Alone

How dark the days are
When one is alone
Time is so cruel
To those who are parted
With every second that ticks
'Tis my heart it wounds and pricks
This emptiness that I feel
Nothing and no one else can fill
I face each morning
Half-alive so full of yearning
Everyday I say prayers for you
Blowing you kisses, surely, that I also do
Halfway 'round the world
I send you my untiring love
The kind I want you so much to have
A message I softly whisper
For the wind to bring you thither
Until then I'll always be here
Longing, wishing and waiting.

Heart And Mind

The Mind said, "Life is for living."
The Heart said, "Life is for loving."
The Mind is visualising,
The Heart is dreaming;
The Mind has reasons,
The Heart has emotions;
The Mind thinks,
The Heart feels;
The Mind lies,
The Heart never does.

Ang Pagtatapat Ni Ycoy

Puso’t isipa’y may nais malaman
Tanong ko ay ano nga bang talaga,
Ang para sa akin ay iyong nadarama
Kaibigan lang ba o may pagsintang kasama?
Pag ika’y kausap, araw ko ay kay ganda
Ngunit pag sayo’y nawalay na
Parang mundo’y walang kwenta.
Kulang na lang oras ay hatakin
Upang ikaw ay muling makapiling
Dinadaan ang lahat sa biruang usapan
Na dulot naman sa iyo’y simpleng kasiyahan
Hindi nga ba’t sa biro ko rin lang ipinaalam
Ang damdaming pilitin man ay di mapigilan.
Nito lamang huli sa iyo ay buong tapang
Ibinulaslas ang tunay na pagsinta
Aking ipinarating at sinabi ng tapat
Na pagpapahalaga sa iyo
Higit pa sa kaibigan lamang.
Subalit di naman nabigo
Nang iyong sagutin
Ang rebelasyong akala
Sa hangin ay nahumaling
Iyong kataga, tayo’y maghunos dili
Sa pagmamadali baka tayo magkamali.
Aking nirespeto ang iyong ninais
Sana’y iyo rin palampasin
Ang aking pagiging mabilis.
Muli't muli'y aking sasambitin
Pagmamahal sa iyo'y kusang binigay
Walang kapalit na ako'y hinihintay
Sapat na ang ika’y nakilala
Puso ko’y nabigyan mo ng buhay at saya
Maituturing na ngang isang biyaya
Kung pagkatapos ng lahat
Sa puso mo, ako rin pala ay namayagpag.

Would You?

The moon is bright and stars glimmer the skies I'm wide awake and yet I'm dreaming What would it be if you are here with me The wind is blowing and my body is shivering Wandering and lost in reverie How would it feel if I can hold you near Would you come and search for me To give your love and to be with me To the heavens I want to take you Would you trust me and allow me to And if you say you will, My heart will never stay still

To Blog Or Not To Blog?

Blogging nowadays is more than just having a personal weblog wherein you can publish your day to day experiences, your rants and raves, your passion, what's gotten into you and what have you. It's more than just having a journal. Blogs can now be considered a powerful tool in spreading your ideas and become an influential tool in shaping the mindset of some readers. I've visited some blogs that are like that. Through blogging, you can be a part of a community that shares your thoughts, interests, and those that shares your ideology or principles. You can even have a discussion with someone who happens to drop by your article and commented something about it. It's like being in a message board, only this time the venue is yours. There's no certain rule or limitation on what to write about,in the first place, it's not about who reads but who writes. Though there are limitless topics, I can say that it's also difficult to choose one. Composing is a different matter. Blogs are a collection of the author's written thoughts, ideas and experiences. It is the person itself in words. Wanna know or wanna dig deeper into a person's psyche? Try searching his blogs. For in every article that that person writes, he is revealing something about him. Now, am I up to it? This new adventure might turn out to be fun for I, myself, would soon be discovering things about me that I didn't know before.
