Grandiose View

Grandiose View

(A poem created in honor of Ariana Grande and her songs) 

by: Mark Jhon Cardoza Oxillo

Sitting by the shore, watching the #Moonlight,

Asking myself whether I did life right.

You then come near me walking, wearing white, 

Makes my heart trembles but I'll #BeAlright.

We're feeling the cold winds of #December, 

Sitting #SideToSide like no one else's care.

We've talked much, you're sweet like a #Sweetener.

It is almost ten but hey, #iDontCare. 

We are simply like #BeautyAndTheBeast, 

A #DangerousWoman I can't resist.

Waves of the ocean, we can #DanceToThis, 

#HandsOnMe, let's go create #BetterDays.

Twelve midnight and you said #GoodNightAndGo, 

And for #OneLastTime, I wish you won't do.

Oh, please stay 'coz I'm so #IntoYou,

Please do me a favor, #LetMeLoveYou.

#TheLightIsComing in the calm morning. 

The meadow waves with fresh air I'm #Breathin, 

I am imagining and #Daydreamin,

Yes, last night was indeed #MyEverything.

Seeing you again is #MyFavoritePart,

Healing the #Problem of my #TattooedHeart.

As I #Imagine you, makes my day start.

#TheWay you smile, it's entirely an art.

#AllMyLove for you is overflowing, 

#InMyHead #OverAndOverAgain. 

I can't resist, you're all that I'm thinking. 

Might sounds #Greedy, but you're my heroine. 

I can't help but #Adore you #Everyday, 

Without you, I am just a #Nobody. 

I'm #Needy, I want you #TooClose to me. 

Darling, I want you to #BeMyBaby.

And it feels like #HoneymoonAvenue, 

With a #PopularSong on the #Piano,

A great #Monopoly of me and you, 

Pictured in a frame like a grandiose view.

As My Mood Swings

As My Mood Swings

by Mark Jhon Cardoza Oxillo

You may see me chuckling quietly.

that even others think i'm crazy,

Then you will be in obscurity,

Thinking 'bout the thing that saddens me.

You'll be irritated by my weirdness,

But don't you dare break my happiness.

I may be just nothing and worthless,

but i still need respect, to be honest.

Understanding me is like a puzzle,

You'll be on a test, it's very hassle.

It is like drawing lines in parallel

while jumping in a very high hurdle.

It's a shame that I can't even handle this

But it's really hard on my part, promise!

You may think I badly need a psychiatrist,

but all I want is someone to grasp and caress.

I know that attitude is now really a thing,

And bipolarity is not worth-appreciating.

Treachery and perfidy were so heart-breaking.

But please do bear with me as my mood swings.

oOo

Unconditional

Unconditional
(A Mother's Day Special)
by Mark Jhon C. Oxillo

I may not be that vocal
in saying how much I love you,
but swear, I do. It's equal
with your love in different hue.

I am nothing without you.
You're as strong as the Narra Tree,
The toughest woman i know,
Amidst every adversity.

You mean a world to me, Mom,
"I LOVE YOU", all in capital.
Your love was so optimum,
all-out and unconditional.

oOo

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

Ako ay nabigla at nagulat,

Nung sa akin ika'y unang mag-"chat".

Puso'y sumikip, mata'y dumilat.

Nanginginig at atat na atat.

Di makapagsalita't 'di makagalaw, 

Gustuhin man ng pusong sumigaw,

'Di magawa pagkat uhaw na uhaw,

Sa natatangi't nag-iisang ikaw.

At sarili natin ay kinilala,

'Gang sa nahulog sa isa't isa.

Nagkamabutihan at sumaya,

Walang kapares at walang iba.

Hindi ko mapigilang kiligin

Sa mensaheng gawa mo sa akin.

Tila uod na binuhusan ng asin

Ang nadarama ng aking damdamin.

Aking sinta, sana'y 'di ka magsawa,

Pagmamahal mong dalisay sa t'wina

Na namumukod-tangi sa iba, 

'Pagkat sa piling mo ako'y payapa.

oOo

That One Direction

That One Direction
(A poem created in honor of One Direction and their songs)

by Mark Jhon C. Oxillo

It all started summer afternoon

While I was listening songs from my phone.

I was in the middle of the park,

Waiting for nothing ’til it got dark.

I sat on the bench to get some rest. 

A girl passed wearing #LittleBlackDress.

She sat on the bench in front of me,

Then I looked at her so #Happily.

#iWant to know #EverythingAboutYou,

#LittleThings or even #OneThing will do.

There’s that #Strong aura and #Magic in you

That #RightNow makes me wanna #KissYou.

But if you’re already #Taken, #TellMeALie,

Because all I really want is #YouAndI.

I will tell you the #StoryOfMyLife too, 

Coz I’m #TrulyMadlyDeeply in love with you.

#iWould love to be #ForeverYoung with you

'Coz you do #RockMe and it’s #GottaBeYou.

There is that really #SomethingGreat in you,

That makes #NobodyCompares to you

Oh girl, #iWish to be your #LastFirstKiss,

But I can’t even hold you #MoreThanThis.

Don’t you know girl #WhatMakesYouBeautiful?

It’s your face that’s so #Irresistible.

Then you suddenly glance at your watch,

And tears fell down, down, down , I can’t catch.

I want to #StandUp and go near you,

But I #ChangeMyMind and just watched the view.

Shout with me all your problems louder. 

It’s only #OneWayOrAnother, 

I really want to #SaveYouTonight 

But you’re already out of my sight.

You stand up and run #ThroughTheDark,

Leaving me alone in the park.

I want to chase and go after her,

But #She’sNotAfraid and has no fear.

I’m already home seven twenty-five,

Those #Moments with you makes me feel #Alive.

#DoesHeKnow that you were waiting there?

Oh, please leave him my #Diana dear.

Then the #NightChanges very quickly.

All the memories then turned #History. 

To be remembered 'til #Infinity,

Like it was a #Perfect fantasy.

It's twelve midnight but I still cannot sleep,

Those #MidnightMemories in my mind’s so deep.

I’m #UpAllNight knowing that it’s #OverAgain,

With those #SameMistakes, I had so much in pain.

#WhatAFeeling #WalkingInTheWind,

Having #NoControl yet so serene. 

But all of these are in one #illusion,

#OnceInALifetime for no reason.

Listening to the #BestSongEver in my phone,

While thinking that I must get over and move on. 

That #SummerLove was the best of my vacation.

I won't forget you leaving on THAT ONE DIRECTION.

oOo
