passion before anything else - an excerpt (October 28, 2016)


It felt nice that I go with the flow


It felt good when everyone seems to not care much about what I do


It felt amazing thinking that I cannot ask for more


But I was wrong


To myself, I’m thinking.


Something is missing.


invisible - July 15, 2014


They cannot see me.

Am I too small to not be noticed?

I am trying to exist.

Why do you not allow me to co-exist with you?



It is a give-and-take situation.

It should be that way.

Let me in.

Please.


thirst - An EXCERPT (december 12, 2019)

Why do I thirst for someone to

understand my struggles


When I couldn't even grasp

the entirery of my whole being


With these struggles come

the bouts of me losing grip


When it all becomes too much

I'm falling in the cracks


that I may have made myself

for me to fall into.


About

I have been a slave of the arts for all of my life. I have been a part of the multimedia industry professionally for more than 5 years now. Coupled with my degree in the same field (BA Multimedia Studies), graduating at the University of the Philippines, I have combined theory and practice, and reality and idealism, in doing my responsibilities and roles in the companies I belonged in.


As a passion, I have written poetry, lyrics, and narratives for 12+ years now and amassed 100+ pieces in my collection.
