RANDOM #18

“Love begins by taking care of the closest ones – the ones at home.” Mother Teresa

a harsh reality,
things can't simply be undone

if I failed
as a father,
as a husband,
as a son

everything looks the same
there's nothing else new to see
something within is shattered
the mind is totally at sea

elbi

hinulma
ng kalikasan
ang bawat sulok
ng iyong kaanyuan

iginuhit
ng panahon
ang bawat hugis
ng iyong larawan

binuo
ng kasaysayan
ang bawat hibla
ng iyong kamalayan

bawat hakbang
alaalang di malilimutan

RANDOM #16

“Not all those who wander are lost.”
― J.R.R. Tolkien, The Fellowship of the Ring

overwhelmed by memories
my mind drifted back in time
when I plainly made a choice
to embark on an uphill climb 
it's been quite a while
since I've started off that hike
and here I am right now
realizing what it's really like

no apologies
no regrets for all those years
lessons were taught and learned
every time I shed my tears
nobody said it would be easy
but my faith can get me through
if I listen to His promptings
then I'll know what I should do

the future's still uncertain
so much are still at stake
more paths to discover
more choices to make
the journey's far from over
the peak's not yet in sight
more memories to save
more verses for me to write
