Hey Master! I really want that blue ribbon but why did you give me this maroon ribbon instead?! Chuchu…”

I’m really sad because I didn’t get what I asked for… Do you understand me?

Recently I asked my master to buy me a ribbon, “I saw this shimmering blue ribbon in the store and I really love to have it.”, I told my master.

He pronised me to give one, but the next morning I was disappointed to see a maroon ribbon lying beside me with a note that says “here’s the ribbon I promised… with love M. Little Star.”

I was really disappointed. The one I asked for is not the one given to me…

Questions in my mind keep bothering me. Why my master did give me this? Have he forgotten my wish? Doesn’t he want me to be happy?

I cried and was really sad. I’m not aware he’s watching me and when he saw me crying hard, he tap my shoulder and said “I saw the ribbon you we’re asking for, but I also saw many rats who were wearing the same ribbon. My Lavu, I love you so that I want something special for you. I saw the maroon ribbon best for you. You may not see its beauty yet because of your resentment but believe me, all I want is the best for you. Someday you will understand. I love you.” Then he embraced me and kissed me before he goes back to work.

Days passed… and little by little I saw his purpose in giving me the maroon ribb0n…little by little I was amazed of how he intends it to be… and little by little I understood my master. And now, I’m really thankful he gave me this instead of what I wished. He really knows what’s best for me! -

Thing we wanted are not always given for a purpose-

nakita kong lumubog ang araw
hinihintay ko ang pagsikat
matagal ba o naiinip lang ako
kapag nahinto
kabiguan,
hindi ko na masisilayan
ang kagandahang lagi kong nakikita
sa likod ng mga matang nakapikit.

nakita kong lumubog ang araw
pero kahit sa panaginip
pagsikat niya'y
pinagkakait
pilit na lang tinanabunan ng ngiti
at pagbabakasakali
ang takot at pagaalinlangan
habang inaalala ko
ang pigil na pagluha
sa paglayo...

Upod...

Babae sa Sapatos

sinulat ni: Oliver

Tinatapakan ng suot kong sandalyas
Ang tinatambol kong dibdib - ngayon

Bakit naman ngayon pa!
Kung kailan makakaharap ko na siya at makikita ng malapitan

Mula sa silyang kinauupuan, tumatagos
Ang tingin ko sa istante ng mga sapatos

Habang pinagmamasdan
ang indayog ng kanyang balakang.

Kasabay ng pagbuklat sa kahon
Ang halimuyak ng paglapit

Nakakalito. Nalilito
Maging ang tila nagja-jack hammer kong tuhod

hindi ko tuloy alam
Kung alin nga ba ang gusto kong sukatin

Ang tayug ba ng dibdib at bilog ng hita niya
O ang Chuck Taylor na isinusukat niya sa aking paa?

Sigurado ako,
Gusto ko yung sapatos--kahit masikip.

Ang hindi ko sigurado
Ay kung ano ang nangyayari sa pantalon ko

Bakit parang sumisikip?

There's an unseen connection between two hearts meant for each other,

a magic which actually needs no words.

And if a word is spoken,

it's not the ears that hear--it's the heart that feels.

Summer is sweat of love romance to ask
Ask that garden
That blooms in the morning
That could kills the heaven from that skies of the right heaven
Where she sits
Upon me
Ah wishful
Ask from the goddess
Give me now
True beauty of illness
Corrections of lies
Where one moment of time I tried
Then again then again
Free lines from these eyes of mine burst into
Lies and stuck.
