Diverseness

Diverseness

by: Mark Jhon Cardoza Oxillo

"Mas gwapo si kuan kaysa sa iyaha",

"Mas brayt man gyud to si kuan kaysa niya",

"Siya ang pinakabogo sa klase nila"

"Siya ra juy pangit sa ilang pamilya ba."

These are some irksome words we often hear,

But we just let it pass through our bare ear.

Hearing such feels like having a fever.

'twas maddening, not funny, yes, never!

Comparison is becoming a thing.

Why mind my life when it's not interesting?,

Mine's unappreciative, nor bothering.

Go get a life dude, make it worth living!

Yeah, comparing stuffs may seem natural,

Though we sometimes do it in reciprocal,

But the thing is, it makes one skeptical,

With their friend's honesty and betrayal.

Ikaw kaya ang i-compare sa uban,

For sure, malain jud ka'g taman-taman.

Lahi man ta ninyo'g gigikanan,

Lahi sad ta ninyo'g pamatasan.

Let us embrace everyone's diverseness,

And appreciate someone's uniqueness.

Because that would give us true happiness.

Having weakness won't define our fullness.

oOo
