Isang Pangarap

(Spoken Poetry)


Nangarap ako ng isang masayang Pamilya. Happy Family kung kami ay tawagin. 

Sinikap ko na maging maayos. Ngunit sabi nga nila kung hindi ukol hindi bubukol. 

Kung para sayo, para sayo, anuman ang mangyari.

Maraming naganap. Ilang taon din naman ang naging pagsasama.

Kadalasan mga araw naging maligaya dahil kasama sya. Buo ang pamilya.

Pero kahit ano pa ang gawin mo kung magluluko, magluluko, kung mang iiwan iiwanan ka talaga. 

Nagmakaawa ka na, nagpakababa pa, sa huli ikaw pa nga ang may sala.

Masyadong masakit hanggang ngayon ramdam na ramdam pa. 

Panahon na ang lumipas, mahaba na pala. 

Pero damang dama dahil sobrang lalim pala.

Andun ang takot hindi lang para sa sarili pero para rin na rin sa anak

Sa tuwina ang saya parang pilit na lang. 

Nakikita mo kasi sa mga mata ng anak mo ang lungkot. 

Nararamdaman mo ang kanyang lumbay. 

Nasasaktan ka kasi pakiramdam mo parang wala na syang pangarap. 

Takot na takot ka  na ang tanging nagagawa mo na lang ay umiyak. 

Bakit nga ba na ang isang pangarap mo hindi na magawang matupad? 

Ano nga ba ang nararapat? Masama ba na mangarap?

Siguro nga mali talaga. Wala sa tagal ng pagsasama. 

Kung yon nga hindi naging sapat, ipagpipilitan mo pa ba?

Akala ko okay na ako, hindi pa pala. Bakit ang sakit ramdam na ramdam pa?

 Hanggang kailan puso tuluyan na sanang maghilom. 

Nakakamiss din pero syempre in denial pa rin. 

Sabihin mo man na ikaw ay okay na pero kita naman sa mga mata na hindi pa.

Hanggang Isang Pangarap na nga lang pala talaga.

Kaulayaw

          Kaulayaw  is a Tagalog word for "close companion". And, as a coffee drinker, coffee is always my  "kaulayaw"  when doing something or just thinking of anything.      But do you know that there is actually a coffee shop named  "Kaulayaw Cafe"?  I only have known it through my sister. It is shown on her vlog/youtube channel. You can watch it here :      The Kaulayaw Cafe is located along Sumulong Highway in Antipolo City.   It has a very nice interior resonant with the kind of cafes or restaurants you can find in Tagaytay or in Baguio. The third floor has an open-air dining area where guests could feel the unruffled waft and they could also immerse in the green scenery of Rizal Province as well as the skyline of Metro Manila.      The Cafe serves coffee made of coffee beans from Mountain Province such as in Sagada and Benguet and they also have their own blend the “ Kaulayaw ”. Coffee pouches and other coffee accessories are also available f

MALIBU RISING

  Malibu Rising. (Made my blood pressure rise too, I think.) (Daughter's POV #5) For my first July read, of course, it was another work from Taylor Jenkins-Reid. I am just so obsessed with how she writes and how I get immersed with it.  And, Malibu Rising did not disappoint me. This book might just be my favorite novel written by TJR. The drama, the love, revelations, and confessions just makes this book such a masterpiece. With each page I read, I actually find myself daydreaming as if I am also part of the story. How I feel and connect with each character- especially Nina. How this book tackled her relationship with her father was just heartbreaking. All her life her father was absent, and then he showed up out of nowhere, earned her trust and love, left again for another woman, then showed up years later because he’s already old, lonely, and needs his “family” and their “forgiveness.” The anger and sadness just mixed and my emotions were literally all over the place. How proud I
