Live and be strong
even if the cup of hope
keeps on spilling.

I sent letters to Him
yet I found them returned
and sealed.

I didn't ask Him
but He knew what's inside
those hopeful heart.

I discovered something in our old sofa.
A corpse of a man hidden under the leatherette.
It cause the flies to roam all over the house.
Uncle called someone he knew but never the police.
Afraid they might suspect us on a crime we didn't commit.
We waited for hours till days.
Wondered why his acquaintance took so long.
We had to stay outside.
Then something happened.
Someone came out of the house.
It was my Granny.
Shocked yet I followed her.
A red trash bag is in her right hand.
She left it beside our pot of plants.
I came to my aunt before she arrives.
Locked the doors, told them "He's" not her.
Puzzled, I explained it's a shapeshifter.
The corpse came from the dead,
imitated my Granny.
Seems he didn't imitated her too well.
I knew.
'Cause my old woman has osteoporosis
and cannot move fast.
Besides she was dead.
Six years ago..

That daughter you left
has seen the light
through the darkness.

Be proud of yourself if you
survived some trial in life
and is still surviving.
If you stood still even if you're
slowly falling.
If you overcome or still fighting
depression.
If you live even if it feels life
doesn't want you to.

-

I'm on a favorable unexpected
situation.
Like having an unplanned trip.
Or sitting with my best friend
having a delightful meal.
Being surprised or doing surprises.
Helping someone and seeing them
lighten up.
That is my simple pleasures in
life.

-

How can you say you've
seen everything if you
only seen her naked?
Have you search what's
in her soul?

-

Let them say what they
want to say.
Listen but let it pass through
your ears.
Give them a round of applause
for their effort on ruining you.
Laugh at their best selling
stories of lies.
At the end of the day, no one
knows you better but you.
Only you.

-

that mornings are new,
different beginnings.
Brighter as the sun shines
above the white cottons.

-

I forgot the meaning

of home when

I lost you.
