days have just filled with joy
chirpings are alarming every morning
like the sweetness smile you gave
bringing happiness to my day

the wind is so cold
even the sun is high
because of the SPIRIT of joy
which everyone are cherishing

time may be so fast
but the love is still the same
even the world is changing
still we are together

people may not feel the same
but it is not an excuse that we need not to celebrate
the yearly event that always changes everyone's heart
so let just be who we are this CHRISTMAS

merry christmas and happy new year....

Wondering nothing

By gab david

Things may be different
All the corners will be filled with colors
Changing every setting of the room
No wonder why

When I said I need a love
Everything pours like the water in the stream
And even the tides of oceans have change its course
No wonder why

Suddenly the love I was wanting came along
Like the clouds have just fallen over the room
Something came along with it and it struck me
No wonder why

Now the possibilities have just knock in the door
Wishes have just coming to start
Letting every bit of the room goes into a heaven feeling
No wonder why

Fairytales are just for children as what people say
Like having the dream land in your room
But how come everything change and became true when love comes
No wonder why

So the dull room with unpainted corners have lighten up
Understanding every bit of changes that came along
Like a contagious effect that slowly engulfing
No wonder why

Connecting the distance that have gone lately was best thing
Facing the hardship in life
Even the day may seem to drift slowly still hope is there
No wonder why

Faking every bit of the chances that comes
Makes the moments end up nothing
And the consequences was more painful
No wonder why

Someday things will be gone
Forgetting every bit of the colors in the room
And even shutting every windows on it
No wonder why

The only thing that will remain in life was a portion of happiness
Living every bit of it
And sensing every joy that keep it burning
No wonder why

When the time comes into an end
And the places are in it proper position
Life may be in halt
No wonder why

Loving alone

I am the night,
that filled your dreams
and will bring your tomorrow

I am the day,
that holds every minute of your life with no hesitation
yet with true love in me

and I am the light gone astray,
that after a long kiss goodnight
still left alone with big heart and longing for true affection

Simple words from me

By gab david
April 06, 2007 / 9.26 pm / hometown naga city



the day had just say goodbye
and the night have started to wave
so happy
like the children playing in the rain

i was sitting in one corner of the room
and the computer was the only light
so bright
like the flowers that blooms in may

thinking the first day I met you
and the sudden rush that runs in my body
so funny
like the morning dew that touches my skin

as I always glance at you
and try to get your attention every minute of the day
so shame
like the makahiya leaf every time I will touch it

but two weeks ago was the best thing that happen
and it was something that change my life
so in love
like the wind that blew from the west

seeing you with me every second of the day
and feeling your soft hands while walking together
so amazing
like the rainbow that comes out after a heavy rain

because of you everything was in the right places
and my life have started to see true colors
so unexpected
like the sun the comes out after a long night


with your love
and time you gave
so great
like the blessings that comes at no time

its all because of you…
and I have nothing to ask for more
so thankful
like the tress that dances to the tune of love

Standing

By gab david
March 04, 2007 / 10.29 am / hometown, naga city


A life must travel
Like the speed of time
Facing every obstacle in front
And still standing

A man must run fast
Like the river that flows down in the stream
Just continue bouncing every time it touches in the rock
And still standing

A heart must trust its feeling
Like the impulses that comes in every mind of a man
Filtering every thoughts that comes in and out
And still standing

With all that affirmation in life
Aches is just a mere nothing to worry
But you need to face life and be strong
And keep standing

Can I manage it?

