Linya ng "Nakakapagod" at "Pagtakas"

Pag napapagod ka na, siguradong naroon ka sa linya ng "nakakapagod". Nasa loob ka, hindi ka makalabas. Dahil iniisip mo sayang, nariyan ka na sa loob, sa tahimik, sa normal na siklo. Okay ka na diyan. Bakit kailangan mo pang tumawid sa linya ng hindi nakakapagod, sa linya ng "pagtakas"? Baka hindi ka na makabalik sa loob? Baka hindi ka na makaramdam ng parehong pakiramdam?
Samantalang sa labas, ayun, malayo ka sa lahat, malayo sa linya ng "pagtakas", tahimik, bago ang lahat, walang lungkot, walang away, walang responsibilidad, magisa ka. Ngunit baka hanapin mo iyong dating nasa linya ng "nakakapagod".

Minsan ay kailangan mo lang tumayo sa gitna. Sa linyang naghahati, sa linya ng "nakakapagod" at "pagtakas". Duon sa linya na, nakikita mo ang parehong panig. Duon sa linya na, may oras ka sa sarili, may oras kang magisip at may oras kang humugot ng lakas at maging handa ka na. Oras magisip, kung handa ka na...

Kung tatawid ka ba sa linya ng pagtakas na bago ang lahat?
O di kaya'y, babalik ka ba sa linya ng nakakapagod kung saan duon ka na nasanay?

Thoughts to Ponder (Quotes from my poem collection)

One Day

One day

(A thought to ponder)

One day, you will need to find a place, you will need to face the time that you leave everyone, you will change yourself, you will need to exhaust all of your resorts to step forward. Go to college, find a job and earn for yourself. One day,  you will be walking alone, you will be lost at one point, you will lose the presence of people, you will make an effort to make the presence for people. One day, you will try to correct things, you will correct things because that’s the norm, you will find your own norm, you will go back to those things you thought were truthful but simply not. One day, you will wish that it takes a second to say “No”, you will ask yourself why you opted to say a hundred “Yes”.

One day, you will think of that day.

One day.

Bahagi Ka

Bahagi Ka

Sa Panitk ni: Alvin Alonzo

Lumipas ang araw,
ng bagong librong dati'y uhaw,
sa alon ng liwanag,
ng bagong kaalaman.

Nagbunga ng pagkakaisa,
Sinubok, lumipas, ngunit di nagwakas,
At bukas kung saan,
dadalin ng bathalaan.

Ngunit saan nga ba nagbubukal,
ang ala-alang hindi nawalay.
saan nga ba nagsimula?
ang natatanging ala-ala?

Hindi man laging isa ang sapantaha,
Ngunit sa isip at puso,
laging nandito ka.

Patuloy ang duyog ng klase na iisa,

Patuloy ang kaba sa bawat pagtayo,
Patuloy ang ligaya sa bawat pagupo,
Sa pagwutawi ng artikulo,
Bawat tinig ay nasa king puso.

Humayo ka kaibigan,
Tahakin ang nais mong tahakin,
Igipalpal ang pusong maging,
nais marating.

Wala man tayo habambuhay sa iisang kwarto,
Nasa isang bahagi ng puso,
ang ala-ala na
hinding-hindi kailan man
maglalaho.

Thought to Ponder

The world is not a depiction;

of what world is really like;

It is a filter;

It is an act of selection;

of things which do strike;

which foreground;

which made a rationalization;

The world is not one;

It merge with;

thousands of interpretation.

Mirror of Yesterday

Mirror of Yesterday

By: Alvin Alonzo

I am sorry for saying yes,

the light that crossed the bottle.

I am sorry for saying go,

Making the water spilled on the castle.

I am sorry for fixing the door,

which had never been broken.

I am sorry for cleaning the window,

full of cracks and crow.

I am sorry for making a house,

not meant to be lived.

I am sorry to make you warm,

then causing you that grief.

I am sorry for yesterday,

Which I always pray.

I am sorry but it is better,

if we had just chose to settle.

I am sorry for can't explain,

You can't forget the pain.

I also felt the same.
We are part of the chain.

I want to caress you,
Hope by this time you knew.
Me and you are one.

Coz I'm your only guardian.

The Seal

The Seal
By: Alvin C. Alonzo

The soul walks under the rain,
it crashes the solid veins.
The water drops from the heaven.
It pours the face of the unseen.

The soul saw a ghost,
Bold, defined and gold.
The wheels roll on the land,
full of drops and wasps.

They walk until the end.
They went back through the earth,
Touching the sparks of lights,
dancing with furthest sights.

They talk without a sound.
They hear through the grounds.
Caring, tender, and real,
Surreal, baring and chill.

They weren't real,
but the author made them feel.
They feel the warmth of the story,
that they were seal to feel.

Their heart beats,
with the ink of the pen,
Their feet walk through,
the finest paper with gems.

The story has not ended yet ,
but the soul and ghost,
are at its finest thoughts
they are part of the story.

They know they're out of control,
but the story,
they know,

is truly of their own.

Unspoken

Unspoken

By: Alvin Alonzo

Sat on a chair where it is cold,

A glass beside covered with bold.

The foam is soft, totally tough.

I breath a minute for every second.

The bomb exploded slowly, slowly,

Releasing the flakes deeply within.

Relinquished the dim of the genuine feelings.

The chair now covered with dusk and rain.

I hold your back.

I hold your ears.

It's soft as the dusk mixed with the breeze.

It's hard as the rock founded without ease.

The bomb returned into solitude,

Two souls now talk, slowly and hardly.

They whisper the words clearly and calmly,

It is a word of three plus the name of me.

Dusk turns to heaven,

Rain became the cover,

Of the feeling they share,

With this infinity…

Strongest Foe

Strongest Foe

By: Alvin Alonzo

You are not my friend,

You made me smile.

