Baguio City

City in the Sky
You always want to get there
Though you treat me cold

Childhood Dreams

The world is a place of happy things
Things that you are for the first time
Starting to know and experience
In your childhood, you cherish

Everything you see, you wanted to be
Until you grew up
Enough to know what you want
...You go back to time and reminisce

In our childhood we built
Dreams that will shape our future
Some came true, others just past us by
Yet some are waiting for us to conquer

In the dawn of our life
We sat down and reflect
A smile in our face will surely appear
Of dreams we have claimed and enjoyed

Yet there will be times at dawn
When we cried and feel sorry
For things that comes our way
We never grab and take

Sometimes we regret 
That some of our dreams never came
Yet we should know our childhood dreams
Helped us reach where we are now

Batanes

On the rocky hills
Towering above the seas
Over gloomy sky

Where Greed Hides Herself

the people's money
they called it porked
inside a barrel 
that can be inserted 
on the greediest pockets
tax from sweat and blood
of the working class
that strive
to find conforts in life
to help the poor as they reasoned

long greed had consumed
the country that i call my love
that the money i have worked hard for 
where have all gone
long greed hides itself under the shadow of charity
but we are not damned anymore
the wisdom within us
awaken
and we cannot be decieved anymore

Dirty Miss Politics

yet she is always flirty
they want her to be conquer 
she brought them in her yonker
making us all unworthy

And the sun shines bright
A feeling of relief comes – 10/28/05

Fairy Tales

No I don't need your words
I don't want you're silly beauty
Just want you to stand in front of me
Hug you and feel your hear beat

And we will fly to our dream world
A world we created
Where people's cynical mind
Can never touch our being

In my deep, sweet dream
A world of pure intimacy, 
Happiness between us
You wake me up

Meeting This Girl

This girl I've met so lively and sweet
She looked at my eyes and made me sweat
All night I dream of her,
this burden - that I bear
makes me mad that pushed me to eating

My Fortress

Dangers pass by me
	The enemy fled away
		In my fortress, saved

Poem of Love, Grace and My Salvation

I am now overwhelm 
Emotions stirring me 
The things I’m containing
Trying hard to hide the world
You let open and scattered
In the wind that blows our face

I don’t want the world to see me
Like this
And no one see me in this state 
As you do
I want the world to know am strong
Yet you make me feel vulnerable

I had shown the world I am invincible
A person of great courage
But sometimes I get tired
Of carrying the load which is not mine
Great expectation surrounds my entity 
Yet now I melt in front of you

I want freedom
Togo anywhere and fly high
Search the world around
Be free to go deeper 
Release the real me
Without anybody noticing me 

I want to escape from the world’s  
Ever discriminating
To be with my love till eternity
Spend time together in joy
Working together
Loving each other as days past by me

Making kids
And memories
Lasting for a seconds a few
Yet I know there’s uncertainty in loving
Relationships may fall down
Be broken to shattered pieces


I’m afraid I can’t save it
From the cruelty of this universe
To condemn the fallen
To be one of them
I hated it
One thing I can do is live a day at a time

Blow like the wind
Flow like the river
That I may be released 
From the shackles of uncertainty
And plant me in a secure soil
Where I can go freely

Feelings of cruelty is not in me
Yet I’m surrounded by it
Contaminating thy hearts with dirt
Let me be free from all these
Let me spring with your love
Salvation and grace  

From eternity I shall bring forth
The sweetness of your love
The warmth of your embrace
And the freedom you gave from myself

Is God can hear us?
Are you real?
Why are you far?
Invisible from my naked eye
Yet you are everywhere from the beginning
Clouds of doubts are in my thoughts
