Yeah, like I've seen your mind. Basahin mo na lang as this: ang fishing mo! Heh. If what I've seen isn't powerful, and empathic, I don't know what is. Well, that's a cliche but I don't know how else to put it right now. Lose the power of your soul you did not. Weakened, perhaps. Asleep like a dragon, perhaps. Hidden like the bigger part of an iceberg, perhaps. You will always be you. Even with change. You've move on, have you not? You lie!!

Yeah, like I’ve seen your mind.

Basahin mo na lang as this: ang fishing mo! Heh.

You will always be you. Even with change.

You’ve move on, have you not?

better..because when I write, something is lacking. unlike in the years past, when I can stay up all night long in a furious assault on the keyboard, now it all comes in spurts. most of the time i am uninspired, a stark contrast to the past, when pain fueled my creativity.

again, true writing isn’t forced, true poetry isn’t a trickle.
