For #MC2021: Where I Belong
I really like my home. It has everything I need
I wonder how long it would take me
to find my way home again
This pain that I feel, it’s temporary.
A reminder that existence is like a swan singing and ticking time bombs
Is this where life takes me?
Carefully, I picked out the words I wished to say
Then knocked when I couldn’t wait anymore
You are not defined by your mistakes
The duality of it all, will either lift you high or drag you down
And maybe the universe is unfair that way.
The knocking will never stop
You are led back to where you belong
Quickly and soon enough
I have found my fireflies and they have brought me home.
Everyone who saw me greeted me with a happy smile.
For the first time in many years, I felt tranquility
For as long as I do not fail to forget,
this abandoned house will always be my home.

Para sa #MC2021: Uuwi Pa Rin
Napapaisip ako kung bakit ko ba ito kailangang maranasan.
Tapos na ang ating kwento,
Tapos na ang ating dula.
Inaalala ang mga bawat sandali.
Tatlong bahay ang nilipatan sa loob ng labintatlong taon.
Maraming alaala ang nailagay sa dating walang lamang kahon
Para sa akin napakahalaga ng lugar na ito
Magkakasama sa lungkot at ligaya, ehemplo ang bawat isa.
Paikot-ikot, para tayong mga gulong
...may tulala, tahimik, umiiyak, nakangiti, nagtatawanan, nagdadalamhati, at galit.
Humakbang palabas ng silid
Habang tumatagal,
Lumalayo ako sa realidad
Natatakot
At
Natatakot
At aking na
At sa gitna ng dilim at lungkot ng gabi,
At
Katatagpuin natin ang mga bituin
Habambuhay, ating pagkahabi ang pipiliin
Yakap ng bahay ay hindi mapapantayan.
Sa pagbuhos ng mga bagyo’t ulan,
Nanatiling matatag mula sa kinatatayuan.
...dito ako dinala
Ng aking sariling mga paa
“Kahit saan tumungo, ako’y uuwi pa rin.”
