I’m a child wrapped in the arms of a caring sister; a sister innate in me who values life as much as the child within me. Though life may seem rigid and tough she never forgets the lady, she is. Her free-spirited, cheerful and amiable beauty radiantly excites the world around her. But when my path veered to what I thought was the one for me; I crumbled. I was stricken with grief and vexation. It made me gnaw at its merciless impact. I knew then that the first cut hurts the deepest.
My past taught me as well. So much lessons I had to keep hammering. I know I’ve a lot more work to do to try to figure out my life now. And I will. I’m working my way through it. There was a time when I vowed to never repeat the same mistakes about who I let in my life, It was very taxing and toilsome. This time, I’m taking my time to prepare myself to be my best version as well. For now, here are four of the things I want in a partner for the woman in me.
- Has his own identity; someone who never lets himself go in a relationship.
- Self-motivated
- Shares the same dreams and goals
- Committed to do the hard work
When I think about it I just can’t help but smile because I know that the road to success has just begun. It’s about time I raise the bar.
-Poem-
Afflicted by the irreconcilable past
hoisted by distrusts and fights
A boy; never loved himself
severed the so-called ties
Blame no one but ourselves
Let the heavens tremored;
plagued the land
lashed judgment
For once we were denounced
children of the flock.
Now I have fasted
Appeased the gods
from the errors that
punctured my heart
A girl; overflowed with warmth
awakened to tend her mead.
alone.
For her descendants
For their meads
For their skies
not weeds.
Time is a friend.
Setted the plains
Colored the firmament
Called the gays
To move the waves;
To lift mountains.
then, she’d soar.
Higher her perch above
overlooking the forked roads.
A composite of me and the universe
