Cynthia Buhain-baello Poems

The morning sun erased the dream
I tried to trace it in my mind.
But day's brightness, it just seems
To blur vague images I find.

When life's been lived, almost over,

And dreams sought for, just gone and lost.

Aba, naku! Kay daming biyaherong may bala!
Parang magic, himala, pero nakapagtataka!
Itong salaysay ng mga walang kaluluwa
Tila baga misteryo, kung totoo'y, nakakatawa!

Detached
Cocooned by lines
Unheard, unknown, unreal

Self was enthroned with delusions of Gain,
Power at all costs, devoid of dignity,
Taken at the great price of death and pain.
...

Is filled with the venom of death,
If you let it inside your house you find
It won't sit and behave, that makes you regret
...

Our world is plagued by endless chaos,
We strive to live and ride the waves,
Through strife, and conflict, sometimes loss,
We breathe, resigned to what each day gave.
...

Sunshine today came with glorious rays
Touched my skin in a warm embrace,
Contrasting the world's own eerie darkness,
Where chaos and hatred envelopes with coldness.
...

Because the land is filthy
And its people are in rebellion,
Wrong is exalted iniquity
Their minds warped in corruption.
...

Watching and seeing the events of these days,
I realize what is happening is what God's Word says.

People talk of coming peace and they keep denying,
