In the Silence of the Frame



We’ve never met—not in the way
the wind meets leaves, or hands find hands.
Yet through poetry and photographs,
I glimpse a world my heart understands.

A stranger bends to light and shadow,
 capturing silence in golden skies.
I write of woods, dusk, and solitude —
his art responds, though unaware of my eyes.

His lens leans close to the effect of lights:
from the sky to waters, and the structures beneath.
I linger in the quiet spaces,
where admiration hides in gentle delight.

He knows I love the sun’s descent,
how it spills secrets across the sky.
And when I see that amber stillness,
I wonder if it speaks to me too.

No declarations, no confessions—
just verses left like fallen leaves.
And in return, his photographs
echo something my heart believes.

So here I stay, behind the screen,
where art and nature intertwine.
In the silence of the frame, I dwell—
a stranger moved, yet quietly aligned.

Sa Lilim ng Bandila

AI image

Sa lilim ng bandila, may sugat ang dangal,  
Ang hustisya’y nililimos sa bulsa ng hangal.  
Ang batas ay papel na nilalamukos,  
Habang ang makapangyarihan ay patuloy sa pang-aabuso.  

Sa bawat proyekto, may patong na lihim,  
Ang daan ay ginto—pero hindi para sa atin.  
Ang dukha’y naglalakad sa baha ng pangako,  
Habang ang may trono’y nalulunod sa pera at luho.  

May mga pangalan sa balita, paulit-ulit,  
Ngunit tila ba sila’y may balat-kaliskis.  
Ang kaso’y nabubulok sa silid ng paglimot,  
At ang katotohanan ay binibili ng salapi’t takot.  

Ngunit sa kabila ng dilim, may tinig na bumabangon—  
Tinig ng ina, ng magsasaka, ng kabataang pumipiglas  
Sa tanikala ng takot, ng tanong na walang sagot,  
Ng pag-asang pilit inaagaw ng mga tuso’t salot.  

Isang araw, ang bandila’y muling itataas  
Hindi sa palasyo, kundi sa puso ng masa.  
Ang katiwalian ay susuko sa liwanag,
At ang bayan ay babangon, muling magkakaisa...

English Version:


“Beneath the Flag’s Shadow”

Beneath the flag’s shadow, honor bleeds,  
Justice begs in the pockets of fools.  
The law like paper, crumpled and tossed,  
While the powerful leap without cost.  

Each project hides a secret fee, 
The roads paved in gold—but not for you and me.  
The poor walk through mud made of promises,  
While the throne drinks deep in indulgences.  

Names mentioned in the news like a curse,  
Yet they wear scales, immune to worse.  
Cases rot in rooms of forgetting,  
Truth is sold to fear and betting.  

But beyond the dark, a voice begins—  
A mother’s cry, a farmer’s hymn,  
The youth who cast away their chains,  
And hope that thieves cannot contain.  

One day, the flag will rise again,  
Not in palaces, but in the hearts of men.  
Corruption will kneel before the light,  
And the nation will rise—whole, upright.

My Star

I gaze through the lens, 
I thought you were a star.
Your love touches my eyes, reaching me, 
touches life, outlining your presence in me.
Your warmth never burns, 
your hug glows inside me.
Your brightness is subtle, impressive,
 a love that knows no distance.
You speak through my heart 
without even opening your lips.
We consummated our longing 
Every time the world darkens.
You are humble enough 
to reach me beyond the expanse, 
telling me there is something
 rather than nothing.
I then realized that you saw me before 
Or is it I who saw you?
Every night, our future meets from a distant past.
I wonder if you are still there.

Mine ...

📷 image credits https://www.picswe.com/pics/tear-wallpaper-35.html

Dewdrops fall as the tears through my cheek rolls...

How can I set you free, when I know you still have me...

How can I make you see..how much you mean to me...

I am thee, thou are mine.

But we can see how hard for our minds...

how painful for our hearts...

knowing we couldn't be MINE...
