Lumière

In a night full of darkness, He is there standing feeling relentless. He is full of deep thoughts. “Where Am I? Where should I go?” He try to step forward, But it seems everything was just blurred. He is full of deep thoughts. “What should I do? Where I want to be?” He decided to walk and walk and walk, It's still dark. He is full of deep thoughts. “I will go until I saw a light”. He is sweating, he is hungry But he didn't bother a little thing He is full of deep thoughts “I can make through it. I'll prove it.” One step, two step, three step, O' goodness gracious is that it? The light he’s been waiting for? A smile drew to his face. He doesn't run. He just walk towards the light. His smile is bigger than what you think. “Thank the heavens above” He's there. He's there at the light. He clasps his hands together. He took a deep breathe “I believed. So I made it.” He saw a huge crowd Cheering out loud. The smile of his pals, Made a colorless thing stream down his face. In a night full of darkness, He is there standing with his brothers. Not feeling relentless but feeling satisfied At the end, He's still breathing & lively as ever. "Darkness may exist once more. It doesn't matter. As long as I walk with you, we will both see our Lumière again.” - Cristine D.T

Kinalakhang Halakhak

Pumutak ang hukbo ng nagbabarakong uwak, umalulong ang tribo ng nagtatagong lobo, umangil ang pulutong ng makapangyarihang tigre, pumagaspas ang pakpak ng naghuhuyong na buwitre Sukbit katikasang mapangahas sa kalikasan Halik ng halimaw umaalingawngaw Huling butil ng pag-asang marapat masalansan Sa talas ng bolo, 'wag hayaang manakaw Mag-iingat bantay-salakay aali-aligid Kuwebang teritoryo, ipaglaban masugid Mapanglaw na gabi'y tyansang ipamalas Rutang ati'y kailanman marapat mabagtas Bagamat tumatahol mga kumakaripas na aso Ating huni'y magsisilbing mangangaso Kinalakang halakhak ipagmalaki't ipagsigawan Sa mundong mapanglaw, maging kaliwanagan Kapwa taga-nayon, may munting paalala Bangis ng ninoma'y walang talab sa pala Ng ating katapanga'y ialay para sa nayon Pagiging makabayan 'wag ihagis, 'wag itapon -Mark Justin Santos

My Nila

Learning about you is a blessing Visiting you is consummate I saw my beloved land in the making You lead the invaders to their forfeit You educate that not because your small It already means you're useless But because of your dark brown stake You are rivals with the conglomerate Your young leaves are coated with the varnish like substance They are broad and drop shaped But they are fixed in opposite sides You may be waiting for something Believing it will not come at all But believe me your fruits will be buoyant and ripe When the right time falls My dearest nila Don't lose hope on your people My cherished Pinoys Don't forget our nila -Rose Jazmine Reyes

My mind is a prison

A land made of steel and iron bars. A home for the devil with monsters in chains held by his hand, waiting to be released. I can hear their screams. I can hear their claws against my brain, the thumping of their feet against my skull. I can hear their ballistic threats, the snapping of their fangs, I can feel their bloodlust. I can hear their protests, wanting to be unleashed. Tonight, I let them. I lowered my defenses down and let them tear the gates apart. I let my barriers crumble to the ground, I heard the clanging of metals against metals as they run, colliding against each other, destroying everything in their path. I let my demons satiate their hunger. I let them cling and feed onto my skin. I let them suck the life out of me until my veins feel like sandpapers and my tongue, an arid desert. I let them consume me. I let them take control of my whole being like a ragdoll held by a madman. I can feel my hand moving by their will. I am writing in silver pen with ink coming out red. I watch my blood flow out of my body, slowly staining my silk white dress, crimson. I can feel my heart beat ceasing, my vision darkening. I can feel my knees starting to weaken as it slowly kiss the bathroom floor. With trembling lips and shaky hands, I welcome the numbness that is setting. I can feel my senses faltering. And that is when the devil gave his last cry, "SURVIVE" -Nicole Herrera

Kapital M-A-N-I-L-A

Maynila ba kamo? Hah! Eto lang naman ang bayang Kinagisan ko, Di man ako lumaki gaya ng lolo ko maynila naman ang puso ng batang ‘to Teka?, bakit nga ba natin ‘to pinaguusapan? Ano ba ang aking pinaglalaban madali lang naman itong sundan ang sa akin lang naman: Dito maraming tao, madalas makakabangga mo na lang ang kung sino sino Masarap tumambay sa kainang nagpapasigla ng buhay . May trabaho na pag hindi mo sineryoso ewan ko na lang kung saan ang bagsak mo. May eskwelahan doon, mayroon din dito, Ibat’t ibang tao iisang lengguwahe ang maririnig mo rito Tatapusin ko na ang tulang ‘to sa katagang di kasalanan ang magpakasaya hanggang sa lumutang pero wag mong kailmutang marami pa ring dapat lagyan ng harang. -Shane Domingo
