You may not be her first, her last, or her only...

You may not be her first, her last, or her only. She loved before, she may love again. But if she loves you now, what else matters?

She’s not perfect, you aren’t either, the two of you may never be perfect together but if she can make you laugh, cause you to think twice, admit to being human & making mistakes, hold onto her and give her the most you can.

She may not be thinking about you every second of the day, but she will give you a part of her that she knows you can break; her heart.

So don’t hurt her, don’t change her, don’t analyze, and don’t expect more than she can give. Smile when she makes you happy, let her know when she makes you mad, and miss her when she’s not there.

Broken Wings



detail from Topsy-Turvy

ICARUS

In hope
I surrendered my wings

for mortality

for senses

for life


While he

so vain

wanted to escape
through
flight


With wax

he attached

the wings which were

once

mine


He flew

so near

to my

beloved friend

the sun


Unlucky

he was

the warmth

of my ally

melted the wax


My frail wings

dropped him

the mortal

Icarus

fell.

Mutiny???

the sea is stormy

the boat is shaky

the crew in distress

some are ready for uprising

some were marooned

the shaky ship sails on

but will it survive?

will it reach better shores?

will the crew settle down?

will there be mutiny or not?

i can't wait to find out...

welcome aboard s.s. hell...

Awake

almost 3 am

roosters crowing

messages popping

half of the world sleeping

no time for weeping

no more doubts

no more maybes

just the sky above


and me

TRAPO (Sept 2003)

Sa una limpyo ka

Karon hugaw na…

Gipahid ka sa singot

Sa pangit

Nga

Dagway…

Gipahid

ka

sa

mga

kamot

nga

naghawid

ug

nagbuhat

ug

dautan…

Gitamakan ka

ug gipahid

sa

imo

ang mga

hugaw ug

baho nga

mga tiil…

Trapo limpyo man

unta ka…tungod sa tao

ikaw hugaw na…

Ang ako lang pangutana:

NGANO NAGPAGAMIT

KA?
