Journey
Unspoken, quiet demeanour
Utter not, timorous feelings
Deep inside, nil expressions
Of grief , brim filling
Of failure, to face anew
no growth, still ongoings
Hard headed, fail to see
one's life, never changing
Dead leaves, lost direction
autumn colours, forthcoming
Scattered wild, dare to pick
different path, way traversing
Medyo malalim...
ReplyDeletebut yes, most often we have to think and decide for ourselves...
no matter how painful, we have to change (hopefully for the better)
Nose bleed ako LMAO!
ReplyDeleteIs this your own shot Jonathan? Nice and love it!
Ang lalim naman ng tula nyo sir Jonathan. Muntik na akong ma nose bleed ehehe XD
ReplyDeleteSeriously, ang buhay ay isang paglalakbay. With every thick and thin we laughed and cried, as the road unwinds. Dapat lagi tayong maging handa at marunong lumaban sa lahat ng mga pagsubok na paparating. Kung madapa man, it doesn't mean na tapos na ang laban. Bangon lang, always look up, and follow the sun!
Hi Ric,
ReplyDeleteI am having a hard time convincing myself to get out of my comfort zone and accept change, or should I say initiate one. There are many things to do, maybe, with little steps and bold ones. I wish I can do them. Thanks for the kind words.
Hi Ms. Balut,
ReplyDeleteYes, my own shot. Sorry for the nose bleed, here's a tissue! I hope that when changes come, you will still be there, reading my blog :)
Good poem!
ReplyDeleteNami-miss ko na tuloy gumawa ng tula. Dati nuong emo days ko nakakagawa ako ng tula.
pag open ko dito.. comments kagad nila nabasa ko hehe.. at Totoo nga.. ang lalim ^_^
ReplyDeletemahirap talaga mag change sa umpisa.. dahil mas nasanay ka na sa mga nakagawian mo na. pero unti unti masasanay ka na din. at gaya nga ng sabi ni fiel.. dapat lagi din handa.
di ba nakaka bored kung lagi ka lang nasa comfort zone mo? wala nangyayaring bago hehe.
deep neto ser. basta parang tungkol sa stagnancy, tapos gusto ng bago. sorry, bagsak ako sa pag-aanalyze ng mga ganto. haha
ReplyDeleteWeeeh! Ilang ulit ko pa binasa. Ang lalim. I think I need a dictionary. Di ko alam meaning ng ibang words:)
ReplyDeleteBut I can feel the loneliness and the doubt.
You are a gifted and talented man Jonathan. I am sure na you will succeed kahit saan ka pumunta. God bless you more:)
ah eh.... ilang beses ko nibasa, ni-analyze, pakopya ko olivr! hahaha..
ReplyDeletegano ba to ka-deep? arrghhh....
minsan sabi nila sir jo, "kung anong gusto ng puso mo, sundin mo...." pero syempre minsan talaga, mahirap umalis sa comfort zone, more than nakakatakot there are other concerns for consideration.
pero... define nosebleed... hahaha.
nosebleed indeed!
ReplyDeleteHi fiel,
ReplyDeleteAlam mo at your age, laging positive ang outlook mo. I always love reading your comments to other bloggers. May substance at laging may words of encouragement. I believe your one eye persona is magnified by your wisdom and outlook in life. I salute your presence and may your constant visits be a source of needed positive energy.
Hi Ish,
ReplyDeleteHindi naman ako emo, nahihirapan lang ako to decide so writing one makes me think better, in the form of a poem. And to creative with the photo I took, the reflection was just fitting.
Hi eagleman,
ReplyDeleteTama ka naman, kung lagi na lang nasa comfort zone, hindi na exciting mabuhay. Kaya nga, nagaalangan akong kumilos at mag desisyon. Paano ba malalaman kung tama ang tatahakin? At kailan kailangang magsimula?
Hello Olivr,
ReplyDeleteParang pag akyat ng bundok, lakad ng lakad at hindi mo alam kung kailan ka makakarating sa tuktok. Kaya pa ba at kakayanin ba?
Kung hindi kasi ako aakyat ng bundok, makikita ko ba ang kagandahan ng kapaligiran? Ano naman ang mangyayari kung sakaling tahakin ko pero hindi ko naman pala kakayanin ang mga susunod na hakbang?
Ola Hermana Joy,
ReplyDeleteThanks for understanding. Tama naman ang pagkabasa mo, may loneliness and doubt. Salamat sa faith na kaya kong maging matagumpay kung ano man ang susunod kong gagawin. Oo nga habang may buhay may pag asa eh sabi mo naman gifted at talented ako, hi,hi,hi.
Hello yccos,
ReplyDeleteThe change I wanted to do concerns my current work. May posting to follow then you will see how difficult my walk will be. Siguro dumarating na ang panahon na gusto ko nang umalis sa pagtuturo, o sa Thailand pero hindi naman ako makabalik ng Pinas dahil na rin sa dami ng problema sa bahay, hay!
I wanted to be specific with my dilemma but using words that show lots of meanings. Interpretations can be different and some might even be able to relate. Change is difficult but we needed them. I intend not to let the readers and guests of my blog be intimidated by the words but rather experience a different approach in looking beyond facades.
Bawal po ang mag cheating! Alam mo yan!
Hello aboutambot,
ReplyDeleteSalamat sa e-mail at kahit minsan ka lang makadalaw, ako ay natutuwa sa iyong pagdaan. Nose bleed ba? Padalhan kita tampoons, ha,ha,ha. Joke!
wow mukang matula nanaman ngayon ah ehehe...
ReplyDeleteSer Jonathan, nice metaphor. finally, gets na. XD
ReplyDeleteNakakagutom.. nauubos mga asukal ko sa katawan sa pgintindi nito..
ReplyDeleteHello Rix,
ReplyDeleteMaulan ba kaya matula ngayong linggong ito? Huma haiku ka, tumutula ako at dumugo naman ang kanilang mga ilong, sowie pipol!
Hi Olivr,
ReplyDeleteGets nah, puwede ka nang magpa kopya kay yccos. Huwag lang kayong pahuli kay proctor, he,he,he. Thanks!
Hello kamilkshake,
ReplyDeleteAba, kung gamot pala itong pagbasa sa tula eh di nakaimbento na ako ng gagamot sa diabetes, ha,ha,ha. Salamat sa muling pagdalaw, musta na buhay buhay?
So deep naman, di maarok ang nilalaman ng iyong tula sir Jo. May ganyan akong shot din, dead tree pero ang gandang masterpiece :)
ReplyDeleteHi Gracie,
ReplyDeleteNakita ko yung tree, kinuhaan ko ng pic, na-inspire ako sa stagnancy although mayroon pa siyang mga dahon in one part, nakita ko sarili ko sa punong iyon thus the poem.
