Always Neglected

by: Christian Duran

To My Beloved Driver,


I never left. It's just that you don't need me as of the moment. My presence will just annoy you. You got to see how beautiful life is now that it's sunny outside.

I just have be contented watching you with your friends laughing your hearts out and enjoying the moment. I know, I will not cross your mind. Don't worry I understand.

But please remember..

When the going gets tough.. When you feel alone.. when need someone to clear the path for you, don't hesitate to tap me.


After all, That's the reason why I'm here; that's my purpose.. to wipe those tears away and guide you on your way..


Always here,

Windshield Wiper

For Life is a Journey

by: Christian Duran

You're the one who sacrificed and you're the one paying the price.


Not all people will be aware of how much you care.


You must understand that they're not dumb; they're just numb.


No matter what you do, not everyone will like you.


Don't give room for self-pity. You just have to move on.


There will be a lot of people who will come your way.


Life is a journey. Every meeting is a chance for you to create a new story.


In the end you'll find people who truly understand and will never left you behind.



- Christian Duran

Poetry

The meaning whithin every word;
The language of the mute..

The smooth whispher of each line;
The music of the deaf..


Everyone understands it..
Everyone can speak of it..

A burst of laughter,
A falling tear drop,

The feelings of every heart..


Such an essential element of Life..

Someday

Staying late at a serene night
Looking at the calm night sky
Seeing the smiling stars from afar
Feeling the wind whispering to my ears
Reminds me of you every now and then

Waking up in a cheerful morning
Looking at the clear blue sky
Seeing the playful clouds pass by
Feeling the wind touching my heart
Reminds me of you every now and then

I can’t deny this feeling
No words can express this longing
You are always in my mind and heart
I wish to see your smile
I hope to feel your hug

But we are far away
I want to touch your hand
I want to touch your face
I long to kiss your lips
But then we are so far away

Yet, I am not losing hope
I know about someday
Someday will come I am sure
When we will be together
When we will never be apart

Hold on, never give up
My love for you will never fade
Look into the sky and you will see
The stars are smiling and are saying
Time will come for that someday

Moments with You

There are many things in life that I need to enjoy
I want to savor every moment of them with you

I want to stand in the rain closing my eyes,
feeling the water touch my senses

But it will be much nicer if you’re with me in the rain
and I’m touching your hand

I want to stroll and relax, to feel the cool wind
under the cozy shade of a tree, I’ll watch the sunset

But it will be much nicer if you’re with me watching the sight
and I can see your heart-melting smile.

I want to enjoy a long quite sleep at night
thinking of sweet dreams and happy thoughts

But it will be much nicer if you’re at my side as I close my eyes
and I can smell your hair as I hug you tight

I want to wake up in the morning full of life
as the warm sun greets me with a smile

But it will much nicer if I wake up and see your face
to be greeted by your warm sweet embrace

All I want is to enjoy every moment of my life with you..

Someone

I am not afraid to dive in the deepest part of the ocean

Although I don’t know how to swim.

I am not scared of jumping right off the plane

Without having a parachute

I am not scared to be in a maze

And struggle to find my way out

Because that’s all what love is

You dive the territory of the unknown

But someone will swim and save you

You jump of the sphere of doubtfulness

But someone will always be ready to catch you

You will be put in the realm of mystery

But someone will lead you back home

That is love.. uncertain but real

And that someone is true.

That someone is you.

It Could Have Been a Perfect Night

A while ago, this place was full of fireflies

The stars were brightly playing with their lights
The moon was peacefully showing its elegance
Then there was a breath-taking spectacle..


Brilliant lights were shooting from all directions
It was a magnificent display of fireworks
Then I realized, it was so much better
They were stars; A meteor shower is happening


I was like a child clapping my hands in delight
And fireflies were swarming above my head
They were dancing the rhythm of the falling stars
I lazed on the soft grass fixing my sight above


I would have loved to see the glow in your eyes
Sharing this splendid spectacle with me
Then we would talk about happy thoughts
Our laughter will be the music for the fireflies


But all of these were but hopeless thoughts
My sadness and my anticipation for your presence
Is enough for me to leave the joyous fireflies
To leave the festive meteor shower..


Everything was perfect on our meeting place
sad to say, you did not come..

Ya man patranslate yo este poema na un amigo.hehe

Tu Guia


Cuando que ay olvida
Conel un noche lleno
De alegrias
Alegrias de un hente
Inocente de fantasma del mundo
Bien inocente


Hasta un dia
Mismo su alegria
Ya envolve
Conele na tristeza
Hambre, y rabioDe bien deficil
Escopa con el realidad del vida
Vida lleno de
Misterio


Quesejoda nuay queber na mundo
Fuerte te ne!
Masquin cuantos beses pa man saltajan
Nadaman o crosa miles de rio,
Mapuerza,
Na un caballo puede compara.. hehe


Na cueva escuro y peligroso,
Malandug man o seco,
Mantisud man o man muhmuh
Para lang sin miedo.


