How my heart longs for every part of you / how you make everything so joyful from being blue. #poem #idyllicPoetry
I may never know love until you come back / How I wish our memoirs linger forever in your heart. #poem #idyllicPoetry
Your eyes, your touch, your scent, would always be a part of me / even the world has left us a lonely ivy tree. #poem #idyllicPoetry
The world is too much with us, yet I can't let you go / forever doesn't suffice my heart to love you so. #poem #idyllicPoetry
It hurts to see you holding somebody else's hands / How I long to hold you in my arms, thisp pain I can't stand. #poem #idyllicPoetry
To be with you through eternity is my great desire / to give you my everything is my heart's loudest cry. #poem #idyllicPoetry
I love you. . more each day that passes by / even when you're not around, my heart slowly dies.. #poem #idyllicPoetry
All I ever wanted was to be with you forever / every enduring storm, it's our hearts that will always weather. :) #poem #idyllicPoetry
I wanna fly and spread my wings / I wanna be the heron, in your heart, that forever sings. :) #poem #idyllicPoetry
No matter what I say or do, my heart always leads to you / every path I take leads me back home, I realize it's true. #poem #idyllicPoetry
How it made me cry to see you smiling so happily / yet you were there, on the other side of the world to me. #poem #idyllicPoetry
How you light up my world into good things from being bad / yet I knew you're the best love I've never had. #poem #idyllicPoetry
it took so long to have you in my heart / yet it took a short instance of a love torn apart. #poem #idyllicPoetry
As ivy leaves fall in their serrated edges / our memories are poems written in thousand pages. #poem #idyllicPoetry
I can't imagine how my life would be / without you by my side, my heartbeat, my breath. #poem #idyllicPoetry
If love was a fire, I would always ignite the spark / I would light up your world amidst the dark. :) #poem #idyllicPoetry
You are one of the Heaven's miracles / ignite the fire in you, let your bright lights sparkle. :) #poem #idyllicPoetry
Why can't it be? It was like a fairy tale / yet you never shared to me your happy ending. #poem #idyllicPoetry
I will wait until the winter blows the quiet leaves away / my love will endure until heaven cries with rains. #poem #idyllicPoetry
My love will go on until the rainbows lose its hue / you're the reason why in every storms, I make it through. #poem #idyllicPoetry
I never knew love until I saw your eyes / It makes my heart feel like I could reach the skies. :) #poem #idyllicPoetry
The road of life is an endless harsh path / it takes an eternal love to override all the world's wrath. #poem #idyllicPoetry
I give you the best of my every thing / a burning flame in winter and a rain of gold in spring. #poem #idyllicPoetry
I will endure starvation to make you alive / To save your heart, I'd be stabbed by a thousand of knives. #poem #idyllicPoetry
Your love has made a home somewhere else. Who am I to complain? / So, this is goodbye; I have to take all of the pain. #poem #idyllicPoetry
It's time to stay away from you / yet, in my heart soul, I know that I shall live with tears because of losing you. #poem #idyllicPoetry
I feel I can never sing that song with perfect rhythm / since you went away, life has shown me no meaning. #poem #idyllicPoetry
I wish I could turn back time, when you're still with me / when every moment I spend with you, turns gloom into glee. #poem #idyllicPoetry
It pains me to realize we can never be together / those flowers have been frozen by the wayward winter. #poem #idyllicPoetry
I'm afraid I can never feel that summer in your eyes / my world has been engulfed by gloomy skies. #poem #idyllicPoetry
Every raindrops remind me of angels crying / every storm is note of a hope that's fading.. #poem #idyllicPoetry

My love shines through against the brightness of the sun / my heart's loudest cry is, "You're the only one." :) #poem #idyllicPoetry

"I came to bury my heart..." (a blue sonnet)

That bitter wind swept the bitter love
I felt for you; cursed by heavens above
No matter what, I’ll never part
Coz it’s you I’ve wanted from the very start.
That cold winter embraced the cold night
As if we were meant to create the life
I opened my eyes; knew I’m just dreaming
We never fit like a glove; through time we’re drifting.
Those woods I have always been into
Where I bury all the memories of you;
‘tis better to die alone and crying
Than living without you – where my heart’s longing
I’ve never felt a love a like this
So, underneath, I placed my heart in debris.

