Oscar Dhonesquil Esquilona Poems

My eyes are blurred by cotton of clouds
I'm wondering in a world that is unreal
My mind is hovering over a valley of nowhere
There is a void room with ancient design
...

Colorful World
O, Breath of the breeze from the distant west
Come, touch my hair with your sweet caress
The sun rises with you with sepia orange rays
...

It makes me red like crimson

When you tickle my side up to the bone
...

Ang Salita ng Diyos
Ay hiwaga’t buhay
Ating pakinggan,
Isapuso at isabuhay
...

Now is the time to fast, abstain from eating meat and full meals.
My stomach cries so loud, deafening my ears, I hunger so badly!
The chance to find something to fill this souring intestine is so untamed.
But when the bread appears, blinding my eyes, blocking my soul, a very enemy of mine is myself and flesh! This is a hard challenge for me, a combat I barely win!
...

'I shouted your name

you never answered
...

The years have gone so fast
No younger am I than ever
My skin has been covered by wrinkles
My body has lost its agility
...

Life on earth is so short
But more precious than silver or gold
Death will come so certain
but no one in this world knows when!
...

The memories of the past
Are reminisced now that I'm old enough
The twinkling eyes that seem so eager
With a broken smile that would stay forever
...
