My First Birthday

Walang kamuwang-muwang.
hindi ko na rin matandaan ang nararamdaman ko noong araw na 'to. Malamang, may mga taong pilit akong pinangingiti dito kaya naman todo bigay ang ngiti ko dito. Malay ko ba kung anong okasyon 'to.

Parang ang sarap pag-tripan; hukayin sa kinasusuluk-sulukan ng aking pagkatao ang mga pakiramdam at ala-ala sa araw na ito. Ang isang sigurado ako ay ako lang ang anak ng mga magulang ko nang araw na ito. Simple lang ang buhay. Mahal na mahal ako ng aking ina at ama. Bata pa sila. Kumpleto pa kaming mag-anak.

Peor ngayon,... kami na lang ng aking mama. Matagal tagal na ring wala sa aming piling ang aking Papa. Yumao na siya noong '93.

darating ang panahon,... magiging kahawig na rin ng larawan na ito ang aking kaarawan. Nag-iisa.

Things have definitely changed.

And all the changes happen so fast that in a blink of an eye, you want to ask yourself What The FUCK happened?!?.

And so I hear again echoing in my mind that David Gates' song:

"... I would give everything I own,
To Give up my life, my heart,
my own.

I would give everything I own,
Just to Have YOU back again.
Just to touch YOU once again."

To my Mama and Papa,...

salamat.
