Once a Pedestal

Out of the green rush of leaves, And the fluffy wings of birds; I felt the breeze on my skin So pallid that seemed almost a blur. Slowly, I found myself stationed On unabased, clear plight; Where I feared not the high, Or the beauty --- so cold and mean; Once again, I became a maudlin, But not the... Sign in to see full entry.

Only Perfect Moments

When I graduated from college, I requested my batchmates to write something or anything they like on the first and last pages of my manuscript about my on-the-job training. Anna, one of my closest batchmates then, wrote something so profound and beautiful: There are no perfect people, only perfect... Sign in to see full entry.

Kitchen Remedies

Two, young men, most probably in their early 20's came to our office six months ago and wanted to do a demo about reflexology. Since I already have my own reflexelogist who come to me once a week, I wasn't really interested much anymore. I wanted to get on with what I was doing, the paperwork thing,...

Don't Really Mean

Sometimes, we don't really mean what we say. We say that we are fine when tears are falling down our faces. We say that we are not drunk when we are actually seeing the face in front of us swimming in various shapes. We say we will go to the party when actually we don't want to. We say that our...

Young Non-conformists

My friend and I were having lunch earlier today in a cafeteria and we saw this reminder on a streamer placed above the cashier's area: SMOKING NOT ALLOWED FROM 11 a.m. - 1:00 p.m. Just across our table were two teenage girls who caught our attention because they were really pretty. But we were taken... Sign in to see full entry.

Four-Liner Poem Excerpts

There are poems which I've started to write and haven't quite finished. Some of them have four lines already... 1. I am adrift At a loss of life's order I cannot think clearly And I just want to sleep 2. All I do is weep inside I cry for help But no one is there If only God will hear me 3. One day,...

Dream to Give Up

There are dreams you just have to give up, If only to allow youself another chance To dream of other things, equally satisfying, If not more fulfilling. Though how painful it seems, You just have to let go; Forget that you ever dreamed Of a dream, so good and beautiful That the mere dreaming of it... Sign in to see full entry.

LAMENTATION

I Last night, I drank from the cup of bleakness My lips quivered upon touching the rim; I really didn't hate the taste of vagueness; Instead, I feared the sense of loss in dim. II Too much pain, too much rain, They're making me insane. Pushing me down, down to the pit Of darkened doom; Where there... Sign in to see full entry.

Answer from God?

I was kneeling at the church last night, silently praying and lifting up to God my frets and pains. I told Him, I'm having a hard time forgetting my ex-boyfriend, Bobby. Several minutes ticked by, and I just knelt there, drawing comfort in the silence all round me. I looked up at the image of Christ... Sign in to see full entry.

A Memory

It's the memory of a loving hand That touches my heart in wonder, Brings my breath to a gasping zenith; Creates a lifetime fantasy of magic. If it's true that stars twinkle in a love's eye, By all means I admit in thine eyes there are, And I do not deny the clouds under me Floating in dazzling white... Sign in to see full entry.
