About Me

My photo
I'm not a graceful person. I'm not a Sunday morning or a Friday sunset. I am a Tuesday 2AM, I am gunshots muffled by a few city blocks, I am a broken window during February. My bones crack on a nightly basis. I fall from elegance with a dull thud, and I apologize for my awkward sadness. I sometimes believe that I don't belong around people, that I belong to all the leap days that didn't happen. The way light and darkness mix under my skin has become a storm. You don't see the lightning, but you hear the echoes.

I (always) go back to today last year ...

I woke up choking, consecutively for ...
It got Sophie worried.
Mornings I woke up, my eyes swollen.
She asked why.
"Kinagat ng ipis," sabi ko.
(what a lame excuse, Im under-estimating my daughter's intelligence :) ).

I thought it was hormonal.  Me and my bad period.
Or must be the moon.  The equinox of autumn.

I went to YM, and read back.  We had our fears but we were so happy.  I was so happy.  Those threads, they (still) feel like honey-glazed knives.

This week, last year.  We broke up.
