After sixteen years
How does one say bye?
How do you let go?
Not of them
But the company
To embrace loneliness
And say bye
How?
How do you refuse a silent bye bye
To no one but the closer ones
I’ll play a façade, a camaraderie
When you love the one who’s so far away
How do you deal with not being able to wake up every morning
And breathe, “I Love You!”
When your future prospectus dares to tell you
“Never again will you meet”
How do you wake up and still carry on with this loved one?
When words are your only angelic weapon to play in lieu of your heart
How do you remain faithful with so many others close by
It’s the devotion of the soul
It’s the freedom of the heart
It’s a reverie of the mind
If I faltered
Where would we stand?
If you faltered
Would my heart still beat?
When you love the one who’s far away
Regardless of the generation
How do you cope with the thought of future separation?

Child Unleashed
I know for a fact when I was a kid
If I was tethered or leashed, I’d be dead
That rope would have been a real temptation
I would have slung it up on a tree
Apple, pear, orange, depending on the shape
It would not have mattered to me
Swinging there for hours
By the neck of course
If that didn't work because the branch was so high
I would have tied lots of rocks to it and waved bye bye
While tossing them in the lake
Since something involving line, heavy objects tied to me
Were only fun and games
It may or may not have dawned on me
After the rocks went in
Logically it would follow
I would have been pulled in as well
Normally I can’t breathe beneath the lake
And eat my cake too
On future birthdays it might be nice to be around
To have a bite or two
My parents loved me far too much
To leave me with a leash tied up
I would have chewed right through it
And ate it for lunch
They knew from the start what an idiot I was
With a little rope I could have caught a cow
Or found a way to hang the cat or myself by now
Mom and dad knew not to tie me down
Knew I would fail that test
If someone was going to kill me
They were the best

My 8th Leaf
Picked thee from high place
Meters from its base
Now the longest one
Note's page overspan
It's a bamboo leaf
Students – sports players
-And stage performers

Just said “Bye, bye you”
Towards Home-Sweet-Home
September last day
While bus on delay
Road's bit so rocky
Blurred air was dusty
Sun has just set
On bus “Marienelle”
Beside window sill
On Sigma somewhere?
A highschool near there
Dumarao coming
Processed Salingsing
Papers to Ma'am Bing
Bought books, inks, CDs
Went to Ma'am Gomez
Somehow busy day.

*My Toladas Collection
There is a mammal in Madagascar that is nearing extinction
Who, through an unusual evolution, has a unique distinction
Like a woodpecker, it taps on the trees through the bark
Vibrating insects and bugs to eat in the dark.
Instead of a beak it uses a long digit on its hands
The middle one having grown to a rather long expanse
Its tapping at night makes a unique forest sound
And with its long middle digit it scoops up the grubs that it found.
The name of this primate? It’s called the Aye-aye,
And due to deforestation it’s a species going bye-bye
But for the few years on this planet it still might linger
It looks like to me, they’re giving man the finger.
Absolutely true – look it up.
Bill Haley gave us 'Rock Around The Clock'
showed us music in a different way,
Chuck Berry sang 'Johnny B. Goode'
and Buddy Holly said 'That'll Be The Day'.
Elvis went to 'Heartbreak Hotel'
and came back as the king of pop,
Jerry Lee sent us 'Great Balls Of Fire'
while Danny and his group were 'At The Hop'.
The Everly's were saying 'Bye Bye Love'
Bobby Darin was out 'Beyond The Sea',
Little Richard was with 'Long Tall Sally'
and Lloyd Price thought he was 'Stagger Lee'.
Paul Anka introduced us to 'Diana'
Del Shannon told us of his 'Runaway',
Big Bopper talked about 'Chantilly lace'
and the Rolling Stones said love 'Not Fade Away'.
Eddie Cochran took 'Three Steps To Heaven'
Don McLain made 'American Pies',
Roy Orbison was still lost 'In Dreams'
as the Platters sang 'Smoke Gets In Your Eyes'.
When the music began to change
jazz, blues and rock and roll,
got more electronic and louder
became rock, heavy metal and soul.
There are a lot more I could name
but I guess I'll just call them the rest,
It's a long time ago but I'll never forget
Rock and Roll for me was the best.
I can hear your heartbeat inside me
Even though you're gone.
I prayed for you my whole life.
You finally came,
So full of love and light.
We were always together.
I thought we always would be.
I took care of you, and you watched out for me.
Then one day, everything changed. You didn't look at me the same way,
You were always angry
You were cruel.
You wanted to hurt me with your words
Like a thousand cuts.
I sat there bleeding,
Blood no one could see.
I thought I would never recover and I was right,
I never did.
I wondered around by myself,
Watching you with your new best friend
Laughing, so happy.
I tried to numb the loneliness,
The emptiness the jealousy.
I missed you. I missed you.
My world turned dark.
I sat there empty, ready to leave this world
Because mine was gone .
I had a dream
you were a leaf in the wind
Floating away from me,
I ran and I ran and I tried to catch you
But you were just out of reach
I couldn't touch you ,
Even one last time
I just wanted to you touch your hand
Tell you I love you,
I love you.
I stopped, standing motionless
Watching you.
it was too late,
I waited too long to reach you,
To hear your heartbeat again
when you were part of me.
I could hear your voice
An echo in my memory
whispering in the wind,
bye bye Mommy bye bye.

