The color of the sun. Whenever I see him, he brightens up my day. The color of joy and celebration. Whenever I see him, my soul is in feast and is overjoyed. The color of lemon. Whenever I see him, I get gitty. His favorite color. And, whenever I see yellow, I always remember him….
Read morePara sa aking tala,
Pwede kong isipin na ilang taon mula ngayon, ang ating mga landas ay muling magkakatagpo. Huli kang darating sa pagtitipon at ako’y kunwaring magtatago sa isang sulok. Pwede kong sabihin na muli kong maririnig ang iyong boses sa aking likuran o di kaya’y ang iyong tawa na tila isang musika sa aking tenga. Pwede kong…
