carpe diem.

They say desire begins with the body, but I’ve learned it can start with a sentence. There are connections that do not ask for touch. They arrive quietly—through shared ideas, unfinished thoughts, and the comfort of being understood without having to explain yourself twice. Intellectual intimacy gr...Read more

Hindi dahil wala kang pagkukulang, kundi dahil sa kabila ng lahat, may dahilan ka pa ring piliin. May mga taong kailangan mong intindihin muna bago mahalin, pero sa’yo, nauuna ang pagmamahal bago ang pag-unawa. Parang kusa kang tinatanggap ng puso, kahit hindi pa alam kung saan hahantong. Hindi ka...Read more

Is it a crime to be unsure, to stand in the middle of choices and feel the ground shift beneath your feet? The world demands answers spoken with certainty, as if doubt is a weakness and hesitation a flaw. We are taught to move fast, decide faster, and never look back—but no one teaches us how to bre...Read more

Is it better to speak, or die— not the dying of the body, but the quiet death that happens when words are swallowed too long. Because silence, when chosen once, feels safe. But silence, when chosen every day, becomes a grave you learn to decorate. I have learned how to smile while carrying whole p...Read more

Naranasan mo na ba ang magkagusto sa isang tao at tanggapin na sapat na ang pagmasdan lang siya mula sa malayo? May mga pagmamahal na hindi kailanman humihingi ng pangalan. Hindi ito kumakatok, hindi nagpapakilala, at lalong hindi humihiling na buksan ang pinto. Tahimik lamang itong umuupo sa gili...Read more

A photograph, a stolen glance, a world that shrinks to just her dance. The sunlight catches in her hair, and every thought ends up right there. Her name, a whisper on the breeze, a constant hum that brings no ease. She knows the rhythm of her feet, the coffee she prefers, so sweet. She tracks her ...Read more

I've followed every road the world has made, climbed jagged mountains, walked through shadowed glade. I've learned the rhythms of the wind and sea, but nothing ever felt like home to me. Then I saw you, a compass in your gaze, a perfect haven in this winding maze. And suddenly, the paths I used to ...Read more

In school, among busy hallways and crowded classrooms, there are always those who watch quietly, noticing every smile, every laugh, and every small gesture of the person they admire. They pay attention to details that others might overlook—the way she carefully observes her surroundings, the way she...Read more

I don’t know when it started— this quiet ache in my chest, this gentle pull toward the spaces where your name still echoes even if you’re nowhere near. Maybe it was the way you laughed that one time, like the world finally gave you permission to breathe. Or maybe it was the softness in your eyes wh...Read more

I’ve been trying to speak softly… but my heart keeps choosing the loudest language, the kind that shakes in the chest and spills out through trembling lips. Because how do you hide a feeling that keeps finding its way back no matter how many times you tell it to stop? See… some people fall in love...Read more

If loving you means losing myself, then so be it. I have already learned how easy it is to forget who I was before you—how my thoughts began to orbit around your name, how my days slowly rearranged themselves just to make room for you. I stopped asking what I needed and started measuring everything ...Read more

I wish she knew how my heart moves every time she walks into the room— how it rises, like it’s trying to meet hers halfway without my permission. I wish she knew that when she laughs, I fall a little harder, the sound landing somewhere deep inside me, in a place I didn’t know could bloom just from ...Read more
