365 Days

Image
I am on the other side of the world A thousand miles away from home Spending time in the land of the unknown And I can’t wait to return home. 365 days of sacrifices and independence, It took 12 months to stretch my patience The weeks felt like long as ever The day has come, and I couldn’t be happier I am flying tonight from a thousand miles Like doves to return where they have their lives To the land I long to return though it is not for long 365 days are gone, and I will never be alone.

All I want from you

Image
By: Sir N.E.B . I never wanted a golden cup nor bars of gold. I never wanted linen clothes in an exquisite fold. I never wanted a lavish food nor expensive wines. I just wanted to have what life defines. I never wanted an expensive car nor traveling afar. I never wanted those diamonds nor silvers in the altar. I never dreamed to live in a mansion nor a palace. I just wanted one thing in life that will absolutely last. I never asked for anything effusive if it means less a life. I never want to have anything more than what is enough. I wanted to be the one you choose, and you miss. I wanted to be the one you hug and kiss. Those things that glitter are nothing but dust They may shine but it will never last. For what is good and glorious are the ones we can’t see. But it is the one that we always feel and carry. I want you to want me. I want your undying attention. I want you to hold me with no exception. I want you to be with me, ask

The Undying Love of an Abandoned Man

Image
When the horizon comes in low vision And a sadden thought comes alone That seems to be a constant reminder Of the truth and that love I can’t own. Oh, how I wish I could turn back time When your love is pure as honey and lime When I could smell your sweet perfume When I could touch you and feel I’m home. Now that He stole you away from me I buried my heart no one can see. I poured all my affections in the box of memory And resided it into the deepest sea. I am not without you, my love and sweet As I now see the world in pure black and gray I long for you and in a poignant way That my hope and dreams slowly die every day. I know everything happens for a reason But why is it that the pure love has to be played? Fate it is that never fails to manipulate And now it is fate that I always hate. I want you back, I want you here in my arms For I miss your warmth and our happy times If God will allow a fleeting turn I want you an

Young Man from a Lone Mountain

Image
A strong young man from the northern land came to the east He has all his wealth and all his health put into risk He has a big heart, many has known him, he never been gone into a fist But this time, he will wrestle with fate with chains in both his wrist. A strong young man from the northern land is strong and just All he does all the day is to work his brain out in the dust He will carry his joy and all his pain while he works if he must But sometimes all he needed was none, except his family's trust. Now he works not for his dreams, but for others to live Now he works not for his life, but for others' dreams He has none now, all exhausted, all tired, he has less to give, But it doesn't mean he has to stop, although his soul loudly screams. Never stop young man, I know life is unfair The end of the tunnel is nowhere yet, but I know there is a lair Rest if you must, but never quit, cause I know it's just in the air Time will come, we will be in th

I want to stop

Image
I guess it is time to tell myself to stop It is the only way to move forward Even though it hurts so bad, Because this is what I know I never had. Stop is the only word I know that can help To ease the pain and continue living It is the only word that can help To mend this broken heart and keep. I want to stop because I always hope. I want to stop because I always seek. I always expect and the feeling I share. I want to stop because you don’t care. Maybe you’re too good for me to handle You are wonderful but you seemed don’t care. I hate myself because I dream of you and me I want to stop because it is a thing you don’t feel and see. It hurts so bad. It hurts I know and I wanted to stop.

Words for Mamma from a 28 Year old me

Image
Dear Mamma: How are you? I hope all is well with you. You know, I did not have any more to say until I realize that I am already 28 years old. I realized that I am not getting any younger and so, are you. Growing up, we shared so many things together. In fact, you don’t share most of the time but you give your all to your children. I remember the days when I was just a kid. Those days were full of happiness, at least according to what I saw and feel. You were the joy in our home and you cooked the most delicious meals. You sewed my torn clothes and papa’s. I was looking forward every Sundays because I could finally taste the bread you brought home from the market. During bedtime, you tell timeless tales that you and granny went through in life when you were a kid and that meant an inspiration to me, even up until now. Those were the days and I miss it! I became a teenager, and everything was completely different. We had a lot of arguments and misunderstandings. I was qu

The kind of Love I have for you

Image
The sun’s about to bid goodbye But my memory’s a sun that arises I can see you in my dreams clearly The memory of you and me. Your voice is a music to my ears, The cool breeze that touches my cheeks. Your smile is a sunshine to my eyes That warms the inners of my soul. Your grin that brings joy to my day, The very grin that delights my heart. Your lips that speak of gold And of the silver truth. I need not tell you this today No purpose it may seem to you In air I wrote, gone, and fly. But in my heart, the memory I keep. For the heart always knows what mind can’t contain. It goes deep, it roots, and it sticks. Wherever I go, I will carry you Even when my days and times are through.

A lesson to Learn

Image
When love overflows, anger diminishes. When hate bursts, ugly words deluge. When you have nothing good to say, Zip your lips, or talk to your hands. Recognize your anger, know your emotions, But never talk when blood rushes up. Never take a step when you’re feeling hot Or you will see yourself down the pit. Take a step back, and think of beautiful things. Let a tear drops when it needs. When there is a feeling of a gritted teeth Know that you are better than the best. Feel good about yourself and talk with an intellect. Make a good day last and never allow hate. Always remember one of the many important things, “When love overflows, anger diminishes.”

A note

Image
When I look back at the steps in Maslow’s Hierarchy, I am glad that I get to wear decent clothes, I have food on the table, and a nice sharing room with my cousins, and for that, I am truly blessed. I get to send money to my family back home and that is fulfilling. I am happy with what I do. I believe that I could make a difference in people’s lives since I am working in Human Resources. I have a good experience talking to people who want to get a higher step in their career and I enjoy it so much that I feel I am not working at all. I get to recruit candidates and place them into the right opportunity. I also experienced training our employees on their soft skills that for me, is one of the best feelings. Working in the training and development means a lot as I feel like I am part of the people’s development and career advancement. Self-actualization is what we always aim for. That’s the part when we want nothing but to extend a helping hand to others and be happy tha

I have Questions

Image
There are many questions I need to ask And there’s a lot I need to keep Those questions run a hundred miles marathon, Of which I couldn’t keep. Let me start with “why,” as it requires a reason. Why does life have to be difficult in all functions? Why do people have to be cruel and outrageous? Has it been the way God designed this world? With so much hate and envy, and greed this world has, Who am I gonna turn to in times of trouble? Who are we supposed to lend a hand and trust? Who can we still call friends without reservations? What does life in store for us with all these uncertainties? What relationships do we have with people around? What kind of happiness do people look and see What definition can we give in the word humanity?

Dear God

Dear God, I want to be rich. I want to be like other people Living in comfortable houses With terrace and balcony And fancy lamps all over fences. Dear God, I want to be rich I want to buy all gadgets and device I will go around malls buying and shopping At the end of the day I will ride my own Hyundai Tucson as I go around the town. Dear God, I want to be rich, I want my parents to experience the fruit of their sacrifices You see how difficult their lives were So they deserve a vacation somewhere. Dear God, I want to setup schools, I will be the head master and a teacher I will teach kids how to be rich And how to be blessed And how to thank God for blessings. Dear God... I know that I am rich. Deep in your love I dive and enjoy In the cares of my parents In the warm smiles of my true friends. Dear God, I want to be rich So I can also make others rich.
