Over Night

Some changes do happen over night
Some change even happen in a span of an hour, a few minutes or in a split of a second

Over night,

The eyes of an innocent can be opened
The memory of a professional can go loose
A soul may leave the earth
A new life may begin
You can fall in love
You can fall out of love
I can end the world for someone
Or I can end mine…


And when the dawn breaks the next day
You know that it’s never gonna be the same….

Sige Tawa Lang

Natatawa sila
Naiinis ako
Napapangiti sila
Umiiyak ako

Ang nakakatuwa
Alam ko kung bakit sila nagkakasiyahan
Samantalang ni isa sa kanila'y walang nakakaalam
Saan nanggagaling ang paghihimutok ko
Saan nagmumula ang bawat patak ng luha ko

A Wish

Experience has told us to be careful with our wishes for when it comes true it seems like there's no turning back. When we make a wish (or a prayer when we bring it to Him), we often look at things in our point of view alone. And more often than not, we see the things that will be of benefit to us, not caring to look at what other consequences it may do on us. I guess that's just being....human. Such that when the next opportunity to wish comes along, it would seem like we haven't learned our lesson after all.


Anyway,


Holding a piece of triangular paper
That says "Handle With Care"
Waiting for our cue
To let this small being fly
Our lips parting in small whispers
To this butterfly we share
For our wishes to come true
As we set it free to the sky


BUT



I just thought about it...



What if my wish is mutually exclusive to the wish of the person sitting next to me, or the one over the next table, or anyone of the hundreds who made their wishes on that same point in time.

Who's wish would then be granted?

A Tough Question

Over a change of CD, I overheard a question being asked to the listeners of a certain radio station:

Which is Harder -- LOVING someone EVEN IF it's one-sided or GIVING UP on someone BECAUSE it's one-sided?

Tr!v!A

Did You Know?

Tarsiers, one of my favorite animals in this world, have suicidal tendencies? They jump head first when they can't handle it anymore....
