waiting

I know how to wait. To work hard and wait with patience.

At times, my patience has been rewarded. Sometimes, I am still left waiting.

My current status: waiting.

blessed

I feel so blessed lately and inspired. I'm walking on clouds. I was just promoted to company member. My rehearsals and classes are rewarding. My parents, family, friends, teachers and mentors are so supportive. And, I am so blessed to have the people I love, love me back. My phone is full of messages of love.

God is to be thanked for all these blessings. Thank you for the love, for giving me dance, for always providing and, most of all, for the people in my life.

Summer Under the Blanket

By Patrick John Rebullida

I wait for one full day in the sun

Bare-footed and bare-chested, my heart exposed

Flesh hot with sweat from your heat spun

Each moment free, with nothing to oppose

Blurry lines are drawn on the sand

Where crabs burrow and children build castles

Neptune’s waves echo, crash and land

On the white shore, it’s grain rattles

The rough and soft meld into one, unify

Under the blanket of the blue horizon and clear sky

The light of day and dark of night, unify

As I forget the time swiftly passing by

This is the summer I’ve longed for

This in dreams I summon and bind

Let me stay on this white, sandy shore

Under the blanket with fingers entwined
