BANTAY

Bantay, bantay
buti ka pa
kapag tinawag
pumaparini kaagad.

Itong si totoy,
talagang ulol,
nakita kana
ayaw pang gumaya.


 

LIBRO

Nakatihaya,
umaanyaya.

Nagpapabasa,
humahasa.

Nagtuturo,
kung magpapaturo.

Ngunit pumapatay,
sa di mapagnilay.

Alone


I’m alone.
Caught by the
dreadful
silence.
The moon is blue.
The stars corroded.
The night freezes my body.
I’m dying.
I’m lost.
I’m with the wind.
It leads me nowhere.
I scream but no one hears.
I cry but no one knows.
Now as lief as I could,
I’ll go back to earth.
Offer my spirit to eternity,
and my soul to judgment.
I’m with them.
but still I’m alone

Tears


There are many kinds of tears
to cry some
of them is my greatest fear.
Mommy keeps on telling me to cry when I am hurt.
For her it’s the only way to release the pain.

But daddy is different he doesn’t want me to cry,
I never see him crying and I don’t know why.

My teacher told me that tears are precious,
they remove the stain of pain and anxious

I already saw a lot of people crying:
a baby crying for a milk;
young boy asking a penny;
broken hearted lad and spinster;
parents who failed their marriage.

I saw them crying,
I saw their tears,
my compassion foments
and I cry too.
Why?
I don’t know why?
All I know I can feel
every single 
drop of them.
And I believe 
they are
worth
shedding.

Claire de Lune


A music of silence
where love abides,
Stars are singing
as the moonlight beats.

Wind hovers
on the drowsy field,
Peace has filled
this world of dimmed.

Eyes on the face of a dazzling moon,
of an open window where dreams come true,
of an open heart that love invades,
of a broad smile that welcomes peace,
of an open home where forgiveness dwell,
and a willing heart where rue was form.

Earth has fell in a deep sleep,
and full moon has a breathless peace.

Dare to wish,
dare to achieve,
under the moonlight
where peaceful air blows.

the HYPOCRITE

i BET
your soul is trash,
dressed like
a clown's mascot
that hides
a
DREADFUL FACE.
