RANDOM #123

“Idle hands are the devil’s workshop.”

glued at the mobile screen
with fingers on the keyboard
there’s nothing to do right now
something must be explored
the urge within is tempting
your emotion’s out of control
rationality is now a burden
iniquity takes over your soul

it takes only an attempt
to keep moving further ahead
it’s seemed harmless at first
you’re playing with fire instead
you gave in to a subtle trap
when you open a tiny space
the sight is so appealing but
you’re now falling from grace

IDLIP

mga mata ay ipikit
at ipahinga ang isip
alisin ang antok
sa sandaling pag-idlip

diwa ay hayaang
maglakbay sa kawalan
manahimik sandali
sa gitna ng kadiliman

iwaksi ang ingay
iwan ang liwanag
kung kinakailangan
katawan ay ilatag

kung sakaling kulang
ang ginhawang hatid
hayaang iduyan ka
ng iyong panaginip