Two cowpokes stagger to the saloon
Fighting because thems fighting words
Over a red parrot blocking their path
Pacing arrogantly before the bar entrance
Flapping green wings and screeching
The two men eventually find their way in
Order up a bottle of whiskey
Drink it down quickly and ask for another
Both argue a matter dramatically clear
Articulate philosophical words from the whiskey and beer
One says the feathery creature outside is a bird
The other says its a parrot
B-I-R-D I says! says Jack, with a black patch over an eye
PARROT! Screams back Sam because Sam's the man
Judge Johnson interrupted the hombres
Disturbed from his corner and sleep
Lifting himself and his beard, heavy from drinking
Figuring to intervene
Jack screams at Sam, you're as dumb as a sack of dirt
That thing, that BIRD outside has wings not fur
It has a beak and eats seeds too you goof
Sam yells back, That species is parrot you idiot!
Judge Jonson jumps in, “It does not matter.”
Then he collapsed. Table crashed…. The end one…. so that's that
Jack and Sam step outside with drawn pistols
One of them says one more time, “BIRD!” “You *****!”
The other replies, “PARROT!” “You bastard!”
They both gunned down the bird. No surprise
And went back to drinking inside
Being they was best buddies and all
The parrot or bird ended up there at the top
On the hill in the cemetery in lots a pieces
May it rest in peace
With a tombstone above its head
The epitaph read;
Here lies the dead bird Polly. It was a parrot.
Had a terrible speech impediment
It screeched and met its doom
If it knew something about sobriety
If it could have quacked or chirped quietly
Stayed clear of bar flies and saloons
Who knows
But Bye bye birdie good-bye
Seems like we've all become
A nation of ruddy pill poppers
A pill for this, a pill for that
Even sex, now that's the topper
How did it finally come to this?
The doctors are making a killing
Prescribing a pill for a hang nail
And patients are only willing
Always trusted, the family doctor
Upstanding pillar of society
That was then, this is now
Seems like a lack of propriety
The code of ethics that used to be
Are forthwith being ignored
In favour of that almighty dollar
An outgrowth we can ill afford
Old rules have been abandoned
It's all about the bottom line
Say bye bye to professional ethics
From another place and time

INSTANTLY HERE
When my soul
leaves my body
I can see it in my Spirit
When I come to die
my true self shall FLY
I' can feel it in my spirit
as I say bye-bye
as look look on and you say, Lord WHY-WHY
So when I'm gone
No, No! Need to CRY (don''t you cry)
It won't be long
I'll be home, home in the
Arms of GOD'
INSTANTLY
INSTANTLY
INSTANTLY
FOR ALL OF ETERNITY
INSTANTLY
INSTANTLY
INSTANTLY
FOR ALL OF ETERNITY
as I say bye-bye
as look look on and you say, Lord WHY-WHY
So when I'm gone
No, No! Need to CRY (don''t you cry) I'm now on the Lord's side
INSTANTLY
INSTANTLY
INSTANTLY
FOR ALL OF ETERNITY
You'll see me again in NEW JERESALEM
AMEN
Hallelujah
