transcendence


when I feel you, I remember the sun
blindingly gazing at its greatness, hurting at some
shivering off the coldness, embracing the light
soaring through the ages, lifting, emerging with calm

when i look at you, I see the moon
shining amidst the darkness of my mind
I tried to be near you, you spoke so gently
touched me softly, your smile was one of a kind

can we be? let us be, hear me whisper for a minute
we may lose our time
and for this last moment, before you take your eyes away
stare at me for the last time

tell me now if we really are one
for a second, a million, or for eons at a glance
shifting between cycles, returning back when time began
breathing slowly, discovering a lifetime of trance

A Lifetime's Worth of Education (from a Filipino Thomasian Medical Student)

...because even if you have attained the highest level or position in the medical field, you are always a student of medicine. I wrote this blog on March 10, 2006 in my yahoo 360 account as an attempt to blog about my medical life (which I failed to do). This was written days before I became a 4th year student, a medical clerk, or in the medical lingo, "the lowest life form in the hospital"... Ever since I entered medical school, my whole life turned up side down. It was like I’m adrift into the whirling pool of uncertainties. I counted every moment, every second, living it day by day. They said it would only take a short time to finish medicine, the hell with it (4 years of pre-med, 4 years of med proper, 1 year of internship, 3-5 years of residency and 1-2 years of fellowship). Partially it was true, toxicities make time fly in lightspeed. I am a 3rd year medical student at UST Faculty of Medicine and Surgery and an incoming clerk (duty starts at april 15). Whenever I remin...

Sumuka sa huni ng binibini Pasirkong lagpak sa palapag Sumambulat ang kahibangan Panahon na di mababalikan Tumimpla sa daloy ng balon Panibugho ni Adan sa Diyos Pisil ng hayop sa kalamnan Ang sugat na kinamuhian Patago sa init ng araw Umaalpas sa lamig ng bituin Idlip na animo'y bangungot Sumisilip ng walang lintik Ang talbog ng dibdib nananaginip at nagmimithi Ang mga sinaunang sarap Makamtan muli Lumabas sa unos Sa kaulapang maliwanag Pagpigil ng ngiti Lumipad ng tuluyan Umaagos ang ginto Humihiyaw ang sirena Tingin sa mga nakausad Matatahimik na

Hindi makaalpas sa sariling piitan Animo’y isang sawa sa katawan Ngunit kung lalapitan Ay isang dagok sa kaibuturan Hindi na lalaya sa mga pangarap Nahulma sa gitna ng kabataan at katarantaduhan Sumusuot sa bawat dilim ng pag aari Ang sawang gahaman Naghuhukay ng sariling lamay Sa bagal ng galaw ng buhay Masisira ang mga lahi Titigil at ikakamuhi Iniisip sa kawalan Ang mga pantasyang lumulutang Napapapikit sa saya Pagkamulat ay masagwa Kailan maaatim ang kaginhawaan Alam ko rin ang sagot sa katanungan Maaaring bukas masimulan Ang pagtigil sa sariling kalamnan
