a sunshine
whose beautiful strands of hair
blinded Apollo’s golden chariot
weakened the silver-tongue God
whose poetic tears seemed pointless
the sunshine i know
carried the brightest smile; living every colors in a palette
waking up the sleeping cities
as she whispers her purest song, her purest heart
to the blooming flowers, the deadliest roses
and whose sweet fingertouch
calmed the wildest creatures
walked the mountain hills
swam the bottomless pit
to see the beauty, the beaming light
in its obsidian walls
for she crafts with grace; with love
as she stands to be the shiniest sun
miraculously lighting up
the wrecks of rain

hello sunshine! happy happy 18th birthday! i made this not very perfect poem for you that sums up how great of a person you are, how you always shine to embrace every person in your life - regardless of how flawed and imperfect they are, you always find that golden piece lying within. i decided to make this poem since you were the very first person who reacted to the poem i posted on my finsta!! and i’m hoping you would like this one too.

cheron kishes co - one amazing, beautiful, kindhearted soul who was there for me all throughout. i remember in grade 4, there were only a few times that we actually hung out at school but it was through chat and lineplay and wherever games we’ve spent sleepless nights bonding. playing with you, i just felt so comfortable and accepted. in grade 4, in a new school and a new environment, i always felt like people were not so fond of me, and that people gossiped about me, but you were that person who assured and comforted me. you always had my back, even if we weren’t that close yet.

fast forward to summer where you’ve become my confidant - one that i relate so truly. i remember going to facebook just to ask you to play, or chat with countless of your admirers then tell you (even though i wasn’t supposed to, winkwink). i remember waiting for you to call me through landline where we just libak and talk about the people who we think hated us hehe. we reached that point where we hated the same people, endlessly talking about how snob they were and that all they did was libak HAHAHA

you’ve always been so supportive, you’ve always listened to me talk about my hopeless crushes and even supported me during my jeje days. you were so patient, so loving and just overall the friend i can say i’m very grateful to have. even though we became miles and oceans apart, that didn’t stop us from updating each other, calling everyday through okhello, sending retrica selfies and ranting about the pettiest problems we had HAHAHAHAH you’ve seen me from my childhood days up to the day i came to my senses and did not by the slightest pinch, judge me for anything.

i love how even if we don’t talk as much, i know i can always rely on you. at the times we’ve talked, i still felt the vibe and bond i’ve always felt before and i realize some things (especially this one) just don’t change, despite the barriers stomping. no words can ever explain how happy i am to have crossed paths with someone just as sweet and lovely. someone who  spreads optimistic words to anyone who needs it. are you an angel in disguise?? HAHAHAHA let’s bet that question rounds to a bunch of people you’ve made happy.

anyway, you’re now 18 and i can’t wait to see the successes lining up for you. know that i’m one of those people who genuinely supports you in each step you take, and that i’m always here whenever you need a lending hand. I hope this day will be as sweet to you as you are to everyone. you deserve all the happiness in this world. tell me if someone does you wrong okay, i will punch!! I love you a lot and i hope this year will be a great one for you!!  <33
