☞ Society disapproves (Tercet)

Built a façade for everyone's satisfaction
John's withered by their expectations
Just as he stops to unfold Janine by fashion

His parents convince him to come out of his rebellion
Yet society seemed to dictate who he's supposed to be
To desire for femininity's will always be a rebellion

Like being cage with no escaped
Unhappiness stabs him as he breathes
He just wants his eyes to forever be shut

And so the temptress gave in to urges
Opted to engage in an affair to never be discovered
For it shall mark the time to shame his nuisances

Although careful no secrets hide for eternity
Soon his secrets dishonor society
And so his beau too ashamed to even keep his company

And so John's again left alone with much more emptiness
This time with the frown upon from those who adored him
Unjust for his happiness needs no harm, yet hunted him like a curse

And so for the last time, he wore his red silky dress
His lips lustrously crimson expels a weary sigh
His eyes shine until it finally forever shut unexpressed

Upon the arrival of his faith to people's, no regret was sounded
Instead of remorse, people applauded
For they believed God has arrived for the sinful to be punished.

SHS SERIES: What’s like to be a Grade 11 in FEU-NRMF (Philippines) Part 1 (First Semester) Summer of 2016 was nerve wrecking for me.

And I would end up in the same websites with nothing but uncertainty. I gained nothing but a memory of the subjects for Senior High School curriculum. I failed to determine how difficult the subject was. I failed to see what lies beyond those curriculums. Because there was no article, no testimonials. Two months of waiting felt like forever. Hence, I decided to finally post a blog. I may seem a bit too late. Since the second batch of Grade 11 students already finished their school year. And I was already through with Twelfth Grade which would be another story. Yet I failed to find blog entries of my batch mates and the incoming batch. All I see was complai...

Cinderella Syndrome (Parody)

Be warned because this contains scenes that would make you see the tale of Cinderella in a different perspective. Gone is the lovely and charming Cinderella. Only what is left will find out as you read along her fairy tale turned in to something else. In a far-far away, there was a lovely couple with a dashing child named Cinderella. She was blessed to have loving parents. Soon, life came crushing upon her when her father cheated. Her mother could not take, she took her own life. For her, her life was a living hell. She blamed her evil step mother for it. Her stepmother was selfish she wanted to keep the wealth for her and her daughters. Her stepmother put poison on her father's drink. She knew he would be the only one permitted to drink from that golden cup, it was a gift of her mother from their wedding. Her father desperately pounded his chest, as he struggled to catch some air. His lips turned blue, and his eyes were bloodshot red. His breathing ragged...

A Mother's Nostalgia (Cinquian)

Weeping Pain grew stronger Like motherhood kills her Yet her baby's voice strengthens and Calls her Mother's Raising a child Felt like a set to fail Her hands are tired and wrinkled Yet smiles Sadness Invades her heart As her child grows further Mother's heart shatters in farewell,  Free her Longing Rest upon her As her child leaves her home Praying in silence for her child To stay Weakened By her sickness Yet still worries for child Be unmothered forever with  Old age
