Sherwin Balbuena Poems

When a flower's petal falls to the ground
It will never return for time is bound
To follow the path with one direction,
Like one-lane road, to prevent collision
...

Hold my hand, my Princess,
As we step on this grey ground
Where a clear line passes
Separating ill and sound.
...

Nature can be expressed in terms of math
'Tis full of quantities and relations
Bounded by the law of interactions
Endpoint implies our dream; segment, our path
...

Struggle is our twin

who treads with us,
...

I opened my eyes and saw

an unfamiliar place. The noon
...

Force that keeps the Earth in orbit
Around the Sun.
Nobody has ever seen it
Until the line
...

Get a pencil
and a canvas,
and draw these:
...

On a sand less stepped on
by many, I drew a square
whose side is twice my height.
I lay on my back in that square
...

Brighter than the most powerful star
At this time of the clone of the day -
The night in which children want to play
On streets where nothing would ever mar
...

My memory tells
about your happy school days
as seen in your smile
...
