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.
