First try ko lang tong gumawa ng poem, sensya na..


Are you still here?

You do not exist.
The masses pass by feigning concern
Then turn their back to you
As if you weren’t there.


You spend everyday waiting for recognition
Waiting for the first flicker of light
Into the void of your despair

Indifferent people fill the city with shadows
But do not let yourself become part of the shadows
Scream, rage and torment!
Strike the citadel’s walls of mediocrity
Do not disappear without a word, a parting shot


It may be futile but take comfort
That you have never lain down to take it all
Let them know that you are yourself. Here. Now.
Is anyone out there?
Can you hear me?
