Think of me

 

Think of me as a cloud,

Just passing by slowly and gracefully.

Think of me as a flower,

Sweet smelling and fragile.

Think of me as a storm,

Calm, but quick to thunder loud.

Think of me as a raindrop,

Transparent and cool.

Think of me as the wind,

As it blows you away.

Think of me as a fool,

For loving you so long.

..magpapaalam na sayo ang aking kwarto

[Apollo]

Pretty Girl

 

I lie awake at night

See things in black & white

I've only got you inside my mind

You know you have made me blind

I lie awake and pray

That you will look my way

I have akk this music in my heat

I knew it right from the start

Oh my pretty pretty girl, I love You!

Like I never ever loved no one before you

Pretty pretty girl of my mine

Just tell me you Love me too

I need you my pretty Axx

Let me stay beside you.

I used to write your name and put it in a frame

Right beside from my bedroom wall

Let me Love you like no one has ever Love you.

Oh my pretty lady I need you

Oh pretty Axx I do Love you.

Let me stay beside you

Because I Love you!

 

 

a poem for her... Hope she reads it...

[Apollo]

I love you, not because I have to but because that is what I feel inside me.

I love you because you opened your heart for me and I think you are wonderful.

I love you with an open mind and heart.

I love you because, I think you may be my soulmate.

I love you because you are you........

[Barenaked-NoMre]

JAL,

 

You know me SO well.

 

Thanks for your call. It means a lot just hearing your voice ... and asking me the right questions. Just in the few minutes ... you got me ... thinking, feeling.

 

Yet, I couldnt really tell you what's going on.

 

Too much has happened ... you're far and busy.

 

I will try to remember what you told me.

 

Be well, bestfriend.

[Barenaked-NoMre]

BM,

 

Shocking ... getting a call from you that you're in Manila.

 

It's been 3 years since I last saw you.

 

Sorry, but I cant do as you asked/requested/want.

 

You're married now ... with a kid.

 

Yes, I can meet up with you again ... just to catch up on what's happening in each other's lives. Nothing more, nothing less.

 

Hope you will respect that.

I always get this little pinch in my heart

Whenever I hear Christmas songs being played

I wonder, could it be

Because it reminds me

Of the other Christmases?

 

Melancholic, that's what I am now.

It's that time of the year again.

[Wyld]

When I began feeling the cold winds of winter ... I began to feel fear in my heart.

 

I know how much cold and dreary weather gets me down... I know how the blues strike me each time the weather changes from warm to cold.

 

I hope somehow, things are not as bad for me this winter as they were for me last year.

 

Perhaps now that I have become a better and stronger person I will be better able to handle the cold that settles not only in my bones but in my heart and my soul as well.

 

I only ask that you hold my hand and bear with me through this. As I have said so many times before, I am the girl that the sun always kisses ... in time, the heat of the sun will warm my cheeks once again. The sun will kiss me again.

 

In time.

[Apollo]

I'm kind of a bashful person, and I need a little

help in what I want to do,<br>I want to call you on

the phone, and let you know I want you with me

everywhere I go.<br>I want to say I love you, and maybe one

day, it will come to be.<br>I'll get to hold you in my

arms, and have you make sweet love to me.<br>I want to

tell you I'll build a house for you and me, and maybe

our kids someday.<br>I hope you'll want this too,

because I want to give you joy to keep the clouds

away.<br>But like I said, I'm a bashful person, and I really

don't know what to do.<br>So that's why I wish that I

had just a litle sign of help from

you.<br>

For all of us who still believe in the unbelievable.

And for those who are still hopeful to find the right one here, of all places...

 

SEARCH ENGINE

 

Cliche city: Home

to a monopoly

of very bad dates.

We've netted everything

from the outcasts

to the outright evil;

a lurking syndicate

of losers and

even a tarantula

in a strapless bra.

Held helplessly

in a holding

pattern for too long,

we know how easy

it is to become

just another

statistic, another

numb number

that won't add up.

Problem is,

we're all just

beta versions

of the alpha male, (or female)

obsolete by design,

obsolete in numbers,

not knowing whether

to hunt or to hide.

So we're left

to scream behind

shimmering screens,

weakly giving in to

the blindness of this

fresh fiber-optic faith,

this wannabe witchcraft

where the processing

of loneliness grows

ever faster every day.

Plugged into cycles

vicious and viscous,

we seek ceaselessly

only because

we seek to be sought,

dreaming digitally

of digits decoding

another body's text,

deathly afraid of being

both unmasked

and unattached,

logging only

to find ourselves

the safest of targets,

the feeblest flames,

unmatched odds

and endless ends

still longing to be

found by those

who aren't even

looking at all.

for all the special people who are in Long Distance Affair...

 

 

 

 

LONG DISTANCE LOVE AFFAIR

 

"Whisper my name, but not to loud

This moment is ours, no need for a crowd

When I'm with you my heart sings

When you leave, my inside stings

Say you love me once again

And stay with me through thick and thin

For my love for you cannot be traced

Nor stolen or torn not even replaced

Sing me a song that fills my ears

With love unending throughout the years

My heart leaps at the sound of your voice

Telling the world that I'm your choice

For they say it just can't last

In time this too will pass

For no one can love from afar

But what do they know, here we are

And I'm coming back to get you soon

And take you even beyond the moon

For I am the groom and you are the bride

I'm preparing a place for you by my side

And when I return to gather you up

You will sit at my table wherein to sup

So many brothers you have never known

Some even helped you find your way home

You will dine with them all

Some great, some meager, some small

But all so loving and kind

Just like you, I'm sure you'll find

The gold, onyx and sapphire so bright

No darkness because of My light

From Crystal waters you shall drink

The glistening colors, blue, silver and pink

Watch the birds as they go by

Such sweet melody

a poem I written a few years ago about Internet Friendship...

 

INTERNET FRIENDSHIP

 

"I haven't ever seen you,

but I know you're really there;

I click you into reality

like magic from the air.

Your voice is like an Angel,

though I really do not hear;

your hug as warm as any

of loved ones I hold dear.

You're always there for comfort,

or a simple word of cheer;

though you're very far away,

I always have you near.

You're a very special friend,

 

[Barenaked-NoMre]

B,

 

Hmmm ... a promise made but broken.

 

Was hoping to be with you yesterday ...

 

Ayee! When will you be free?

 

I need to HAVE you!

 

A

[Barenaked-NoMre]

A/C,

 

It was good to finally meet you.

 

Thanks for the nice time and succulent dinner! Havent had a good meal like that in a long time. The salmon was delicious! ;-)

 

Also, for your advice ... really sweet of you to make it "my nite".

 

Too bad it was cut short.

Hope you got back safe there.

 

A
