As I begin my life-long journey with this platform, let me introduce my forever-love kind of art—POETRY.
Bata pa 'lang ako noong nagstart ako magsulat ng mga tula. Minsan feeling ko frustrated writer lang ako. (Kahit hanggang ngayon naman, haha!)
May mga time na tinalikuran ko na ang pagsusulat. But then I realized, siguro it's not right to give up the kind of man that I used to. Out of all the failures and rejections that I went through, siguro wala nang mas hahapdi at sasakit pa sa pagkakataong pati ang sarili ko—sariling pangarap, gusto, sukuan ko na.
So here I am now. Expressing myself in writing. Again.
Not everyone knows about this side of me. Di ko naman sila masisisi. Kasi, never naman akong naging proud sa sarili kong sulat. I just write. It makes the pain inside of me fade, somehow. Nagsusulat lang ako noon for my own benefit. For my own relief.
Pero ngayon, I want to step up. To inspire someone and to be inspired by others as well.
So ngayon palang, I want to extend my gratitude to all people who'll spare some time para tumambay dito. At samahan ako sa journey ko na 'to.
The first poem, entitled "FOR HER" was actually a LOVE LETTER dedicated to my special someone whom I dearly love. It described how it felt to have someone who loves you at your darkest. 'Yung minahal ka kahit di ka naman kamahal-mahal. And though we didn't end up together, I believed that the lesson I gained can help me get through with my future pursues.