By gab david
February 2, 2007 / 1.47 am / hometown, naga city



Can I manage it?
The pains that I am having right now
The memories that gives me tears
And the smiling face you have

Can I mage it?
Every time I walk alone, now
Even a glance of you is never to be found
And the sweet perfume you have

Can I manage it?
Forgetting the sweet talks we had
The laughter you give
And the way you look at me with your naïve face

Can I manage it?
Leaving every bit of you
The way you say, gab daw…
And the warmth hug that you give

Can I mange it?
Not having you at my side now
The long conversation until morning
And the innocent kiss that made me complete

Can I manage it?
Not seeing you every minute of the day
Running the other side of the way
And now, loosing you in my life totally

For you my friend

By gab david
January 24, 2007 / 9.03 pm / hometown, naga city


As you glance from nowhere
All I see is your naïve face
So sweet
That even the clouds will kneel down

As you turn and face
All I have is the true happiness
So perfect
That even the sun just smiled

As you walk towards me
All I think is nirvana
So enigmatic
That even the trees dance for joy

As you stand in front of me
All I can say is thank you
So simple
That even the rains give music

As you say hello
All I can do is hug you
So wonderful
That even the stars begin to laugh

As you left
All I can do is have the best thing in life
So breathe taking
That even the time never lost its faith

ReMIniscing or miSSing it?

By gab david
January 22, 2007 / 11.39 am / hometown, naga city


For the past 3 years of my late 20’s lifetime. I experienced the best time in my life. I never thought I’ll be meeting lots of people which now became part of my life. When I first step in the ground of premier state university of this country I never realize it will lead me to a crazy and adventurous way of life. My life was never been the same, then, yet it changed me to a more responsible and lead me to think CRITICALLY - as what the whole people are doing in this little community called “PEYUPS Way of LIFE”. However, along with that “notion” I also meet some people whom really especial in my life – deep inside. For sure this may be normal to each everyone but what I’ve learned when I was with them makes me who I am now. This may be a cliché to each and everyone but for sure I don’t know, it really moves my life to a better one.

So, what am I trying to say here? Actually I just want to make some things to share and try to reminisce those little bits and bites that I’ve had when I met this group called “HOOTENANNY”. Hootenanny was formed somewhat 3 or 4 years ago the same month, January or March ---- I really don’t know, from a little chit chat of kahlou – the head master and leah – assistant head master and collaboration of the others that includes me (wink). From then on, the birth of the “Full Moon” dinner cum party was created and became our monthly rituals. All members are required to bring a new friend and introduce it to the group and she or he will be part of the group. It’s like friendster which I’ve learned it last November 2003. The main purpose of this interaction and connection is to create a group that composes of young and energetic with a spice of adventurous way of life, who love to eat, travel, always on the go, and ready to adventure. So, the days come and months as the people come and go. A connection from each other was merely normal and the six degree thing really true to us, especially to leah! Because of that I’ve met many people from all walks of life and some of them became my coolest and closest friends and give me the undying support about getting or pursuing to be ---- you know what I mean! Ha ha ha PEACE po! <<<<< you know who you are!!! Unfortunately, they all surrender and continue our friendship became more tight and strong!

The food preparation (which not every one are interested hahaha) and who would be the chef of the night was really a no choice for some people! If I will be given a chance to nominate or give an award to those who give more time in kitchen stuff hay…they will have a statue like lapu lapu and be placed in the rooftop ha ha ha!!! And be hailed!!! The usual cuisine that we usually have, talong with coco milk (that every month the flavor is different yet same preparation), inihaw na tilapia, bangus, porkchop and the ever famous green shells a.k.a tahong (as what aiken describe it), and sometimes salad and fruits. And the most important event of the night, the “HOT SEAT” portion while the El hombre tequila or San Miguel lights are circling around. Until the person in the HOT SEAT will just start talking and try to defend himself or herself to avoid to much digging about love life and significant other!!! And if there would be a award for best HOT SEAT well it will be given to leah and yours truly! Those are some of the things I want to experience and do it again. Oh, but in every happiness there would be what we call the “others” who sometimes we call it “PIKON” or “KILL JOY” effect especially if the group is in high spirit of alcohol and the best night and laughter are all over the rooftop. But that would be some spices that we cannot avoid and make our day ha ha ha --- the walkout queen! <<<<< you know who is it! Ha ha ha sorry but PEACE man! And lastly, the best thing is when jay reaches his peak and would start to dance and do the question and answer thing like “boy abunda” in a morning show! Ha ha ha!!! I bet you are now smiling when you remember jay footstep and kakulitan and ending up like a little boy and abby would be starting to flare up like a true mother! Hay… those days, really makes my day so complete.

