blank spaces.

We, are living between these blank spaces.



And though we try to fill it,


Still


We couldn’t figure out how to.



We cannot help but content ourselves to what we’re sure of.


We’re blinded. And like a crippled soul, we are trapped in our own death.

Regret sears into our forlorn fate. And we mourn over another lost battle --- one day, we cannot put back.

We try to find ourselves in the face of our own defeat.



What happens after the loss has sink in?



Bit by bit, we try to piece what was left of us.

We see a ray of hope.
We sense enlightenment.
We feel a change of heart.

And inspite of it all,

We’re ready to start,



............................….....again.

a walk before the truth.

by: c.a. guanco


As I walk down the aisle…
my hair all fixed..
my gown free flowing…
all dressed up for this

As I walk down the aisle...
you, the man of my dreams
patiently waiting on the other end
ready to take my hand…

As I walk down the aisle…
every inch I savor
step by step
towards eternity..

As I walk down the aisle…
I see visions of bliss…
my future with you
our home, our children..

As I walk down the aisle...
every step, a flashback
of moments we spent together
of times we made love…

As I walk down the aisle...
I smiled and recall
how you vowed to be with me
and now it’s worth the wait

As I walk down the aisle…
A tear dropped from my eye
I took the sudden turn
And watch you meet your bride…


a moment before the truth.

As I wait down the aisle…
In a crisp white tuxedo
All prepared for this moment
To finally, be with the woman I love

As I wait down the aisle…
I see her, the woman of my dreams
Whom I once professed undying love
Smiling brightly like she used to

As I wait down the aisle…
I remember, those times I held her
Sang her favourite songs, and
Danced the night away with her

As I wait down the aisle…
Memories keep coming back
To the days where my world
Intertwines with her and her alone


As I wait down the aisle…
I can’t help but stare
At her lovely face that never fails to
Make my heart beat interminably

As I wait down the aisle…
She saw me, looking at her
And now I ask myself how
Things fell apart for the both of us…

As I wait down the aisle…
I bowed my head, held this one last
Tear I had for her, looked at her,
And whispered “I do”
