The Shadows of Yesterday
The shadows of yesterday,
Sad how they can break a heart so deeply,
With just one single mistake of holding on to a memory,
How they can make you stay,
Zip Code Shuffle
Switching zip codes has gone beyond demographic transformation. A change in mailing address can be a blast from the past that hits you right in the feels.
Super Blue Moon
Saturated powder blue woes build,
Unlike any other moon beyond the field,
Perhaps, ‘tis a rabbit hole or naught at all,
Lonely Soul, When You Will Be Whole

Throughout the passage of countless years,

Tag-Ulan at Iyong Alaala
Sa pakikinig ng pagbuhos ng ulan,
Hindi man sadya ngunit na aalala ka na naman,
Bumabalik sa nakaraan, nakaraang minsan kong pinanabikan at pinanghawakan,

Gears
Gears of empathy, connections they make, Building bridges, no barriers to break. With compassion's touch, hearts align, Love's unifying, endless sign.
Recovering My Dreams
One day I might recover them
and live that perfect life
which lies inside my head.
