Believe It Or Not

set me free

from all the rules

you have made 

for yourselves
i'm no longer
part of it

accept i'm gone

you have no hold

on me anymore

for so many years 

you ruled my life

i was scared

i was blind

your traditions 

dictated my world

back then 

i had no choice

now i have 

reclaimed 

my life
you can say
what you want
but

you can't

hurt me

again

Musical Monday... What Moves You?

Believe It or Not by Joey Scarbury

[Theme from TV series "The Greatest American Hero"]

"Believe it or not,
I'm walkin' on air,
I never thought I could feel so free;
Flyin' away on a wing and a pray'r,
Who could it be?
Believe it or not, it's just me.

Just like the light of new day,
It hit me from out of the blue;
Breakin' me out of the spell I was in,
Makin' all of my wishes come true. "

Out To Win The Lottery And A Case

The Philippine Charity Sweepstakes Office's Grand Lotto 6/55 remains elusive and the jackpot prize could reach as much as PHP685,000,000.00 or US$15,438,359.730 in the next draw (Saturday night). I'm crossing my fingers. I'm praying hard.

If and when I win this lottery, I wonder what I will do with more than half a billion pesos... I dare not ask my kids. LOL!

If you're wondering why I have been a little scarce lately, let's just say I have to shift from creative mentality to a legalese mindset in order to finish a very important pleading. Work...Deadline...Work...

Unfortunately, that's poetry hiatus for me. I'm going through some sort of confusion right now as far as my writing skills (if any) and style are concerned. I am leading a "double writing life," you see. I hope you all understand.

To my friends in the US, I wish you all "Happy Thanksgiving!"

To everyone, have a happy weekend!

The Magic Within

n
o 

spell or
potion  or
chant can
bring romance

into your

life

b
u
t
dreams do come true
and true love happens
let go of painful past
and open your heart
love begins when you
allow yourself to live
free of restraint or 

rules dictated upon

you by other people

it is only when you

learn to love, honor

and cherish yourself

that the magical sparkle

of love truly glistens

it is only then that

your own inner light

shall shine brightly

opening up yourself 

to a beautiful and 

powerful connection 

with another human 

............being.............

"Loving yourself is the best way to learn how to love."

"There's a spark of magic in your eyes
Candyland appears each time you smile
Never thought that fairy tales came true
But they come true when I'm near you

You're a genie in disguise
Full of wonder and surprise and...

 Betcha by golly wow
You're the one that I've been waiting for... forever
And ever will my love for you keep growing strong
Keep growing strong...."
