Eased by the Tides

by CZERIZHA KAIZEL S. ADZUARA THERE WAS hardly a rise and fall of the tides. Ramil approached the waters, a seastorm stirring within his chest. He watched the graceful ebb and flow of the sea—in hopes to find serenity in the coastline. Alone and deep in thought, Ramil settled down…

Arcadian Abode

by Trixcy Anne B. Loseriaga My beloved languished was I  whenever I recall   those luscious lips of yours.   Your fiery soul concealing the blissful agony of my sworn brothers.   Their sunken eyes  cloaked in your warm embrace. How I wished to reunite with them  but Tyche was never…

Sa Mata ni Andres

by ABIGAIL M. ADRIATICO Maulap ang kalangitan nang masilayan ng bayani ang kumpulan ng mga tao sa tabi.   Habang hawak ang mga karatulang may samu’t saring kataga, patuloy sa pagsigaw ang mga kabataang napupuno ng galit at hinagpis sa mga pangyayari sa bansa na hindi kanais-nais.   Kanyang naalala…

In Motion

by CZERIZHA KAIZEL S. ADZUARA At last, home calls. The soles of my feet will stroke the grounds walked by saints and heroes alike.   At last, my arms will sway and welcome  the warm bodies that once were just in photographs.   I lament the half of my college…

Lampos

by TRIXCY ANNE B. LOSERIAGA MALAYO RIN ang nilakad ni Dana bago niya natanaw ang pampang.  Maaliwalas ang simoy ng hangin at ang mga bata ay nagtatampisaw sa tubig. Nagkalat sa dalampasigan ang liwanag ng mga alitaptap.  Dumako ang ilang alitaptap sa kinaroroonan ni Dana. Hinuli niya ang isa subalit…

A freshman’s desk

by ABIGAIL M. ADRIATICO OLIVE'S DESK was a complete mess. Her first day in college was fast approaching and she felt the need to do something to calm her nerves. Thinking she needed to redecorate her space, she took everything out of her desk and cork board.  With everything placed…

Beckoning

by CZERIZHA KAIZEL S. ADZUARA SHE FIRMLY stood with her two columns.  Her Baroque features depicted how she prevailed over the test of time. A saint in stone perched above her, which will soon watch us stride below.  She and the saint awaited us amid the rhythm of drums and…

The sun will always rise

I HAVE always been scared of the night. Lola often spoke tales of once terrifying beasts that lurked on moonless nights and preyed on the weak.  They came in different shapes and forms, usually disguising themselves to look almost human-like. It would be easy to mistake one for your friend.…

Ngiti ng Nangangarap

BAWAT MUKHA ng mga kabataang nakakasalamuha ko sa munting tindahan naming magkapatid, isang matamis na ngiti ang lagi kong nabibigay na kapalit. Naaalala ko ang mga panahong ako ang nasa kanilang posisyon, pursigidong abutin ang mga pangarap at hiling. Sa katotohanan, hindi ko naabot ang minithi ko. Subalit kahit ganoon,…
