Elbi

June 1, 2006 / San Jose Occidental Mindoro

Nang ikaw ay matanaw

Ng aking mga matang malilinaw

Paghanga ang nadama

Pagnanasang makapiling ka

 

Si obleng hubad

Ang lorong sa pagsasalita’y babad

Samahan mo pa ng diwata ng kalikasan

Ayan at iyo ng tunghayan

 

Unibersidad na bantog

Panagalan mo’y nagpapalaki ng aking itlog

Aking pagkatao’y iyong hinubog

Kaya’t ako’y nagkaroon ng matibay na muog

 

Mga kaibiga’y sayo’y nakilala

Mga aral na nakatala

Sa puso’t isipan

Ng mga taong mahilig sa palaisipan

 

Pag-ibig ko sayo’y di magmamaliw

Karanaglang dala-dala’y ipagyayabang

Mga aral mo’y isasabuhay

Tagumpay ko sayo’y iaalay

Tao

June 1, 2006 / San Jose Occidental Mindoro

Nillalang na sadyang mahiwaga

Ikaw nga ang gumagawa ng iyong tadhana

Anu nga ba ang iyong saysay…

Sa mundong likas ng makulay?

 

Diyos ang lumikha sa’yo

Obrang kung tawagin ay tao

Buhay ay sadyang matarik

Daana’y talaga namang maputik

 

Marami kang puwedeng tahakin

Bagay na maaaring angkinin

Ngunit ito ba ang solusyon…

Sa tanong na iyong sinusuong?

 

Tumingin ka lamang sa taas

At tiyak kang maliligtas

Ang Diyos na lumikha sa’yo

Ang tanging dahilan ng buhay mo!

Kaibigan

June 1, 2006 / San Jose Occidental Mindoro

Nang ika’y makita

Di ko inakala

Pagsasama nati’y magtatagal

Hanggang sa ang mga tuhod ay mangatal

 

Akala ko ay ordinaryo ka lang

Kasama sa tawanan

Kaakbay sa galaan

Ngunit higit pa pala, ikaw ay aking KAIBIGAN!

 

Nang ako’y malungkot

Ikaw din ay umungkot

Sinamahan mo ako sa aking pagsimangot

Hanggang sa tayo’y tuamwa ng ika’y umutot

 

Tayo’y nagkahiwalay

Ngunit pagsasama’y di natanagay

‘pagkat kapit nati’y mahigpit

binuo ng pagsasamang sadyang malupit!

Night

26 May 2007 / San Jose Occidental Mindoro

As the darkness ends the day

Loneliness fills in to the weary

The stars will shine above

Reminds us of how great is love

 

The sky holds a promise

Told to us who often reminisce

The morning welcomes us with a kiss

And bring love with it on bliss

 

As the night falls and ends the day

There’s a hope that the sun will rise at the same bay

As the dawn awaits pardon

The moon will shine for a reason

Period!

May 21, 2006 / San Jose Occidental Mindoro

Period-a symbol that ends it all

All the pains and struggles

All the tears and challenges

All the love and care…

Roses have wilted

The wine have been spoiled

Many songs have been heard

Is this the time to bid the story’s end?

Our story was beautiful

But the pain it brought us was quite awful

I fought a fair fight

For you, I gave all my might

Still, I end up the looser

For the princess I fought for gave an austere

One which I regretted to hear

For it confirmed me of my greatest fear

The horns have sung long before

But I’m not prepared for my heart to sore

I don’t know if it will stay forevermore

` Can a period end it all?

Rainbow

May 14, 2006 / San Jose Occidental Mindoro

The sun is risen

The storm had passed

And the sky is brightly lit

By colors that perfectly fit

 

The colors of ROYGBIV

Has now made me believe

On life’s hope and faith

Which truly have changed my fate

 

I got soaked on rains

The winds have made me sway

I was struck by a lightning

Still I roar like a thunder

 

But that was over for now

For I am on a stage and taking a vow

Because the lightning lit my stage

And my audience, blown in the wind and cried in the rain

Storm

May 14, 2006 / San Jose Occidental Mindoro

Roofs have been blown

Homes have moaned

Trees already fell

And now the church cried the bell

 

Father is soaked

While mother’s with me on a cloak

I can feel our house swaying

To the strong winds that seem to have no ending

 

Still I sit here with ‘ma on the cloak

And ‘pa still standing like an old oak

Waiting for the storm to settle

And mend our home that was broken

Apart

May 5, 2006 / San Jose Occidental Mindoro

Lily’s have long been bloomed

Birds have flown unto the moon

Clouds have poured rain on tombs

But to see you is like waiting for doom

 

The lines have been rehearsed

The acts have long been practiced

But the songs have already faded

And the fear of your absence keeps me stranded

 

Wondering where can I see my daisy?

Whose fragrance have made me crazy

What odds should I have to face

in order for me to see your face?

 

Oh you know I love you my daisy

I’ll be standing here today,

And until that day when

The lilies forgot to bloom

Until the birds have fallen from the moon

Until the clouds have drained and dried the tombs

HOLD ON!
