Kulog at Kidlat
Kumukulog at kumikidlat Ito ba ay isang simbolo ng pag umpisa?Maaaring maipagkakailaPero bakit parang ako’y dapat pang bigyan ng gantimpala Ang pag-ibig ay isang hiling na matagal nang itinatanggiMaaaring matagal Niya nang gustong ibahagiNgunit sadyang ibinabalin ang tingin Sa ngayon, ang aking tingin— Ito’y sanhi ng pagkawala ng aking kapayapaan Ibalin man ang tinginAy pupuslit…

Dear Midnight Rain, You Don’t Have To Give Up On Love
It’s exactly 5:01 am when I decided to write about this topic. While listening to Midnight Rain by Taylor Swift, I feel the words she had sung, as they envelop my very being. I am Midnight Rain and at some point in time, I’ve given up on love because to me, there were better things…

I start with these blank pages, hoping I could talk some sense into you. I will not push you away any more. Nor question you why you’ve fallen for me. I do not have any ulterior motives. I wanted to bring clarity and tell you what I need. I am not a mind reader. Although…

Stop Bleeding on His Promises: How to Receive God’s Blessings
It’s nearing midnight and I find myself pleasantly stuck with what a pastor said on a video sermon.

It’s coldI stare into the abyss‘So very bold— of me to share about You When I’m full of questionsDownright into contemplation— of why things have not happened yet I’m coldAm I using the right toneDo my words cut right through the bone? I’ve been talking and talkingBack to hoping — that there must be an…

foreshadowed
We pretend to not want what we wantIn order to protect ourselves — just in case we won’t have it Only to sabotage what was really for us— To end up having to have foreshadowed what shouldn’t have been Any form of reservation Was actually realized self-preservationAnd she had to go through this realizationTo finally…

I wish I knew how to keep you
