There Is no “Retirement for Dummies,” no Idiot’s Guide, no road maps, no soggy, stained barroom napkins with a bar graph and cryptic, bulleted list that somehow crystalizes into a bright, clear path to peace and happiness in the middle of the night
Tila may problema sa aking pagsasagwan at hindi ako patungo sa direksyong nais kong puntahan.
As I choose to walk to this side
This uneasy mind will never subside.
Too old enough to understand,
Because time cannot be reversed,
This life is wretched.
Catching up with old friends? A calculated move,
Their laughter rang hollow in my ears.
The blue glow of his phone bathed his face in…
The laugh you made was so unforgettable;
It reminded me of the inaccessible skinny privilege.
brush blush on my cheeks
till i am painfully redder than i should be
whisper into my lips,
torment me this way,
Loneliness is a sandcastle
that spreads its fingers
to open its palm to souls
curling in like a fetus.
The decision to be famous, for fame as a form of social currency, is one of the easiest decisions to be made today given that the social media is a public platform where anyone who intends to publish a content or pass a message through media does a so.
“You’ll enter heaven if you’re kind,”
My teacher assured me.
So, even at eight, I was kind,
And all my friends loved me.
Quitting is easy. Most times, it’s a lot easier than sticking around.
