Walang Nahiya Published: July 26, 2026

Sa gitna ng baha sa putik ng nayon… nakalutang ang bangkay ng pangakong sa kawalan ng katuparan ay ibinaon. Bilyon-bilyong pondo ang iniligak sa mga multong proyekto kaya sa rumaragasang galit ng mga ilog ang maralita ang nilamon.

The heart tears when it’s unknown The heart tears when you’re crying alone The heart tears when truth is made known The heart tears as you come to terms The scars They didn’t occur overnight Each time, the cut rips further The tear growing larger Until there’s nothing pure left Just scars from tears that never ended The scars From years of inconsistency, false promises, infidelities, lies, and insecurities Eventually, You give up. The tears take over. You feel nothing. You feel numb. You feel nothing. A heartbreak is

Moments Published: February 24, 2026

Not to feel without the things, which you want to do. Without the stuff - you need to feel not alone. To forget! To feel not crying! Feel the lonliness without you! Feelings to stay strong for your child, for your family! But not for yourself! But okay, for other people, things, solutions! And where do you STAY in this Moments? Asking yourself...! MC. 26.11. 2023
