In my mind I won’t forget
The pain in your eyes which I detest
To touch is all I can do.
I hate it when I can’t comfort you.
Seeing blood runs thru the tubes.
I’m so scared I will lose you soon.
Every minute passes is like a ticking bomb.
Hearing your cries makes me want to die.
Anxiety fills my troubled heart.
Tears pooled in my swollen eyes.
Everything is blurry and uncertain.
I asked, God, why papa has to carry this burden?
Like a bolt of lightning struck my core.
How dare me to question what is in-store?
Who am I to insist what I want?
I kept praying and convincing myself, Thy will be done.
I beg for you to bring him back to us.
I beg for you to take away his pain.
You answered by taking away his life.
You bring him back to Father in heaven where there is no pain.
I miss him so much, it hurts.
Knowing he’s with you, that’s what matters most.
Life on earth is a gift from up above.
Death commences our great life in heaven and beyond.

Papa
(+)Mr. Nicanor Salvante Saminal
October 19, 1950 - October 18, 2011
October 19, 1950 - October 18, 2011
Life is full of struggles and imperfection.
It is good to know that we have you to lean on.
In times we fear the night and confused in sorrow.
You insist not to worry because there will be tomorrow.
During those times that luck and fate would turn against you.
I can feel your pain and shame, in your own way you just prayed.
And Papa you never gave up, you stood up, and fought,
In Shallah you utter, your faith is your best treasure.
Your strong faith is what we admire,
We are so lucky to witness it with our own eyes.
Daily dose of wisdom you share, reminding us to persevere,
to persist, and yet be gentle and to care.
Your love for music gives joy to our hearts,
And the sound of your laughter comforts our soul.
Your loyalty to the woman you married is inspiring.
We will take care of Mama who is our angel without wings.
Oh not to forget those sturdy hands that cradle,
Sturdy hands that grip and make us feel secure.
Everything will just be a memory now.
You have served your purpose and went back to our Creator.
Your unconditional love will be in our hearts forever.
In our hearts, we will never forget,
WE ARE WHO WE ARE,
BECAUSE WE GOT THE BEST FATHER THAT YOU ARE!!! (frajoma)

WYD 2013 Rio de Janeiro - In My Heart
Go and make disciples of all peoples (Matthew 28:19)
Theme for WYD in Rio de Janeiro - July 21-29, 2013
Wow! It's been awhile seen the last time I posted a blog. And most of the time I post a new poem, surely, I was inspired by something challenging in life.
Lately, I had been in chaos of how I will deal with my work, with my life. Not sure if this is the mid life crisis they call, but definitely, there are things that I cannot understand. But at least there is one thing that I am very sure of, I only find peace when I am focus with God.
After 16 years, I had stumble upon a chance to again, ignite my Catholic faith. I may not be youth anymore but I believe this will help me to keep my Catholic faith stronger and most importantly to be closer to God.
WYD 2013 Rio de Janeiro - In my heart.
For today I had checked the Visa requirement for Philippine passport holders, and I saw the we are Exempted from Tourist visa, wow, thank God for this. Now, I need to check the expenses and where I will get my funds....hahaha... God if you want this, I can do this...

A Wreak
In frantic pace I circle.
Blinded by fear and confusion.
Longing for serendipity to transcend.
Unknown emotion creeping my head.
Loathing is an unbearable sorrow.
Keeps you down and see's no tomorrow.
Trying to break free from this shackle.
A nomad in my own body and soul.
Like a magnet pulling me closer.
To this unseen reality of life.
Life a rage of unstoppable waves.
Crushing through the walls of lies.
The ray of the sun stings the eyes.
Long time in the darkness I thought I had died.
Mist of the morning dew refreshes the faith.
Yearning to be freed in the living casket.

The Song
Then there was a song.
A lullaby sang by angels.
Cradle baby to sleep.
Soothes the soul of the lost.
A symphony that shatters the barriers
of young, old and the dead.
The melody continues to flow
weaving the travesty into reality.
Life is a music.
Life is a song.
So many choices, so many voices.
Let it not deter and confuse you.

The Clown
A smile at front.
A frown deep within.
Masquerade in this life's game.
Though happiness seems so far.
Avoid insincerity in dealing with humanity.
Value others with compassion.
Let not envy destroy camaraderie.
Competition does exist.
But destroying others we must resist.

Longing
Mind sails an unknown territory.
Longing to escape the pain of reality.
Soul departs from this filthy body.
Longing for freedom and audacity.
The eyes wander across the room.
Longing to stare and find who?
Sincerity seems we all long for.
Vulnerability is a havoc we must deplore.
Nuisance is an obstacle I must face.
Everyday all I can do is ask God's grace.
I will never survive a day without you.
In this life everything owe to you.

The Rain
Drenched with trouble and fear.
Pacing hastily like a vulture ready to kill.
Rambling in my heart, dried my throat.
Unable to utter a single word.
Succumb to anger, body shaking in tremor.
I pray God forbids me to commit murder.
Sanity is about to desert me now.
Closed my fist until knuckles crack.
Suddenly I can hear the deafening thunders.
Startle me, and I shivered.
Lightning flashes thru my eyes.
Strikes a tree, turned into a fire.
Heavy breathing subsides,
Tears swelled and moisten my eyes.
Sighting of rain drops in the window pane,
Help to ease up the soul in pain.

Let's Take a Walk
It's a holiday. Instead of going to the city. I decided to stay in the dormitory and roam around the factory. Appreciating the beauty of nature without spending a cent.
Along the white picket fences of our dormitory are wild grass which unfortunately I don't know the name.
This small one find herself amongst the grass in our factory's big yard.
She is prettier if you will look closer.
Wanting to escape from the unbearable suffocation.
"It is now my turn to shine." said the leaves.
Again, a masterpiece of our Creator.
Protected against the world.
But let it go and it will bloom on it's own.
A start of a new beginning...
