I Still Have Your Loveletters

I still have your love letters by the way.
Enveloped with the love I can still give until today.
I still read them as if we didn’t mutter our goobyes and curse each other every night.
I tucked them gently closer to my chest and try to reminsce all the memories we thought can outstand the rest.

 I still have your love letters by the way
though I have seen you across the street with somebody,
You changed your status to in a relationship today
You have never bothered greeting me on my birthday 
and have seenzoned all my messages on a Christmas Day.
But who cares?h
I have your love letters anyway. 

I still have your love letters by the way
though you never talked to me 
we never patched things like it should be
we let the wolves howl our longings to the moon
and you never move an inch in your hate throne.
Nevertheless, your loveletters are still at home.

Each night, I read them again and again
mouthing every word as if freshly spoken, 
remembering a shadow who once promised his love never be shaken
and shaming oneself for the desperate waiting.
Until that time when grief has spent itself,
regrets become jokes in private,
pains no longer hide in the closet,

I’ll keep the loveletters waiting for just one final visit.

Work of Love

The greatest thing you'll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return.
                                 -Christian, Moulin Rouge
  
   In our great search of love, we can meet different people. There are people who we vowed to marry someday but we didn't. There are people who promised us to be their bride but ended up keeping other women's girdle. And there are just people who appeared in the story and just made a chapter of you and me. That is Gly-Gly's story!


         I met Glendaleine Obena in Blessed Trinity College. We used to work together and we used to do stuffs together (Not allowed to mention). The chemistry is just so natural that we ended up calling each other "Babes". I have seen her blushed, get hurt and finally get married. Now, to celebrate friendship and also to update this blog, I'm giving you some of the shots during their Prenup Session.
                                                                                                                                                                 
          Our photo locations are mostly in Bien Unido. First location was in Swan Lake located at Liberty, Bien Unido, Bohol and second location was in Tikang-kang Beach Resort, still in Bien Unido. It was not a thoroughly planned Prenup session. On June 11,2016, she informed me that they have crossed off  Prenuptials from the list because there were no available photographers. I was alarmed. Since I'm a maniac when it comes to these stuffs. I volunteered to be their photographer (such confidence) and even told her that I'll look for the location, props and of course, wardrobes. Because of my confidence and undying love for Gly-Gly, I prepared the stuffs to be used.



        And on June 12, 2016, we made these shots....
A woman is like a flower. She will bloom when taken care of.

We are in our happiest state when we are with the person we love and respect

The secret of a happy marriage is finding the right person.

This is my favorite shot in the first location.

Find something you're passionate about and keep tremendously interested in it.

Finding the right person can be so hard that often, when a person finally finds someone she or he is comfortable with, she or he just makes it work.

          I would like to thank Gly-gly for the friendship. To Juvelyn Teves, Thank you for the props and help! To Christian Melencion, Thank you for gearing up for the photoshoot. To my sister, Michelle, Thank you for the wardrobe.

Love is not something we have to work for, search for and worry for. It'll come eventually and it will be the most magical thing in the world.

Love,
Cielo
