Happy Birthday!

The moment I realize I can't always win,
Is the time I started appreciating those times I didn't lose.
Then I remember this guy who once died in the cross.

He was born years ago on this same day,
He is the most powerful creator.
But even he started a simple journey,
As a human, tormented with pain had he.

Beneath the glow of unending rays,
He hid his powers and played lowkey.

He has the greatest wisdom,
That they never were able to decode.
So they nailed him to the cross,
As hard as they could.

Envy they felt, jealousy it went.
And their solution is killing his human body swift.
For we humans are too afraid of what we couldn't understand,
For us mystery is a crime.

Little do they know he is the lord,
Now he has risen effortlessly.
And now sitting with the Father Almighty,
He will then come to judge the living and the dead.

But before that let us remember,
Different versions, but for the most he was born in December.
His sacrifice will prosper,
In our hearts it will be remembered.

Happy Birthday!

Unsung Hero

The man who shares his seat to the elderly,
In the bus when nobody cares to see.

He always checks his environment,
When he is buying an important ticket.
Checking if he will see a woman trying hard carrying a baby,
He intended to give his place for that lady.

The one who always says thank you,
After the vendor gives the change that is due.

He is lenient overlooking little things,
Just for the sake of avoiding conflict.

He does not want hate and war,
He wants peace.
Not because he is incapable,
But because he just came from it.

A man who always smiles,
When a stranger gives him a stare.

For the dogs, showing the teeth is intimidating,
But he is showing his teeth for the sake of smiling.
To lift the spirit,
To kill the awkwardness.

His eyes are teary when he smiles,
Those eyes that have seen almost ever man's kind.

He knows everyone will take advantage if given a chance,
Thus he gives his advantage for the weak and deprived.

Might not be the only one in this world,
But he can't be described by a common word.

I always see him in everyday,
He too always smiles at me.

When I look at the mirror,
It's him I see.

Kathang Isip (Hango sa bobo kong pag-iisip.)

Isang araw, tanghali na ng ako'y nagising,
Isang mensahe galing sa kaibigan agad kong napansin.
May magandang balita raw na parating,
Ako'y natuwa, Crush ko sa opisina,
May pag asang makilala.

Ako'y naghanda, nagbihis ng maganda,
Sumisipol habang tumatawa.
Imahinasyong mapaglaro, mapag-anyaya.
Forever sa piling nya naaaninag, nakikita.

At ganun nga ako ay pumasok na at nagpatuloy,
Umiilag sa init ng araw para damit ay di mangamoy.
Habang nandun na ilang oras inisip kung ano ang sasabihin,
Isip ko'y hinahasa at pilit minemorya,

Mga katagang sasabihin, punchline at iba pa,
Upang pag uusap natin di boring, maging masaya.
At dumating na oras pero bakit wala pa,
Ok lang baka sa break nalang nila.

Dumating na end of shift ko wala parin,
Unti unting bumabaon sa isip ko lumalalim.
Impossible nga yata na pumayag makipagkilala,
Nakalimutan ko isa siyang prinsesa.

Isang dyosa na animo'y hulog ng langit,
Kay ganda niya nakakalimutan kong pumikit.
Di bale na kung di ko siya makilala,
Basta sana lang makita ko siya minsan.

Ako ay umuwi, di ko na inisip kung bakit,
Puso ko parang dinurog sa lamig.
Ito nga yata ibig sabihin ng malamig na pasko,
Di pasko pero ang lamig na.

Di naman siguro masamang mangarap,
Atleast kanina ako'y sumaya.
Napangiti ng di ko nahahalata,

Isang kathang isip na gusto ko paniwalaan,
Alam ko namang sa huli masasampal ng katotohanan.
Ngunit tingnan ka ay isang karangalan,

Ang ikaw ay makasama ay parang lakad sa tubig,
Sa imahinasyon ko nalang itutuloy ang ating pag-ibig.
