Sa Tahanang Mag Isa At Sa Biglaang Pag-ulan

Ang hirap pa lang nasa bahay ka lang at nag iisa. Walang makausap maliban sa sarili lamang. Nakatunganga habang kumain ng walang kasama. Tumatawa kapag may naaala. Biglang ngingiti. Biglang iisip ang mga bagay bagay simula sa nakalipas, hanggang sa mga bagay na mangyayari o gustong mangyari.

Ang nakaka inis, hindi mo makuhang mag-focus sa mga kailangan gawin habang nag iisa. Patuloy lang na nag iisip.

Ang hirap naman ng ganito. Ang... mag-isa.

Tinitignan na ako nga mga gamit dito sa bahay. Napapagod na din sila sa kaka unawa sa 'king situwasiyon. Si Donatelo naman, ang aming pagong, tahimik din. Tila walang pakialam kung mag isa lang siya.

Ang hirap naman maging pagong.

Sa wakas umulan kanina. Gusto kong maligo sa ulan... ngunit ang pangit naman ng pakiramdam kung mag isa ka lang na maligo sa ulan. Pati ba naman sa ulan mag isa ka lang?! Mas nakaka bagsak ng pakiramdam kapag mag isa ka na lang sa tahanan, at mag isa ka lang na maligo sa ulan. Masarap sa pakiramdam kapag may kasama ka. Nakikipag usap habang ang langit ang bahala sa pag linis nga iyong katawan sa nakalipas na dumi at baho ng kalooban. Kung may abilidad nga lang sana ang ulan, na kahit sa isang saglit, ay mapawi ang lahat ng kalungkutan at pagka bigo, hindi na ako maliligo gamit ang tubig ng Nawasa.

O pano, maiwan na muna kita. Tinatawag na ako ng mga libro ko para sa isang napaka halagang pagsusulit sa darating na mga araw.

*(Hikab)

Huwag sana akong makatulog.

Why Am I So Into You?

Spare me with all the glamour
I can't help but to adore your grace
Sweetness is your forte
That I would gladly embrace

Why am I so into you
Is it because you cared
Why am I so into you
Is it because the things we shared?

You're a mystery novel
I'm a puzzle
Yet we reveal ourselves
With no hudle and hassle

I feel good when I'm with you
If this would be a valid reason
I guess, I do know, now
Why am I so into you

Observing Fourteen

I went to Farmers Plaza and Gateway Mall yesterday. It seems like the business of love was purely in heightened mode. Hotels were offering discounts, fancy restaurants were full, every couple has their own way of holding their special someone with a distinct air attitude, almost all women had roses in their hands that makes you see as if they are making a statement like "Screw you singles! You all suck!" or "It's a big deal, for us girls, that guys have to give us something for valentine's day!" They were happy. And I think they were the ones who deserved to be greeted "Happy St. Valentine's Day". Or perhaps pretending to be happy.

Then there were the singles like me. I looked into their faces and saw their observations also to others. I am not alone. Some I observed were sighing, creating a fake smile when couples pass them by. While some, they don't mind at all. For them, it's just another day exploded with an event full of reds, hearts and roses.

I knew there were some people who thought and sighed, like me, and asked, "Where are you, soulmate?"

Biglang sumabay ang radiyo at nagsalita...

"it harts! it harts! yu no!"

And then followed by a song...

"Don't Stop Looking for Love" by Boyzone

Focryin'outloud! Hahahah! Nasira ang momentum kong mag observe at napakamot na lang sa ulo. =)

Oh for the life of me!

The Man Who Introduced Me To Dante And Poe

Tell me I'm not dreaming. The New York Times Best Selling Author replied to my email?! wow. Fantastic.

This was my email to him:

At 09:55 PM 1/16/2007, you wrote:

Dear Mr. Pearl,

Mabuhay!

Thank you so much for giving us two interesting books. I would never know Poe and Dante without your highly mysteriously-charged novels! I also bought The Murders In Rue Morgue for a companion reading material for the Poe Shadow. However, there is no availabilty here of your work in Inferno translated by H.W. Longfellow.

I would also like to take this oppurtunity to ask you about your coming tour (if there are any plans) here in the Philippines? When shall it be?

And I would also like to ask you if Bonjour's character was based to any characters from E.A. POE or from any historical facts? You failed to
mention her on the last few pages on the historical notes of The Poe Shadow.
Also for suggestions...

I hope you could seek and wrote a novel regarding Milton's Paradise Lost or anything about St. Thomas Aquinas.

May You be Showered with more blessings this year!

Your Admiring Reader,
Florencci A. Adona

Hello Florencci,

Thank you so much for your email, both for the kind words and taking the time to write them. I am so happy to have such a nice email from the Philippines and I do hope I will be able to visit your country. I have never been there, and although I do not have any plans yet that would allow me to visit, I hope I will in the future.

In reply to your question, Bonjour is fictional, although that type of criminal (a "Bonjourier") was real.

Again, I'm thrilled to count you as a supporter.

Yours,

Matthew
