Not Down If You're Not: Red Flag



I can treat you right,

‎Like how girls should be treated

‎But I'm not a guy ‎

Then should I be quiet? ‎ ‎


Perhaps my friend was right

That I am afraid for I know that we both can't be the endgame

I am not Mr. Right.

‎Right. I am not a guy.


But by the way, are you a Ms. Miss?

‎Or are you fine with a gay Miss? ‎

If you're down, Miss

‎I would take the risk.


‎I won't sleep.

Press the buzz and beep

‎I'll make it there in a minute.

‎Just let me know, please .


I mean.. I don't even know if I was just kidding or not

‎Though I am sure that I want us to have this and that

Is it real, or infatuation? ‎

Or a fear of rejection?


Looking back, we were never close ‎

Why do I miss you?

‎We never really had that much of interactions ‎

Why do I talk to you now? ‎


‎Missed the sight of you

‎I wanna keep you

‎What do I do? ‎

How to? ‎


‎I was giving signals ‎

Sometimes hesitating yet ‎

You surely are the target

‎But why am I still holding it? ‎ ‎


Can't I release the arrow? ‎

Do I want to release this? ‎

Would I release this?

‎Do you want me to release this? ‎ ‎


Maybe I would.

If I know that you are willing to hug it—

Concludes that I am only willing to risk

If us, together, surely will exist.

The TOTGA Thoughts of Chinnie Balungcas

     Chinnie Balungcas, 17, a Grade 12 student, daughter, granddaughter, responsible, brave, ambitious, and a TOTGA. The one that got away. You might ask why, in what part or in what situation, and how. Well, her story happened.      Chinnie is in a family of eight—her parents and her 5 siblings. Her mother, Gina, is a housewife, and her father, Arnold, is an Overseas Filipino Worker(OFW) in Papua New Guinea. Her siblings are named: Pamela, Geselle, Karel, Justin, and John Michael. She is the fourth child of her parents. Her family lives in Manila except for her father who is working abroad, and she, who is living with her grandparents on her mother's side.      Erlinda Lapiz, 72, the grandmother, took her from her parents when she was eight(8) months old. It was because her parents couldn't sustain her needs; her father was jobless at that time and the reason why their family is financially unstable. So, Erlinda, together with Alejandro, 82...

2012 : If the World Really Ended

If love is measured by the bouquets of roses ‎ Or the places you two visited ‎ How often "I love you" was said ‎ Or how many months were celebrated ‎ Then I don't know what love is ‎ ‎ All I know was the hugs of the heat of the sunlight ‎Until it gets dark and replaced by the moon and its tranquility ‎ The comfort it brings together with the breeze of cold winds ‎ Swinging the trees that make sounds like a whisper ‎Until the birds sing and chirp again in the morning ‎ ‎ With you, that's how I count our time ‎ That's how every day goes by ‎ Taking note of every detail ‎ Having faith that this love will prevail ‎ Until the end of infinity ‎ I am not the shadow that leaves you in the darkness ‎Trying hard to be that rhodopsin instead ‎That, even if the world is in the shades of grey ‎ You'd still see things that would make you stay ‎ Promise I'll hold you in happiness and pain ‎ ‎But if it unfortunately will not go far ‎ You are the memoir I'd write and ...

I Am Afraid to Become A Mother, a Parent

  I Am Afraid to Become A Mother, a Parent I am afraid to become a mother. First off, I still have dreams to reach, goals to achieve, and things to prove. ‎ ‎I am afraid to become a mother. Secondly, I saw my parents thrive; witnessed the blood and tears to provide, for us to have a better life. ‎ ‎ I am afraid to become a mother. ‎Third, I am young and dumb but learned that life is not about the butterflies in our stomach but food on our table. ‎ ‎I am afraid to become a mother. ‎Not because I don't imagine myself as one but because I might not be the best one. That what if I couldn't give the nurture of a mother. ‎ ‎I am afraid to become a mother, ‎Not because I don't want to be one some day, but because I'm afraid I can't provide. I am badly afraid that I might be one of my child's reasons to cry at night. ‎ ‎I know love conquers all, but a desperate love won't create a less harsh life; won't give lighter problems to carry; won't present a clear...
