Sunset. Red was having a fight with blue and yellow as to whom should occupy the larger space of the endless sky.
Vast. The sea was trying to be calm amidst the strong wind.
Cold. Warm was being pushed away by the vicious coldness.
Gloomy. Happiness was trying its very best to overcome a stronger feeling named loneliness.

Me. I was at the middle of everything.
Me. I was watching as the sunsets.
Me. I was one with the sea as it tries to be calm.
Me. I was shivering as coldness drives warm away.
Me. I was trying my VERY best to overcome this loneliness.
Why? Now I ask myself...
Why did I chose to be alone?
Why did I chose to be so far away from my friends?

Three years ago, I wanted to be far away from the city. Far from blinking lights, far from the noise, far from the busy streets, far from everything that would remind me of a stressful life. That was THREE YEARS AGO...

Now after three years of spending life here in the island of Palawan, I am asking myself was it worth everything?... A few days back my friends were here. They had their time out of the city life and so they decided to pay me a visit. It was a very, very short time... Three days... Three days of being together (again)... Three days of reminiscing... Three days of laughs... Three HAPPY DAYS!

Three days is already over... Now I look back to three years... And as I look back, memories played at the back of my mind... images were flashing... silence came... and then (unnoticed) tears falls down my face...


...tatlong araw lang pala ako naging maligaya di ko man lang napuna tatlong araw ko'y tapos na...