Now, I am back here in my province, naga city, and visit manila if there would be an extra time and money that makes me feel a little bit of sadness inside. How I wish I can bring back the time and do the stuff again and just have the best time every month! With nothing in my minds – projects, papers, works loads, problems in office and school just merely relaxation and laughter. A treat for ourselves and let our child like comes out and never think of anything just merely enjoyment. Those are some of the bits and bites in my life when I was with the group “HOOTENANNY”. A kind of group that I can always count on in spite of the differences we have. Lastly, I’ll take this opportunity to say thanks guys for attentions and understanding you’ve all given to me. Sorry for the things I’ve said in the past. I may not be aware of the words I’ve used but I hope its not too late say SORRY and TAHNK YOU. A “hootenanny” will always be a “hootenanny”! Live your life to the fullest!!! And never forget to smile and put a happy face. It’s the best thing you can do to others! That’s what you all did to me guys!!! Aja Aja Aja!!!

Nightfall

By gab david

So as the sun leave and say thank you
I am here at you side
Ready to comfort
With no conviction in my heart

Then the music of the stars begin to wave
With a big smile on my face
Ready to greet you
With no fear from inside

And the wind blew from the east
Holding your arms so tightly
Ready to give you my warmth love
With no hesitation from my mind

As the night had conquered the day
Together we breathe
Ready to burst our affection to one another
With no twinge coming from us just true passion

Your true love

By gab david
January 12, 2007 / 8.26 am / hometown, naga city

So the days need to move
Like the water that flows in the streams
Leaving in the middle of the road
Whispering my true love for you

So the time needs to move
Like the wind that blew from the east
Departing all the aches in the room
Slowly crying for your true love

So the sun needs to move
Like the comets that just fades in the sky
Disappearing slowly and nowhere to be found
Begging for your true to be at my side

So the love needs to move
Like the volcano that explodes
Vanishing all the tears inside
Hoping for your true love

As I close

By gab david
January 10, 2007 / 2.55 am / hometown, naga city



As I open my eyes every morning
All I see is nothing
Just a mere blank
Wishing that someday a color may come

As I continue my journey in life
All I see is nothing
Just a mere blank
Forcing myself to create another path

As I lay my hand to the great tree
All I see is nothing
Just a mere blank
Touching every bit of thought and feeling every bit of it

As I sit on the middle of the ground
All I see is nothing
Just a mere blank
Even the presence of those sweet flowers and grasses is nowhere to found

As I look up in the sky
All I see is nothing
Just a mere blank
And even the wind that gives the melody to my ears is gone

As I close my eyes slowly
All I see, now, is something
Just not mere blank anymore
And it’s all because of your true love that carries straight towards to my heart

Another

By gab david

Another day has to come
Just like the other day
A day with full of love and happiness
But, the worries are still inside

Another cloud have just formed
Like the music in my ears
Every time I see you
But, the worries are still inside

Another car have just park
Like the tress that was standing for centuries
While waiting for the warmth embrace coming from you
But, the worries are still inside

Another wind have just blew
Just like the smiles you always do
Leaving every saddest moments in my life
But, the worries are still inside

Another time have captured
Like the rain that falls in may
Washing every pains in my life
But, the worries are still inside

Another song have just made
Giving every heart full of emotions
And telling the time to stop just for once
But, the worries are still inside

Another life has come to an end
Denying every happiness in this world
Leaving the true love
But, the worries are still inside

Another life has just left
Capturing every dreams of people that he met
And because of that he touch every lives that comes
But, the worries are gone and never felt anymore
