caged

I tried to reach.
I tried to touch inside.
But there is something there;
It scares me.

Everytime I try,
To reach a part of him
That is secured and cautious,
He rejects me.

There is
A sleeping kitten.
A cautious kitten.
He is freindly but he chooses his friends.
Friends are filtered.

I got the chance,
To get a close encounter.
I am lucky.
I felt lucky.
I
Observe
Enjoy
Love.
But
Everytime I try,
To reach that part of him
That is secured and cautious,
He rejects me.

At far, it is a cute kitten.
I am amazed and mezmerized
that a kitten shall thrive in a man's heart
So soft and cudly.
So sweet and loveable.
I wanted to touch it;
care for it;
love it with all my being.

When I have  I tried,
To reach that part of him
That is secured and cautious,
He rejects me.

The cute little kitten growled at me.
He then turned into a beast.
I have figured out.
He is a pretentious kitten.
He is a Lion.
He is a cautious lion.
He doesn't want to be touched there.
Even if,
He fell in love with me;
He rejects me.

It scared me,
Petrify me into my place.
I know I shouldn't reach out anymore.
I know I shouldn't try to pet him.
But how can I not?
It is so irresistable
When you have fallen in love with it.

For a time, I will leave him alone.
Observe
Enjoy
Love
But still I can't touch that part.

That part,
I know,
It is wounded.
He wanted to cure it alone.
I want to be involve.
Nurse him with care.
Pet him with my touch.
Heal him with my love.
But
He still rejects me.

I am scared.
He petrifies me when he growls.
That Everytime I try,
To reach that very part of him
That is secured and cautious,
He rejects me.

Para kay Katrina


Sa konting lakad lamang ay naaabot
Ang isang mundong para lamang sa amin
Naglalaho mga makamundong kirot
Habang mga damdami’y totoo pa rin
Doon sa may Raymundo Gate, may hagdanan
May kasamang coke at ilang stick ng yosi
Konting pagmasid sa mga nagdaraan
Sa diwa naman nami’y magbubusisi
Kakalimot sa mga sakit ng ulo
Sa kalmadong ilog ay magpapaanod
Magpalamig mula sa mundong magulo
Sa katahimka’y kami’y magpalunod
Isang pusang nakahiga sa kandungan
Na nakikinig sa aking mga kwento
Sa akin may tangan na katahimikan
Pagkakaibigang kami ay kuntento
Kung ako ay may naidulot sa kanya
Bagay na hindi ko man lamang mawari
Ngunit sa ngiti n’ya ako ay masaya
At langit ko’y dinalhan ng bahaghari
