Was I Asking For Too Much?

I never asked you to love me back. I just wanted you to know I'm alive...that I actually care for you like I've never cared for anyone.

I never asked you to put your arms around me. I merely wanted some kind of comfort...comfort after my lonesome realization that you will never ever be mine.

I never asked you to kiss me back. I only wanted to taste those lips of yours that some other man is probably kissing at this very moment.

I never asked for your company. I just wanted you to turn your back and leave me before I fall too hard that leaving and forgetting would already be too much of an effort.

I never asked you to fathom the depths of my emotions for you. I merely wanted you to stay put and feel it.

I never asked for you to leave him. I only wanted a piece of your time. Just a little bit of it

Leave now. Before it's too late.

The following are just some of my poems, essays, prose, etc., which I have written throughout my interesting-at-one-time-and-then-boring-the-next lifetime. All these works are, proud to say, original.

Most are old postings (which explains the old date stamp) that I have salvaged from my now defunct homepage. I will--God knows when and how--start writing again. New ones will have updated time and date stamps.

For now...enjoy.

generally misunderstood, i am the proverbial "mentos" persona: crunchy/strong on the outside, soft and chewy on the inside. i speak my mind, and articulate my emotions...within bounds of tact, but never sugar-coated or "pa-tweetums". i am determined to be more patient by the day, although i'm still struggling to emancipate myself from a possible hero complex. i practice "isusubo ko na lang, ibibigay ko pa sa iba" to a fault. i dance like nobody's watching...or as if everybody is watching. i pray like a saint, but cuss like a truck driver. i comfortably transform from corporate formal to society papparazzi-worthy to kanto jologs/barok. i have been branded a "flirt" and a "tease"...and i never contradict.
