Haiku Poem Collection

My say of things for YOU:





I’m thinking of You

Your smile, your eyes and your lips

Keeps me living through





Let’s spend more, more time

Coz I miss you everyday

Sweet baby of mine






When I’m in your arms,

Problems go; I feel your warmth

And I’m far from harm





With you, I’m secure

Our trust and love will endure

Through time, I’ll be pure






Promise, I’ll be true

When in doubt; I’ll stand by You

Please don’t leave me too.

Open Arms- Tracy Chapman

Perhaps I've listened to this song for the nth time, I can't count it anymore. It is just sooo meaningful- it's for YOU.

If love is what you want
Baby here I am
If tenderness is what you need
Ive got that to give
If you need some affection
Baby these are open arms
Open arms open arms open arms open arms
You come hem youve had a hard day
Every door you tried to open
Was closing in your face
Im right here Ill be right here
Ill embrace you

Ill be open with my heart
Ill let you in
Ill be open with my thoughts
Ill be your best friend
If you need some attention
Baby these are open arms
Open arms open arms open arms open arms

Every corner you turn
Trouble come your way
But when you get home
Ill try to be there
And Ill embrace you

These are
These are
These are
Open arms

If time is what you need
Baby Ill stop the clocks
If youre looking for something
Maybe Ive got what you want
If theres one thing to remember
Dont forget that these are open arms
Open arms open arms open arms open arms

These are
These are
These are
Open arms

Spotlight's on: Tracy Chapman

Tracy Chapman is a great artist. Even if you might think I'm biased here, she's got the Grammys to prove it, alright?



Here:

1989- Grammy Award for Best New Artist

1989- Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance for "Fast Car"

1989- Grammy Award for Best Contemporary Folk Album

1997- Grammy Award for Best Rock Song for "Give Me One Reason"

But what's more compelling aside from all of that is the award given to her by Tufts (the University she went to) with an Honorary Degree of Doctor of Fine Arts to appreciate her efforts on social and artistic works.

So aren't you convinced yet? Better listen and if you still don't like her music, what are you?

Durhan Beach Resort

Last September 6, 2009 was our quarterly company outing. I woke up early--- call time was 7:00 am, reached M-bank Plaza with anticipation that I maybe the last to board the bus. But nobody's in sight, I found out that almost everyone is late. Tsk, tsk

That day's company outing was headed towards Durhan Beach Resort, located at the northern part of Cebu which is Tabuelan. I sat at the back with Sheila and the gang:

Ocean view when we arrived. There was a tropical depression somewhere so the water's somewhat murky:





The writer's room was on the 2nd floor.



Lunch was lechon and plenty of other mouth-watering menus.




Hospitality from the Durhan staff should be commended. They served, and served us right.


A program followed:







Contender of the Singing Contest from the Writing Team. Toinks:

The morning of the following day, we packed and boarded this bus:




Jake was his usual self- restless and clowning:




I'd say the Outing was fun and relaxing!

Farewell, Sucker!

Once again, I sucked at it
I handled it badly and now I'm on the brink of despair again
Just what is that damn formula for a relationship to last?
I thought I was more than ready,
But I sucked and there is no escaping it
I have to face it fair and square;
I must accept that I failed- again
And although I am hurting and so disappointed,
I find solace in the thought that I won't be wrecking havoc once more
Because I'm letting go
I'm letting go now that there is still a sense of respect left,
No matter how my heart entraps me-
I have to force myself to look the other way
Through this, no more pain, shame and torment will shatter both our hearts.

Be Careful of My Heart – Tracy Chapman

You and your sweet smile
You and all your tantalizing ways
You and your honey lips
You and all the sweet things that they say
You and your wild wild ways
One day you just up and walked away

You felt me hurting
But I can forgive you for that now
You taught me something
Something took me half my life to learn
When you give all yourself away
Just tell them to be careful of your heart

Be careful of my heart
Be careful of this heart of mine
Be careful of my heart
heart
I just might break and send some splitters flying
Be careful of my heart
heart
Be careful

You you you
You you you
You you you
Took my love
Thought you took it all

You you you
You you you
You you you
Took my love
And now you're gone

But I'm not breaking down
And I'm not falling apart
I just lost a little faith
When you broke my heart
Given a chance
I might try it again
But I wouldn't risk it all this time

I'd save
A little love for myself
Enough for my heart to mend
A little love for myself
One day I just might love again
One day some sweet smile might turn my heart
One day I just might give all myself away
One day
One day
One day

Ironic Life

I’ve realised how life can really play games on you
If today, you are feeling total bliss, you will never know
What tomorrow will bring
If right now, you are singing this tune:

“I'm gonna be the love that's gonna last
And be the one that got your back
Ain't nothing ever that bad that we won't be together
And though we both made our mistakes
And some we never wish we made
But we'll be okay if we just stay together”

Without any clue that the next day will bring you:

“I need to know girl where do we go from here
Now that it's all up in the atmosphere
I found out that you cheated on me
Like I cheated on you with her
Now we're even what happens from here

Girl I'll break my pride and say this
I know that we both crossed forbidden ranges
Let's take our time
Don't cross the river
Back to the place we begun”

So, we just have to be content on what’s at hand
And what’s handed down to us this very minute,
Whether to bask in happiness, or struggle with pain
Holding on is really life's profound meaning.
