by Princess Lourince Luz I've been keeping that Since last month. The confession I never put in front For you may reject it Because of someone. You have your moon While I'm just a sun Then suddenly sky's appear Causing hotness to disappear I was drowned with thoughts You never know you caused I was again defeated by my own Letting my emotions eat me whole I'm always afraid to take a step To try to fight, and ended up to escape Silence is my safest place But after a long long duel with myself I now decided to take a risk Settled to speak up for myself To put voice in every words You may not reciprocate what I feel But at least, no regrets 'cause I spilled And yes!

One of my favorite things Mama says is, "We may not have a lot of money, but we're rich in love!" And it's true! Even though things can be tough sometimes, we are always happy together. Here's m...
by Meriam B. Magdaong I sat down rethinking of my life; I saw you by the window. You are laughing with your friends as you pass by. You look so happy and free. Your smile reaches your eyes. I always thought my life is dull, and all black and white, but you give color to it. I thought I was always a failure, not until you saw the best in me. Ever since we met, I’ve been so happy, I feel seen and appreciated. But of course, again, life is not all rainbows and unicorns. We can’t be happy all the time. I was torn between choosing you and the life they chose for me. I couldn’t disobey them. They’ve planned it from the start. They said it was the best for me. I chose them, Afterall, they are my family. I left you hanging, without saying anything. Years had passed, I saw you again. You are laughing with your friends, but you are not the same as before.
