Syl Espina Poems

Pardon my words when I speak the truth.
No matter how gentle I want to say it,
It's still painful but gives life to the word freedom.
...

Every sunrise, I set out to sail
With my head full of ideas,
And my heart full of hope.
...

Like a river flowing down the mountains,
I pass through shallow and deep gorges.

Like a flower that blooms every morning,
...

4.

Someone is making his way;
Doing the best he can everyday;
To find his one great love someday.
...

5.

When words are spoken,
Only the good ones are taken;
By the mind that is weak
And the heart that is fake.
...

If one day you get lost and confused, call me.
I promise to be there and guide you.

If one day you feel like crying, call me.
...

Life is what we make it.
That's what they say.
Live life to the fullest.
That's their aim.
...

What's the sense of learning if you don't live it out?
What's the sense of living if you don't enjoy it?
What's the sense of enjoyment if you don't feel it?
What's the sense of your feeling if you don't understand it?
...

Don't stand at my gate a minute long
If you only want to view my lawn.

Don't look through my windows
...

10.

Life has been a series of winks
From God Who straightens out kinks,
At times when I run out of ink;
And paints my canvas with pink.
...

I don't know what to think;
I don't know what will happen;
I don't know where I'll be;
But I do know how to pray.
...

When I was just a baby,
She fed me with her milk,
Sang me to sleep,
And clothed me with silk.
...

13.

Listen...
To what you hear,
About what people say,
About life and love in this world.
...

I wandered into a sacred realm one day;
Never thought that I would stay
Instead of running far, far away.
...

Every day...
I wake up to a brand new day;
Always wake up and pray
That clouds won't be gray.
...

16.

I want to write.
I want to write from the heart;
Write about love and life;
Write about right and rights.
...

Mga kababayan ko, alam mo ba?
Alam mo na ba ang balita?
Sa ibang bansa’y halaman ang gamit
Sa pagpapailaw ng kanilang tahanang marikit.
...

18.

I've got no time;
No time for you,
And no time for me.
...

Her favorite line of the day is:
'Your assignment for today is...'
And she checks it the next day
Before she begins the lesson of the day.
...

Everywhere I look,
I see faces big and small;
Some are beautiful;
Some are feeling beautiful;
...

The Best Poem Of Syl Espina

Pardon My Words

Pardon my words when I speak the truth.
No matter how gentle I want to say it,
It's still painful but gives life to the word freedom.


Pardon my words when I don't say the words you want to hear.
For not all thoughts are meant to be uttered but felt.
And not all praise are to be given as lip-service.


Pardon my words when they're Greek to you.
It's either you level up to me
Or ask me to simplify them at the very least.
That is, if you understand what communication means.


And lastly, pardon my words when they sound mellifluous.
That's because I know them.
I use only the words I know.
Words I learned on my own,
Those that were forced to be learned,
And those which represent me.
