Speak in my love language🍷🥃
Amihan 🌬The days are shorter. My brain, foggier. My attention span, fuzzier. My lips, quieter. The nights? Colder. And lately, all l I seem to have patience for are a few pages of short stories which echo louder...longer.
They didn’t know
I tried to keep the ocean still
So they can see you.
— S.S. “Full Moon”

I can hear you call my name
As raindrops fall from the sky
and from my eyes
I miss you baby
Is there a love rain
On days like these?
Summer’s lost and winter’s gone
More days to fall.
- 𝑆.𝑆. “Rainy Days” 📖
Back story: Written many years ago in Osaka near Ishikiri while walking home. It was pouring and you suddenly get that feeling of missing someone in the rain. You can read about that day on p.19 of my book #inBetween. It eventually became a song. 😉

Matagal-tagal na kitang
hindi nasisilayan.
Sabik na kong makalakbay
at makita kang muling masaya
at malaya sa sakit.
Sakit mula sa paghihirap
sa pagpapabaya
sa pagdadalamhati.
Sa pagkakataong ito,
gusto kong magpasalamat
sa mga panahong
napanatag mo ang loob ko
sa bawat alon ng buhay,
at hinayaang makaramdam ng ginhawa
kasabay ng hangin mong
parang duyan kung maglambing.
Sa muli nating pagkikita.
Doon ulit sa ating tagpuan
sa may dagat
bago lumubog ang araw

In between delays and retrogrades (yes, we have four planets this month: mercury, mars, neptune and uranus), the new moon tonight has risen and gifted me with the paperback copies of my book. They’re finally here, and on their way to you. Thank you for your patience! 🙏🏼
It’s a little surreal to sign my first book, and a little overwhelming to be alone here surrounded by all these books. It would have been nice to have people around tonight. 🧡