20 CANS of SUCCESS

By: Neil Anderson

1. Why should I say “I can’t” when the Bible says I can do all things through Christ who gives me strength (Philippians 4:13)?
2. Why should I lack when I know that God shall supply all my needs according to His riches in glory in Christ Jesus (Philippians 4:19)?
3. Why should I fear when the Bible says God has not given me a spirit of fear, but of power, love and a sound mind (2Timothy 1:7)?
4. Why should I lack faith to fulfill my calling, knowing that God has allotted me a measure of faith (Romans 12:3)?
5. Why should I be weak when the Bible says that the Lord I is the strength of my life and that I will display strength and take action because I know God (Psalm 27:1, Daniel 11:32)?
6. Why should I allow Satan supremacy over my life when He that is in me is greater than he that is in the world (1 John 4:4)?
7. Why should I accept defeat when the Bible says that God always leads me in triumph (2 Corinthians 2:14)?
8. Why should I lack wisdom when Christ became wisdom to me from God and God gives wisdom to me generously when I ask Him for it (1 Corinthians, James 1:5)?
9. Why should I be depressed when I can recall to mind God’s loving kindness, compassion and faithfulness and have hope (Lamentations 3:21-23)?
10. Why should I worry and fret when I can cast all my anxiety on Christ who cares for me (1 Peter 5:7)?
11. Why should I ever be in bondage knowing that there is liberty where the spirit of the Lord is (2 Corinthians 3:17)?
12. Why should I feel condemned when the Bible says I am not condemned because I am in Christ (Romans)?
13. Why should I feel alone when Jesus said He is with me always and He will never leave me nor forsake me (Matthew 28:20, Hebrews 13:5)?
14. Why should I feel accursed or that I am the victim of bad luck when the Bible says that Christ redeemed me from the curse of the law that I might receive His spirit (Galatians 3:13-14)?
15. Why should I be discontented when I, like Paul, can learn to be contented in all my circumstances (Philippians 4:11)?
16. Why should I feel worthless when Christ became sin on my behalf that I might become the righteousness of God in Him (2 Corinthians 5:21)?
17. Why should I have a persecution complex knowing that nobody can be against me when God is for me (Romans 8:31)?
18. Why should I be confused when God is the author of peace and He gives me knowledge through his dwelling spirit (1 Corinthians 14:33, 2:12)?
19. Why should I feel like a failure when I am a conqueror in all things through Christ (Romans 8:37)?
20. Why should I let all the pressures of life bother me when I can take courage knowing that Jesus has overcome the world and its tribulations (John 16:33)?

#2010was ... A+! :)

Hello everyone! I hope you guys are in good condition as you celebrate Christmas and greet the new coming year with a blast! I’m back writing (well, I’ve always loved writing... but, this time, it’s more serious. Aye.)

2010 has been a roller-coaster-ride year for me. Ups and Downs. Victory and Defeat. Joy and Sadness. Friendship. Love. Hate. Attitude Problems. Blessings. Trials. Opportunities. This year has made me laugh, cry, hope and endure – in all areas of my life. And for that, I’m writing down all these things I learnt this year.

I feel like I’ve been born again and the three kings have just arrived across my world offering their precious gifts. Let me share you these wonderful gifts.

ATTITUDE. This is the first gift I learn as I go along this 2010. To me, proper disposition counts a lot, particularly when dealing with other people. It is what other people see in you – a mirror that reflects your true self. It doesn’t really matter if you’re intelligent or not, rich or poor or whatever religious group you’re in, what matters is your character that makes people realize how worthy you are, not just of praises but also blessings from above. Great attitude transcends culture, race or gender. Gay or lesbian, Asian or Western, it doesn’t matter. It is how you mingle with people around you without hurting them or stooping down on them – but by building bridges everywhere with everyone.

The second gift I received is PERSEVERANCE. Whatever struggles you’re going through, as long as you stay steadfast, you’ll make it to the end. I admit I easily give up when troubles come my way; however, I’ve always kept the faith. When matters get worse, I always kneel down and pray. I trust Him that He will let His Hands cast away all the trials I encounter – and then I go on persevering. I chose Education not only because I see my potential in this profession but also teaching is my passion. My heart is into it. And I tell you my friend, as long as you love what you’re doing – no matter how many bumped roads you meet – and you have your persevering spirit with you, there’ll be no reason for you no to succeed.

A GOLDEN HEART. This is the last present I acquire this year. By golden heart I mean a show of love, care, forgiveness and kindheartedness. I have been through a lot of difficulties – personal, social, emotional and spiritual it may be. Personality-wise, golden heart is through showing your love to everyone – no matter how rude some people may be. It makes life lovelier when everyone offers each other’s love. Socially, I mean golden heart by forgiveness. Whatever fight you have with your fellow, vengeance is never an option – but forgiveness. Bear in mind that the misunderstanding you have is just a product of the conflict of each of your ideas, beliefs or principles – because in the end you’ll see that when you forgive, you also learn to accept. By far, the most important lesson I gain this year is to have a golden heart. It’s hard when you always carry big baggage in your heart. But when your heart’s golden, life goes on towards a brighter path. Life is short and miserable when you’re feeling bitter and angry. But, with a golden heart, life is short… yet meaningful.

This year, 2010, has taught me to love, to wish, to cope and to act like a matured individual. My journey this year has molded me into a strong, responsible, and a fully-grown Mark Anthony Orpiano. And now that this year s about to end, it still continues to remind me not to be hopeless for another year to come. Instead, it encourages me to look forward to a more optimistic and more fruitful 2011.

Surely, these gifts I will always cherish as I walk along the roads of life.
