in (between) love


I am in love with the thought of the calmness of things
Of the rhythm of the raindrops,
dripping blue in a street’s pavement
of the gray sky turning cold
Astray with the moment clashed by its own fingers
It ended.

I am in love with a brush of skin,
And the perfectly crafted arrangements
Of features
So perfect they must have been carved
By some kind of divinity.
Iridescent eyes revealing
iridescent souls are so
intoxicating to me.

I am in love with my fingers glazed upon the midnight
Of not knowing what tomorrow is
Concept. Idea. Confusion.
Tomorrow is a sigh of knowing…
Drenched between the glimpse of today and destiny

I am in love with the fall of summer rain,
And the slow, burning death of last month’s tears,
And the misted twilight of rainy days.
The colours, so sublime, are entwined
Amongst the days
In which life lives.

I am caught breathless by beauty
In all things,
And all people,
And this love scents my tears,
And secretes my smiles.

And I think that perhaps,
I am in love with beautiful things,
Because I have none of my own
To savour…
Or to keep.

Don't Sweat the Small Stuff:Jan 16' #ReadingStash

Don't Sweat the Small Stuff: Omnibus Special Edition (Don't Sweat the Small Stuffs,  DSTSS at Work and  DSTSS about Money) After a boring day at the pad, i met up with my best friend (call her halfsies) over our traditional coffee and junk food session- which takes about 2-4 hours max, i was very glad she was back in the city coz i truly missed her. Anyway, after our our session we randomly decided to go the bookstore near my place to check out books - we never really planned to buy anything but lo and behold one book literally shined - and this is the book by Richard Carlson "Dont Sweat the Small Stuff", so i decided to buy it. Within an hour of reading the book, i was already feeling the aura of changing stuffs in my life, can you believe it that within an hour i was so damned into the book that i read 100 pages of it. God it so good. So i'll just leave it her, just so if anyone of you wants to ask me what book should you read to start the year right, i ...

Table for two: Lolo Dad's Cafe in Malate, Manila

(photo from google) "Based on a psychological study, a crush only lasts for a maximum of 4 months. If it exceeds, you are already in love."  Now i can officially and truly say that it is love. 4 months of tears, petty quarrels, weekend LDRs, slow wifi connection, skype weekends, but most of all 4 months of LOVE. im very thankful to God, for giving me the better version of my prayer, my inspiration and my strength.  For months now, we have been having dates here and there and a date wont be complete without our gastronomical adventure also known as "eating" (which y'all could see in my instagram account @manicole) ,and for our 4th month i decided to surprise him with a reservation far from our adventurous laid back palates...  Lolo Dad's Cafe, located in taft (near us La Salle) Quirino. When we first arrived at the place the homey yet cozy yellow lit garden welcomed us, the old feel of 3 step cobblestone pathway gave the restaurant a classic...
