Catch me I’m fallin’

What is this I’m feeling I just can’t explain… When you call it feels not the same… I tried to hide it.. try not to show it.. it’s crazy… how could this be…… I’m falling for you.. finally my heart give in and I’m falling in love… I finally know how it’s been.. so this is love.. 😉

Ask me not

Don’t ask the sun to always shine;
It can’t! The night exists.
Don’t ask the stars to always glitter;
They can’t! The clouds exist.

Don’t ask the sea not to be rough;
It can’t! For the wind blows.
Don’t ask for spring always;
The winter awaits to unfold.

Don’t ask the birds to always fly;
They can’t! For they need rest.
Don’t ask the beautiful flowers not to wither;
They can’t! The others should bloom.

And don’t ask me not to fall in love;
I can’t! Because YOU exist!

The Spell

It was a gloomy Monday evening
When you find me looking for a refuge.
I feel my adrenalin rushing
Something odd and strange struggles to get through
From the depth of my soul
As I go with you.

Things happen so swiftly
just like a flash of a lightning.
So quick; so intense.
That strikes me from deep within

Then there was a magical moment
I was in a deep trance
As I was under
your hypnotic spell.

I was deeply mesmerized
When I caught myself
finds its solace In you loving arms.
Your smooth palm caresses me.

I stare at your gleaming eyes
As if they wanted to speak
the unspeakable words of love.
the spell intensifies.

I thought the spell will cease
sooner or later.
But I was fervently wrong.
For it gets a whole lot stronger.
hundred folds of that of Samson

The spell…..
That makes me fall in love….

Twilight

I sat in an uneven boulder
My feet gently soaked
in its pristine waters.
The breeze
Making its crystal clear
Waters to splash
Soothing me
With much tranquility
I enjoyed watching
As beautifully colored
fishes doing their tricks.
Then I noticed
The ebb getting weaker.
Reaching the shoreline
No more.
Exposing the watery
sand craving
to see the sunlight
But the sun had just
Set in the west
“twas twilight.

A friend

This poem is inspired by my Chemistry teacher way back in High School at Dr. Vicente F. Gustilo Memorial National High School, Cadiz City, Negros Occidental. She used to hate me when I was a junior student. She hated me because I can exceed her challenges and she can never accept it. Time changed and we started to be in good terms when I reached senior. That time, we developed a strong friendship when we got to work together not only inside the classroom but with the extra curricular activities too. In fact she used to be my council coach. Hence, the deeper friendship. Now she is based in Texas, USA  as a teacher. Miss Maricel Terre, this once for you…..

If there is someone whom I should thank to
I won’t have any doubt to say that is you
For you have made me
A worthy person that I dreamed to be.

You discouraged me to do better
Because you thought they are brigther.
You’ve cause me so much pain,
Up to the point that I want to get insane.

But event changes so abruptly
That I can’t believe, now you are a close friend of mine
I can’t think of a reason
Even with the passage of four seasons.

Only now I knew,
Why you’ve done such foolish things that hurt me so.
Just because you wanted me to be anew,
And me it easy to reach my dreams that I aspire to.

A Pill

I gobble a bottle
of concoction.
Poured a little of its
content into a
crytal-clear goblet.
Add several melting ice cubes
while waiting for a
moment ’til a
morning dew hovers it.
I reach for a stick
and lit it.
I puff the lighted stick
while i get hold of the goblet.
I gulp and slurp greedily
’til its last drop.
Then my thirst is quenched
As I succumb to sleep….