Un cosa lang el sigurao,
Aqui lang yo ta ama y ta suporta


Iyo el del tu guia.

Pangandoy lamang

Pangandoy nako nga mulupad sama sa hangin
aron mahalukan ang matahum nga mga bulak
Sa lugar nga ako lang ang makatungkad
kung diin ang sapa gasayaw sa katin-aw

Pangandoy nako nga mulupad sama sa hangin
aron matandog ang gasidlak nga bulan
Samtang gakatulog ang kalibutan,
gakos ko ang maanindot nga mga bituon

Pangandoy nako nga mulupad sama sa hangin
aron madala ko ikaw sa akong damgo
Bason pa lang matabo nga higugmaon mo ako..

Translation:

PANGARAP LAMANG

Pangarap kung lumipad kagaya ng hangin
upang mahalikan ang mgagandang bulaklak
Sa lugar na ako lang ang nakakatunton
kung saan ang batis ay payapang sumasayaw

Pangarap kong lumipad kagaya ng hangin
upang mahawakan ang nag-aaninag na buwan
Habang anmg mundo ay natutulog
yakap ko ang kaakit-akit na mga bituin

Pangarap kong lumipad kagaya ng hangin
upang madala kita sa aking panaginip
Baka sakaling mangyari na mahalin mo ako..

Mabuhok na Kanto

Sa isang kanto, isang matanda’y iika-ikang naglalakad
Nakangisi, sinusuklay ang makintab na buhok
Handang-handa nang umalis, dali-daling pumara ng jeep
Sa kanyang pagsakay, buhok ay nawala,
ang hangin ang tumangay.

Sa kanto ring iyon, isang ale ang aking namataan
Bihis na bihis, may akay na paslit
Handang-handa nang umalis, dali-daling pumara ng jeep
Sa kanyang pagwagayway, hindi namalayan,
buhok sa kanyang kilikili’y kumakaway.

Sa isang kanto, ako’y nakadukong naglalakad
Isang jeep biglang huminto, isang dilag ang bumaba.
Sa pagkamangha sa kanyang kagandahan,
siya’y aking nabangga
Ako’y humingi ng paumanhin,
ngunit ako’y hindi pinansin.

Sa kanto ring iyon kinabukasan ako’y bumalik
Paghinto ng jeep, ang binibini’y aking muling nakita
Sa pagbaba niya, panyo ay kanyang nabitawan
Sa kanyang dahan-dahang pagdampot, ako’y kinilabutan…
Mabuhok niyang dibdib aking nasilayan!

all I have

I am not great, that I know
I am not a head turner, I don’t stand out
I don’t have the looks that I can brag
And I asked myself, “What Do I Got?”

I am not an achiever, sad to say
I am not a math genius, to my dismay
I am not a witty debater, I admit
And I asked myself, “What Do I Got?”

I don’t have the talents to compete
I don’t have a golden voice you can appreciate
I don’t have the groovy moves you can follow
And I asked myself, “What Do I Got?”

I look at myself and all I see are words
Just words of emotions and meanings
And how do I use these words?
I use them to lead you to my world

I don’t know how to sing
I only have words playing the melody of my life
I don’t know how to dance
I only have words grooving with the beat of my heart

The beauty of a tiny raindrop I can describe
The harmony within a burst laughter I can play
The smell of blooming flowers I can share
The wonderful feeling of love I can portray

This is the world where I live
Where meanings and feelings took over
Because of the words that I can use
To give everything a breath of life

I may not be great, that is true
Though I have nothing but words
The meaning and the emotions in every line
Is enough to say that I am no ordinary man

Hopeless Cliche

What is Love?

Love is to look at you

though you would not look at me

Love is to go closer

though you would go away

Love is to help you

though you would not thank me

Love is to smile

though you break my heart

Love is loving you

though you would never love me

If love is blind Then blind am I for loving you

Final Kiss

You let me kiss you every now and then

Yet you always wipe your lips in the end

If you only knew how it hurts me

I want to complain yet I can’t

I have long wished to touch your face

Yet that’s beyond my limits

I have long wanted to caress your hair

Yet I can’t even hold your hand

And now I see that you’ve found another one

His taller and good looking than me

How painful it is to see him there

Looking at you, expecting your kiss

You will no longer remember me

And how I touched your tender lips,

Before I bid goodbye, I beg you

Let me kiss you one last time
