FEELINGS ON PAPER FOR YOU.
haha hey bloggies. back again... anyways, i looked through some of the folders on the com. then i found this poem that i wrote the night i recieved the bad news that my uncle died. yeah. my mom was about to fly to the phils to be there at the last moments of his life. but i guess time waits for no one.
it was 2 years ago.
i woke up in the middle of the night. to my house phone ringing and thought to myself,
'who could be calling us at this time?' then after i asked myself that, i think somewhere inside of me knew it was something bad. i picked up the phone, and on the other line, my mama lerma. sobbing. and told me to call my mom. i jumped up. ran to tell my mom. for a person who just woke up, the NEWS, cause my body to react so quickly. so i told my mom.
immediately she ran to the phone, my dad beside her now, he held her. and when i saw tears come down my mother's eyes. i sat on my bed, took out my song book and started writing. writing on the spot. just letting my feelings flow through my hands and on the paper. but i didn't write a song, i wrote a poem.
i wrote 2 actually, after i wrote them, i felt so much better.
so this is the first poem i wrote. this was actually for my grandpa, and my other uncle who passed on years ago.
It’s time to say goodbye I guess
Your untimely death in eternity you rest.
At peace with the lord you will be…
Paradise you shall finally see.
Although separated physically,
But in these hearts you will forever be.
Memories of you etched in many minds,
Even if many years past by.
When you were alive, you were a good daddy
Catering to your every child’s needs
You tried your very best to support your family,
Making sure that they lived happily.
That’s how you would be remembered exactly,
By your dear, dear family,
Forever loved, forever cherished
we are gonna miss you always…
okay i could find my other poem cause apparently my mom left that poem in my uncle's coffin, with him, amongst the roses.
♥xoxo, jo baby(:
