Katotohanan
Biglang napapahinto at natutulala
Kinukwestyon ang sarili at presensya
Katahimikan ang bumabalot sa kapaligiran
Bakit hindi pa rin matahimik ang isipan
Nalilito at nangangamba
Nadarama ay hindi mailahad
Ano na nga ba ang realidad
Ang hirap na makita
Totoo ba ang lahat
Talaga bang nandirito
Panaginip lang ata ito
Pilit naghahanap ng sagot
Pero malamig na hangin ang gigising
Pahiwatig na siya ay kapiling
Siya ang paalala at patutunguhan
Siya na tanging kasagutan at katotohanan
Liham Ni Eba
Ako ang daan, ang katotohanan,
at ang buhay.
Kamusta?
Araw-araw ay puno ng itim na ulap
At ang pakiramdam ay sumisikip
Pasikip nang pasikip
Pahirap nang pahirap
Umiiyak nang bigla
Hanggang wala nang mailuha
Umabot sa blangkong emosyon
Hindi mawari ang tensyon
Sa tuwing aahon ay hindi pa natatapos
Kailan ba ang katapusan nitong agos
Kasi nakakapagod na
Sobrang pagod na
Puno ng mga ano at bakit
Pero heto at kumakapit
Sumusubok at umaasa
Sakit ay iniinda
Siya pa ring tatanggapin
Sarili ay muli't muling iintindihin
Papaniwalaan ang lahat
Pilit magiging sapat
Liham Ni Eba
PS: Ikaw kamusta ka nga bang talaga?
Ala-ala
Hindi na maibabalik
Ang saya nung kapiling kita
Nung nandito ka sa aking tabi
Yung ako nung may tayo pa
Hindi na mangyayari
Wala ka na sa akin
Hanggang ala-ala na lang
Ala-ala ka na lamang
Liham ni Eba

"When you befriend all of you,
something profound will happen."
Becoming Myself
I used to identify myself as this and that.
So when I am changing,
I get confused and lost.
But I am rediscovering myself every time.
I am exploring the dimensions of myself.
Thus, my past self, present self and
the becoming of me are different.
I am a work in progress.
I will hate myself countless times.
But I will always accept myself.
I am in charge of myself.
And I will always choose to embrace
who I am becoming.

You are never alone. Because you have Him.
"The LORD is my shepherd;
I have all that I need."
He is watching over you.
And rejoice in your prosperity and
feel your sorrow.
He stays and never leaves you.
Just waiting for you to seek Him
every time.
"No one will stand against you
as long as you live.
For I will be with you...
I will not fail you or abandon you."
He is the strength surrounding you.
A powerful force that holds you
all together.
The reason behind everything.
"Don’t be afraid, for I am with you.
Don’t be discouraged,
for I am your God.
I will strengthen you and help you.
I will hold you up
with my victorious right hand."
He is with you.
"And be sure of this:
I am with you always,
even to the end of age."
