WHY WE WRITE

You may be wondering as to why we decided on making a website meant solely for publicizing our writings among any other "more suitable" topics to focus on. First things first, by writings, we mean poems, proses, narratives, short stories, articles, and such compositions.


Our concept builds upon the insights undertaken by various researchers and professionals, with our main emphasis being the claim made by the American Psychological Association (APA) which states that writing could relieve stress by combating negative and intrusive thoughts.


We write not solely for bringing our thoughts into the public view. Rather, we seek to bring awareness that writing could bring mental, emotional, and physical benefits for people of all ages, especially during the onslaught of the COVID-19 pandemic.


In lieu to the claim (that is supported by numerous researches), we decided to use this platform as an online journal where we could confide the things we wish to share to other people but we couldn't due to certain circumstances. In this regard, we wish to encourage other people to consider writing as a form of leisure during their pastime as the act of writing by itself is a popular therapeutic practice that helps improve an individual's mental condition by lowering one's anxiety levels and relieving one's stress.


Why do we write?


To heal.

Fictitious Psyche

all i've been wanting is to feel the
sincerity, genuineness, and truth.
for years i've been longing for the
right heart ever since in my days of youth.

the scars of realizations covers up
the skin of innocence and fiction.
living in dreams, a life full of doubt
and a whole city of imagination.

the fear of reality comes with hope,
and to hope, a dream that has been made.
fiction within my heart, thy heart spoke,
"when will you feel?" it said and persuade.

"i hope someday" she said with angst in her
eyes that was filled with zero chances.
the reality and truth that she can never bare,
she smiles and walks away, as she see
these people with romances.

My Ramen Coffee Guy

I'm a modern woman with an old soul.
In the depths of my heart are words to console.
They say I'm feisty and tough.
Somewhere is a sweet spot soft enough.

I'm far from perfection.
I fail and face frustrations.
I'm not good with everything.
But, I'm good in loving.

Let me tell you for sure.
From the beginning I am assured.
It starts from your good morning to good evenings
Your presence kept me believing.

You are stubborn as I thought
You should have retreated
Yet comes back undefeated
You are tougher than I thought

Breaking my conceptions
Unafraid of confrontations
By now you must see
Why I chose ramen and coffee.

Tila Tala

Ika nga, kung anong bukambibig
Siya ring nilalaman ng dibdib.
Kaya hiniling ko kay Bathala
Na sana'y umabot tayo sa sukdulan.

Ngunit sadyang mapaglaro ang tadhana
At ipinagkait tayo sa isa't-isa.
Kaya ako'y pipikit na lamang
At aalalahanin ang mga gunita.

Ang iyong mga mata
Na tila tala kung magningning.
Tila tala rin kung isipin,
Ang distansiya natin sa isa't-isa.

Bathala, maari bang Iyong dinggin
Ang natatangi kong hiling.
Sa una't huling pagkakataon,
Maari bang siya'y aking mahagkan?

Siya na tila talang
Lagi kong tinitingala
Ngunit kailanma'y hindi maabot
At tanging sa dilim lamang maaninag.
