Strokes on Canvass


Strokes on canvass
Keeping in touch with your eyes
Loving you was one thing
No, it seemed to be everything.

Strokes on canvass
Why have you left so fast?
Never thought you would come
Never knew you’d also be gone.

Strokes on canvass
So colorful it was
Textures of temperament,
To do the can and cannot.

Strokes on canvass
You have shown me paradise
Lucky was I at your side
Making colors last alive.

Strokes on canvass
May you not forget our past?
It’s a simple thought
That we had our insight

Strokes on canvass
Oh, I adore you
I never knew I do
But this time I’ll tell you.

Strokes on canvass
Whatever you do
As long as it makes you happy,
I’m happy too.

Strokes on canvass
A display of love that lasts
A scene that I won’t forget
Was when our love was felt.

Strokes on canvass
However, I don’t know if you knew
How much my heart yearns for you,
But maybe time will show you.

Strokes on canvass
I can’t speak loud about my feelings
Because I am bothered with other things
Maybe it’s not yet time, you’re not yet mine.

Strokes on canvass
I might love you once
However, I will now bid good bye
For I can’t take it inside

Strokes on canvass
I’m afraid, you won’t understand
I’m afraid, you won’t love me back
For love is my only weapon.

Strokes on canvass
As long as I can see you
I am happy and overjoyed
Though tears would be heard from my voice

Strokes on canvass
I have given you much time
And now, the time is mine
To see things which are signs

Strokes on canvass
Please look back at me
So you can set me free
From hurt and you will see.

Strokes on canvass
I can’t say it to you
But I really love the way you look
And smile, laugh and even smug

Strokes on canvass
Whatever your strokes may be
I can’t be there for you
Because I have my own life too

Strokes on canvass
Good byes are not really the last
But as of now, let this moment last
And I’ll be happy to be in your past.

Strokes on canvass
Your journey never ends
But my love for you would now tell
That I have loved you but not anymore

           May matatag na kaugnayan at pakikipagtalaban ang tao sa isa’t isa na makikita sa lipunan kung saan binabalangkas ang pakikipagsapalaran ng tao sa isa’t isa habang isinasatupad ang kanilang pagdirito ngunit ang talabang ito ay maaaring mapangwasak o hindi na naaayon sa pagkilala at paggamit ng potensiya ng bawat indibiduwal. Mapangwasak ito kung ginagamit na kasangkapan ang ibang nagpepresensiya sa pagsisikap na isatupad ang kanilang sarili. Nakita ng grupo ang ganitong uri ng mapangwasak na talaban sa magkaalinsabay na malinaw at malabong kahirapan na nararanasan ng mga matatanda sa Camillus Medhaven at sa papel na ito ay nais talakayin naman ang parehong paksa ngunit sa ibang anggulo.             Naging interesanteng paksa ng talakayan ang sitwasyong kinabibilangan ng mga matatanda. Habang nagpepresensiya ang mga matatanda sa lipunan kasama ng ibang mga taong nagpepresensiya, posible...

In the realm of love

It is so hard for us to trust someone or give love to someone or somebody because we always seek requirements. “Hindi tayo sanay sa pag-ibig na walang kapalit.” That’s why we need to pry open this economy of exchange to realize the impossible. In seeing the love that requires the return of love, we already objectify love. Objectifying love gives love limits and making that love not love after all. That is also why; it is only through the conditional that we can experience the unconditional. Pure love is a gift, and when we talk of a gift, it is always already given. Someone doesn’t need to deserve it for it to be given, it is just given. There are no steps to pure love because when there are steps, we are getting back to an economy of exchange. In giving any gift, in our case, not just any other material gift, we need to step out and go beyond the margins, beyond our limits. The conditionality of things allows us to have a glimpse of the unconditional. Risking might make us...

TAO SA KALIKASAN: KAIBIGAN O KAAWAY?

Image
                Sa trahedyang kinakaharap, ano nga ba ang maaari nating asahan kung ang ating mundo ay hindi na natin sinasabayan? Matapos pagmuni-munihan sa ulat ng pangkat ang pananaw ukol sa hindi sabayang pag-unlad ng tao at kalikasan at sa salik na “Prosperity without Growth” ni Tim Jackson, nais ng papel na ito na bigyan ng mas malalim na pilosopikong pagmumuni-muni ukol sa paksa. Nakatuon ang kabuuan ng papel na ito sa tao at kung ano nga ba ang ginagampanan niya sa isyung ito.             Ano o sino nga ba ang pangunahing dahilan ng lahat ng kaguluhan na nangyayari ngayon sa mundo? Sino pa kundi ang tao. Tayo mismo ang dahilan ng problema. Sa patuloy na paghahangad ng tao na makaangat sa iba, dinadala nito ang tao sa pagiging dahilan ng iba pang mga sakuna, magsimula na lang sa pang-industriyang pananamantala sa mga likas na yaman ng mundo. Ang mahirap sa tao, hindi siya marun...
