reminds me of the hours

Dearest, I feel certain I am going mad again. I feel we can't go through another of those terrible times. And I shan't recover this time. I begin to hear voices, and I can't concentrate. So I am doing what seems the best thing to do. You have given me the greatest possible happiness. You have been in every way all that anyone could be. I don't think two people could have been happier till this terrible disease came. I can't fight any longer. I know that I am spoiling your life, that without me you could work. And you will I know. You see I can't even write this properly. I can't read. What I want to say is I owe all the happiness of my life to you. You have been entirely patient with me and incredibly good. I want to say that - everybody knows it. If anybody could have saved me it would have been you. Everything has gone from me but the certainty of your goodness. I can't go on spoiling your life any longer.

I don't think two people could have been happier than we have been.

V.

not pretty enough

Am I not pretty enough
Is my heart too broken
Do I cry too much
Am I too outspoken

Don't I make you laugh
Should I try it harder
Why do you see right through me

I live, I breathe, I let it rain on me
I sleep, I wake, I try hard not to break
I crave, I love, I've waited long enough
I try as hard as I can
I laugh, I feel, I make believe it's
real
I fall, I freeze, I pray down on my knees
I hope, I stand, I take it like a man
I try as hard as I can

for patrick

I Like For You To Be Still
Pablo Neruda

I like for you to be still
It is as though you are absent
And you hear me from far away
And my voice does not touch you
It seems as though your eyes had flown away
And it seems that a kiss had sealed your mouth
As all things are filled with my soul
You emerge from the things
Filled with my soul
You are like my soul
A butterfly of dream
And you are like the word: Melancholy

I like for you to be still
And you seem far away
It sounds as though you are lamenting
A butterfly cooing like a dove
And you hear me from far away
And my voice does not reach you
Let me come to be still in your silence
And let me talk to you with your silence
That is bright as a lamp
Simple, as a ring
You are like the night
With its stillness and constellations
Your silence is that of a star
As remote and candid

I like for you to be still
It is as though you are absent
Distant and full of sorrow
So you would've died
One word then, One smile is enough
And I'm happy;
Happy that it's not true

karma chameleon

karĀ·ma Etymology: Sanskrit karma fate, work
often capitalized : the force generated by a person's actions held in Hinduism and Buddhism to perpetuate transmigration and in its ethical consequences to determine the nature of the person's next existence


yesterday was definitely filled with "ups and downs" and "peaks and valleys". tami called me up at around 5am and when i answered his call, no voice was coming from my mouth. boo-hoo! he asked for the frontdesk number and told me that he can't come to work because of sore throat. i told him that i wouldn't be able to go to work too because of the obvious reason that i can't take in calls because of my stupid voice.

so i slept after that, woke up at around 7 and got a message from X ( i won't reveal names...it's dangerous) on my cellphone. here's how the SMS conversation transpired.

X: hey wake up na. baka malate na tayo
me: hey there! won't be able to go to work today. wala kasi akong boses.
X: di ka pasok? pero punta ka ng party later?
me: di ko pa alam eh. pero baka pumunta rin ako. pagiisipan ko muna.
X: pasok ka na para magkasama tayo sa party later. maghalf-day ka na lang.
me: wat tym ba ko nandiyan para considered na half day.
X: dapat 11 andito ka na.
me: sige half day na lang siguro ko.
X: text me pag papunta ka na dito. ingat ka. pasok ka na kaya ngayon. undertime ka na lang.
me: (huwattttt????!!!)

(this is how i remembered it...but my memory is good so don't argue with me)

now i'll stop here. you have to understand that X and I just started texting me yesterday. He asked for my number and i was so surprised that he actually started a conversation through text. Later that morning, ryam pissed me off...that's another story. i'll tell you more about it when i feel like it.

Anyway, i went to work. I texted him when i arrived at the office but then again that was because he requested it. He looked for my workstation and then we greeted each other. My throat was actually crying for help. Good thing i only had around 5 short calls. Then we had some training for the company's new timekeeping system. 4 pm came and it was time to go to the party....

me:Hey, asan ka na?Pano ka pupunta sa party?
X:I have a car pero mga kawave ko yung mga sasama sa atin eh
me: (surprised dahil wala ata kaming pinagusapan na sasabay ako sa kanya) di cge, sasabay na lang ako sa mga ka-wave ko. kita na lang tayo dun sa makati.

And then we went down. And then he even approached me and said that we just have to see each other sa makati. Tangina...parang kinilig ako ng slightly! Pakingshet talaga! As i would like to put it... may mga bagay na ayokong bigyan ng malisya pero parang di yata talaga pwede.

So anyways punta kami sa party, we were constantly looking for each other. We spent some time smoking. He even introduced me to some of his team mates. We even ate together. And all the while...di niya ko makausap kasi nga wala akong boses (karma yan...kasi lagi akong nanlalait! ngayon ko lang na-experience na pumunta ng party tapos di ako makapag-side comment. ok lang yan may mga araw pang susunod para sa lait!).

So i was discussing it with my friends kung ano ba talaga ang nagaganap. Probably thizizit! But i don't want to be assumptive. My defenses are still up. And then i thought, pagkatapos kong mag-invest dun sa isa...probably this is my good karma. It's time for me to feel special...to be taken care of...after being wounded...

Party ended...He took me home...We hugged....And we're still texting....And we're going to watch a movie tomorrow! Parang di ko kinakaya to! Lei, tulong!

four seasons of loneliness

it's so unusual that i haven't got out from my shell during my days off. last thursday i was supposed to go to malate. i actually have dressed up already but then again when i took a look at myself in the mirror, i came to the realization that going out woudn't fill the void. earlier that morning, while i was washing the dishes, i remembered those days when i was waiting for him to come home from his shift. i'd cook for him, and do all those stuff. i missed him...and i missed him a lot. i don't really know if it's him or the fact that i miss taking care of someone. i just sat there and cried. being single does has its own disadvantages. now i am thinking, can i get used to this again?

later that night, maychelle and i had a talk. and we did a rundown of all our talents and assets. and we came to the conclusion that we actually had it all (or so we thought) but where are all the great men? are those men already in front of us but we keep ignoring them? or as carrie actually puts it "should we stop looking for great relationships and settle for fine ones?".

potah! tissue nga diyan!

i heart manila

after getting out from work yesterday, tami and i went to robinson's for some coffee. he mentioned something about going to japan or something and establish a career there. i expressed my opinion that i have the philosophy that i can i make it big ... and i can do that without leaving the country. it's just then when i realized how in love i am with the city. through the years i've learned how to cope with all the pollution, the noise, and the people. the city in itself is very mysterious and that is the one thing that makes it alive. i've talked to high school friends who settled in provinces and i am actually surprised that they find sleeping at 9pm already late. i can't imagine myself having that same boring life ever... and now that i have my city with me, i just have to go on and sleep at 5 am and watch as the sunrise brings new life to another day.

same shit, different day!
