People are we

-
After my sixth time reading your lines
A thought came to mind
People see things differently
And people are we,with opposite views towards love and life

People are we who breathes the same air
But the air we breathe are filtered
Sorted yet assorted
We choose sometimes to hold our breathes to escape from the reality that love is cruel and is suffocating

People are we who eats the same leaves
Swaying by the wind as if living along with the current
But most of us are hypocrites whop chose to join the flock of fools
We chose to be defeated by our emotions caused by heart
We let our mouths utter another dose of bullshit apologies and acceptance

Thinking that them [people we loved] will never do the breaking again
But we are wrong
We're hurting all over again
Because they did the same thing again

But,as always,people are we who pronounced the creed
At the front of the altar with a vow
And people are we and people MUST forgive
Because that's what love is--it always hurt

That's how I see love, indeed.
But the latter lines kept me shut into a sudden silence
Love is not just hurts and tears
Love is joy topped with fears

People are we with envious hearts
Immodest trait and self-gratifying will
But people are different--emphasizing my redundancy
What's with your optimism , young lad?

I guess the way we see people was just humane
I just did not took into the account that people are not just "the people"
People are not just "we"
People are they who sees us as "we"

We're of no difference
People are all of us--not just we
And we are not too hippie humans
Humans are fools
And I must say,"So are we"

A Fairy Song Analysis by William Shakespeare

A Fairy Song William Shakespeare Over hill, over dale, Thorough bush, thorough brier, Over park, over pale, Thorough flood, thorough fire! I do wander everywhere, Swifter than the moon's sphere; And I serve the Fairy Queen, To dew her orbs upon the green; The cowslips tall her pensioners be; In their gold coats spots you see; Those be rubies, fairy favours; In those freckles live their savours; I must go seek some dewdrops here, And hang a pearl in every cowslip's ear.

Liham mula kay Soledad para sa aking ika-18

Araw rin 'to ng mga mangagawa. Mayo Uno. Dapat, nasa lansangan tayo para makiisa sa pagtatanggal ng endo. Per Kulangot. Kahit kailan, hindi kita nirespeto bilang EIC o mas nakatatalino dahil mas mataas ka ng rank sa'kin kasi, para sa'kin, hindi ikaw ang Chritine na iginagalang ng marami. Ikaw ang Chritine na naamoy ko ang lahat ng baho at siyempre, nakidungis din sa putik mo sa mukha. Ikaw 'yung kulangot na ipinahid na sa pader, aba, sumasama pa rin sa daliri. Ikaw 'yung tae sa banyo na ayaw lumubog kasi, ewan, tinubol ata ako no'n. Ikaw 'yung ingrown sa kuko na kahit ilang beses ipalinis, matindi, tumutubo pa ring lintik ka. Ikaw 'yung...kahit gano'n lang ang tingin sa sarili, tinuring kong mahalagang bahagi ng araw-araw ko. At 18 ka na, so, legal ka na. Magtino na tayo sa pagtawid. Baka masita tayo ng J-Walking. Mahirap nang matulog sa presinto. Mahal kita. 'Lam mo 'yan.  God bless. P.S. Surprise mo naman ako sa debut ko. Biro lang.

 Pangalawang gabi ng hindi natin pag-uusap Masakit. Sinasanay mo na yata akong mag-isa Sa kagandahan ng buwan kanina, ikaw ang nasa hinagap Magiging mas kabigha-bighani siguro kung nandyan ka Kung katulad ng dati, ay nasasabihan ka Kung gaano kaakit-akit ang mga bagay sa pagitan man ng ilang milya Pero, malayo ka na Mas malayo pa sa Laguna--kung saan ka nakatira Mas malayo pa siguro sa pagitan ko at ng mga tala kanina Hindi ko na alam kung ni ang panaginip ko ay maaabot ka pa Alam mo, natatakot na ko Kasi, nababatid ko na ang tuluyan mong paglaho Habang natutulog ka nang mahimbing, sana Sana maipahinga ko rin ang mga mata ko katulad mo Sana naipapahinga ko rin ang isip, Sana naipapahinga ko rin ang puso ko Sana umaga na Sana sumikat na ang umaga, ulit Kasi sa umaga ko nalang nararamdaman ang kapayapaan  ng puso, isip, at diwa. Umaga ko nalang nararamdaman ang pag-ibig na sana ay maibalik pa Tatlong araw ko nang pinagsisihan ang mga salita Na nasambit ng nanginginig na labi sa ...
