Obed dela Cruz Poems

Glancing beyond the shiny stars
And seeing the earth as it is,
Learning more of the galaxy,
Exploring more the Milky Way
...

You may have the knowledge of Albert Einstein
And you may have the understanding of Freud
But if care, life, and love you cannot define,
You are nothing but a mere fool in this world.
...

I’ve been with you for a long time.
Your nightmare must end, and you must shine.
Too long, your people trapped you in darkness.
The world saw your stains and helplessness.
...

Obedient to what is good we should be.
Breaking bad laws help save humanity.
Ensure always that the code you possess
Does not violate right rules of fairness.

There was an age where thinkers were confused.
They argued on what theories must be used.
...

Though I fall on the bloody ground,
And my enemies all around,
And when my foes stripped my heart using a sword,
Only I can do is to cry to my Lord.
...

God, please let there be an effective revolution.
So that it may lead to this world’s transformation.
As much as possible, let it be peaceful.
Let no life be taken and let it not be dreadful.
...

I may have a room full of trophies
And a life full of discoveries
But if I don’t have love inside my heart
All that I have will soon break apart.
...

My world surely brightens when You’re here.
Sweet words enter when it’s You I hear.
Not a speck, not even a distance,
Not even space can separate us.
...

Dear Debutant,

You are no more just a girl today
You are turned to someone who can say
