MELVIN BANGGOLLAY Poems

Wake me up with the magic of your whispers
that echoes like music deep down to my ears;
touching me with so much delight that embroiders
my soul with happiness against my own fears.
...

Jenilyn, a woman entwined with angelic beauty,
who fabled my heart to love her at first sight
...

Keep going
and never quit
...

D-eath is an inevitable foe of life
That comes with a sting of strife
To end one's long life malady
Or give others rivers of agony
...

LOOK AT ME IN THY EYE
melvin Banggollay

Look at me in my eyes
...

Asse pion tako e umasenso
Umadayo tako asse ili tako
Urey ge no ngan se liget tako
Urey ge mansigeb da likna tako
e manenan as dahe pamilya tako
Ayu-at, anne e manaren tako.
...

Our eyes is the window
where what we behold
enters our mind's meadow
to have its glow unfold
and tingle us to show
our emotions untold.
...

In the name of love
of the mighty above,
I can bear the pain
of living in disdain
for I know that behind
this fate so unkind,
God with his grace
helps me win the race.
