Kisame

Dear Kisame,

Kamusta ka? Malapit ko na namang makabisa ang kinaroroonan ng lahat ng agiw mo. Bukod sa ilang dagdag na gabok, nananatili kang kimi. Tititigan na naman kita ng matagal ngayong gabi. Ikaw na tanging saksi sa lahat ng mga ngiti, kilig, galit, hinagpis at hikbing kubli sa lahat. Tititigan ko na naman ang maraming pulgadang layo mo sa akin habang ika'y tahimik na nakikinig sa bawat pagpatak ng luha. Susubukan ko muling abutin ang iyong kinaroroonan, gaya ng pilit na pag-abot ng aking isip sa mga sagot sa katanungan. Pilit kong uunawain ang mga naganap ngunit muling mabibigo. Bagkus, manatili akong blanko, gaya ng iyong reaksyon.

Days as such

There are happy days
Those that make you float in the sky
But there are sad days
Days that make you curl up and cry

During those days it's important to cope
To live one day at a time
To fight one battle at a time
To harness more faith
To build more strength of heart

During the dark and dreary days it's important to pray
For a wise and discerning heart
For clarity behind two hazy eyes
For the will to surrender
For peace that we can't understand

During those days you cry, you bleed, you mumble
But during those days you put off giving up
You grip onto His promises until the bleeding stops
You raise your arms until the rivers of tears dry up
And you rest soundly in His hand



Every day is a blessing