You made me feel,

That I am special.

You are not my friend,

You made me dream.

You made feel,

That it is an inch near.

You are not my friend.

You made me the best.

You made me feel,

That I can do all rest.

You are not my friend.

You never did.

You have never been.

You will never be.

I feel thorough when you are there,

I feel guided when with time you spare,

You are not my friend.

Because you are special,

forever
for me.

The Death of Sprout

The Death of Sprout

By: Alvin C. Alonzo

Is it the love which start?

Or is it the care it came from?

Never asked but the boy just prayed.

A flower to bloom in summer day.

Is it the light which give the life?

Is it the water which make it grow?

All just happened.

Bloomed in snow.

Is it the person make it right?

Is it the time to say you fight?

I’d never known it all happened.

Just took a snap to make it glow.

One day, it all came dried.

The sprout just died.

When does it die?

When does it say a hard goodbye?

Don’t worry young boy,

It was never vanished,

Sprout converted part of your summer day.

Memories of the sprout,

will forever flourish.

Closer to You

Closer to You

By: Alvin Alonzo

The streets are dark.

Lights are off.

Gush and flush is all you hear,

With this heart pump out of cheer.

Twenty steps far,

He saw nothing but you,

He glanced nothing but a car,

With his heart hardly pumping.

Ten steps far,

It all just opened.

A life anew.

Of mystery and inspiration too.

One inch closer it’s you and me,

Dead air serenades,

But the heart now speaks.

The blues of seas.

Weeks of two already passed,

It was a dream that we met at last.

When I wake up you are still in me.

Dream is better,

with us
forever.

It is (A poem written for someone)

It is

By: Alvin

It is the wind which brought us here.

It is cold, dim and wrecking.

It is not the usual for living.

But you made me feel not just a mere.

It is the land which urge me walk.

It is desert'd, crack'd and crook'd.
Not my feet carried me away.

T'was your smile and made me say.

It is not me who is me.

It is weak and not full of glee.

But when you came it made me feel.

That tomorrow is more,

than what it is.

5 Friends you will
Meet in Graduate School

by: Alvin C. Alonzo

Mahirap, nakakapagod, nakakapayat. Sana nga nakakapayat pero hindi eh. Graduate school is like a jungle. When you enter graduate school, you need to be ready with the challenges you will face in the future. But of course you also need to expect people to arrive in this new chapter of your life as a Master's student. During the course of my graduate study in De La Salle University, I met very significant people who changed my point of view in life. And also, I met people, these people who are continuously inspiring me as an individual! :)

Arnel 

The Mister Cheerful

In graduate school, you need to be with people who will cheer you up when you got 80 in your research paper. You will meet a person who will always be there to say everything is going to be okay! The very popular line, "All is well".A person with a very pleasing ambiance every time you see him/ her. Tapos yung sa tuwid na daan ka dadalin! Stress ka na nga sa work, masters degree, principal, paper works, students, research paper at kung ano ano pa kaya wag mo ng dagdagan ng sakit ng ulo mo. Humanap ka ng Mister Cheerful. Everything is light and fine with people like that! 

Jere

The Cool Guy

When you enter your room in graduate school, you will always see someone who is cool. Yung tipong ay parang buti pa sya parang araw araw nakapaghilod. Ewan ko ba, ito yung taong pag pumasok ng school naka shorts and tshirt at chill. Pero when he was asked to do something in the class, he is always on the go! Ito yung kaibigan mong iba yung major sa inyo. Aba! Magaling yan umarte, theater arts major eh! Masipag pero very light ang atmosphere! Masters degree is a matter of choosing your peers. You need to be the people who will ease your negativity in mind.

Anje

The Mister Smiley

Magkakaroon ka ng kaklase sa Masters na iba ang soul and fighting spirit. Ito yung taong, very happy and very fighting! Yung tipong lahat ng report, laban lang! In graduate school, there are lots of unexpected things to do. Minsan expected mo na pero di mo lang talaga ginagawa. ito yung taong magugulat ka na lang tapos nya na. OO TAPOS NYA NA. Pero kahit pag nakikita mo sya parang wala pa syang nagagawa pero, OO TAPOS NYA NA. You need to be surrounded with people who are fun, adventurous, wild and free but very hardworking and studious!

Peyt

Dora the Explorer

Pagpasok mo sa room may makikita ka dyan na sobrang suplada or mukang alta. Si Peyt yun! In graduate school, there will always be a time that you will give impression to people. It is not bad to give impression bad do not base your whole life with impression. Ito yung classmate mo na kala mo Miss Minchin pero sobrang kulit pala at minsan, I mean palaging, out of normal mind. Tapos nabansagan din syang Dora dahil lage sya napupunta sansan to travel and others, kung san sang kweba at karagatan na napupuntahan. Literal syang wonder woman! At nawalan ng trabaho si Dora dahil sa kanya dahil kaka beaching nya. Sometimes there will always come that you need to relax and be absent in graduate school. You do not need to be with the studies religiously 24/7. You must learn how to give time for yourself and learn how to take a break!

Pam

The Walking Encyclopedia

Pag nagmasters ka wag kang magugulat, na may mga tao kang makilala na tatanungin mo yung existence sa classroom kase dapat wala na to dito, kase ang galing nito eh. Hahaha! Minsan may kape, minsan may libro, minsan tulog, minsan nakataas paa, minsan wala lang, minsan todo kinig. You will always meet a person who will be always much better than your macroskills. But the good thing about it is the down to earth response of her. She is humble and may pagka SAN GOKU minsan. She is instantaneous and funny. Minsan tunatawa sya ng masayang masaya ng walang reason. In graduate school, you always need to be with smart people, but not to be with other toxic people.
