
To invest myself without counting the cost.
Would I dare?

This one was written by my bro...good one...I supposed :)

Of Poetry...My One Star


My One Star

One night I looked at the sky

But failed to find even a single star

This made me wonder why

Are they just hiding somewhere from afar?

I pondered deeply on what I saw

Which made me doubt some things I know.

I thought there are millions of them to see

If that is true, where could they be?

My tears fell down, and my heart was shattered,

As if to say, that stars really matters.

Why is it that now I’m down

The stars that I count most, was nowhere to be found.

As I turn around and bow my head

I remember the fox on what he said;

One must not look using the naked eye

Instead he must see, using his heart.

Once again, I looked at the sky,

This time, using not my naked eye.

Beyond those clouds I saw the million of stars

Smiling gently and brightly not from afar.



I've written this poem with "The Little Prince" as my inspiration.....I've had the first four lines on my mind for more than a year, but had a hard time "composing" the succeeding lines.....and, "lonely" one night, I've FINALLY "put the pieces together".....

Of Poetry...I Miss You 2 (Too)


I Miss You 2 (Too)


When it rains it pours, so as they say
Maybe that’s the reason why – you too – went away
You broke my heart in two
But when you go, you took both of them with you…

As the sun goes down and say goodbye
Tears fell down in my teary eyes,
The raindrops fell to greet the night,
Darkness came and killed the light.

I know your love won’t be forever
And when you looked at me, I know it’s over
Your love and care that used to inspire me,
Is now all gone, turned into painful memory.

How I wish this night would be much shorter,
And that the sunlight will remain forever,
How I wish a smile would brighten my day
For that, I’ll look forward to live another day.


After that very first poem I wrote - I thought - I'll not be able to write again another one.....I broke up with my gf (at that time)...and a few years after that, I just found myself writing this poem...with my past experiences as my "inspiration" for this one.....

Of Poetry...I Miss You...


I Miss You
I am writing this letter
As the silence of the night witness the heaven crying.
Silence which was killed by the rain falling,
And left me...alone and bleeding.

As I try to look back at the past,
I still can't make any sense from it.
Why promise a love that will last?
And then, suddenly...stabbed my heart very deep?

Seems like forever is already gone,
but the memory remains on what's been done.
The pain it brought me is no longer there,
but the scar it left, will remain forever.

Every single second, it's her on my thoughts.
Every night in my dreams, it's her face that I sought.
If only for a second I can be with her again,
A decade of pain is what I'm willing to bargain.

I missed her touch which makes me feel important.
I missed her kiss which tells me it is me she want.
I have tried to turn back the time
But, it's too late...she's already gone.

And now, as I finish this letter,
The rain ceased, and the smiling sun greets the flowers blooming.
The church bell starts to ring.
And the choirs of heaven starts to sing.

I never thought I'll meet you.
Much more, fall in love with you.
Maybe, it's because you've turned failure and disappointment into hope,
Or maybe, it's because of the smile and laughter which you brought.
Well, whatever it is...I don't know.

All I know is that, like the moon and the stars you are that far.
But, isn't it we can only see rightly within our hearts?
That's is why, no matter what, no matter how long,
I'll wait for your love, and pray nothing will go wrong.

The very first poem I've written...maybe it's not as good and poetic as other poems, but I liked it...and I'm "proud" of it....

Of Rain...

Heavy rains (and wind) pour out yesterday...too bad, many areas were affected.....But when nature pour our its anger, there's nothing much you can do about it (except, to be always prepared).....So, all you can do is look at the bright/positive side...It's nice to sleep when it's cold!...if you are in love, you'll be imagining that you're hugging the one you love...if you're missing someone, then, all you can do is sleep, and hope that you'll see (or hear from her/him) her/him when you wake up!!! ...'Hope you're ok...

Of Song....."Want You To Cry"...




Another "heart-shattering" song...very sad song indeed!.....Breaking up is really hard...very hard...But, it's even more painful when you see the one who leaves seems to be "OK" with it...It is - as if - she/he doesn't give a damn about your relationship...the time that you've spent with each other...and everything.....Of course - when you love - you must not expect anything in return...and - at the same time - when the one you love wants to be "free", you must set her/him free.....But then, again, it'll take away even just a little pain, when you see her/him "cry" and be sad about leaving you.....Instead of just telling you that she/he doesn't love you anymore, without the feeling of even just a bit of remorse.....

Of Love...


Simple, yet complicated…easy, but hard to understand…Can bring laughter and smile, but also brings unbearable pain most of the times…...

I remember the times when I used to fall in love, but ending up breaking my heart (or my gf’s heart)…I keep on telling myself, “I’ll never fall in love again”…”Funny” but, as time goes by, I’ll forget the pain…and I’ll love again…and then, in the end, I feel like banging my head on the wall and say to myself, “sabi ko na sayo eh”…hahaha…..

However, it’s good to be in love…You just have to keep your fingers crossed, that it’ll not end in pain…but - even if it does – someday, you’ll realized that – no matter how painful it ended – it added colors to your life….
