Uncalled Endings

Wednesday, July 1, 2009

The longer time I stay here,

All the more I become far away from my friends

This real toxic work cushioned me in a wall that my eyes are the only organs that could witness

Those horrendous things happening to me


People are slowly drifting away or falling from my hands

I don’t want my irreplaceable gems

Morphed like pebbles and sands

Please…don’t leave my side


Tireless worker, I am, pounding 15 hours a day

Puffing from cigar an angry gesture in the air

All I want now is my friend’s presence

What my work have done is to build walls of separation


I want to take hold of my decision

That I will be in a place where my talents are in full use

But clear reasons not to stay abound my way

A work with no play-mates is morbid


Should I take the move to jump out of the ship?

Or simply let things the way they were

‘Coz I will learn how to be used to it

But no please no, I don’t want to drag myself just to do work


I am Christopher and I am me

I am searching for a place where I could best be me

Would this be the company near the onomatopoeic MRT

Or it’s just under the mango tree with Matell, Jaime and me

Ei, im just curious, why did you use that photo to accompany this post? Anyway, your post reveals much of yourself. Mango tree? I'd prefer along the air strip here in ecija, overlooking a vast ricefield. =)
