Throw-away Love and Other Poems

Patrickman's picture

Hi! Greetings to you all!

I just completed a new poetry collection. The title of my new work is "Throw-away Love and Other Poems", a collection of poems about love and despair and things in between. It has 24 poems in it, plus 2 bonus ones, and 4 super-hidden ones.

I started and intended to finish it by the middle of last year but because I was a bit lazy and I was doing other things, I decided to just publish it today as a, ehem, Valentines Day offering.

Anyway, please download it and read and comment on and share with others...

Thanks! 

PS: i got a bit nervous on the poetry reading last night, I forgot to promote it to the pips there, darn... :D

Binasa ko hanggang

Binasa ko hanggang dulo.   Below is my TOP 3

1.  Love Dead ---> paalam lang sa sobrang kagustuhan ko kinopya ko sa diary ko, don't worry diko ipo-post sa iba..  pero kung okay lang sayo, pwede ko i-post sa FB?  siyempre lalagay ko na work mo yun... 

2.  Life with Maggots & Limbs and Bones ---> bakit siya naka gray?  I liked the tagalog translation too

3.  Melancholia ---->   Naka relate...

 

(Except for the swearing part - mahirap naman kung walang mai-comment diba?)  For most of your poems, I have had the feeling of "I wish I could have written it myself"

But like I told you before, I am now starting to make a collection of my own poems.  Thanks a lot!

Btw,  I did not have the chance to count how many poems were there?  Ilan nga?  Para alam ko naman kung kelan ako matatapos sa collection hehehe..  Thanks again

tiway! :D

my reactions sa iyong magandang comments: 

 

1.  gusto mo i-post sa FB (facebook?)? hmmmmm.... ok. i don't plan to post it there naman e so sige. thanks! 

2. naka-gray sila kasi they are bonus/unlisted poems. meron pang 4 "super hidden" poems, hehe... btw, anong tagalong translation yung sinasabi mo?

3. salamat at nagustuhan mo, hehe 

 

about the number of poems: there are 24 listed poems, 2 bonus/unlisted poems, and 4 "super hidden" poems, for a total of 30 poems. Ü 

 

salamat! 

 

I'd love to turn you on...

maka-download na nga rin...

 

gaya nang naipangako ni Ruthie kay Patrickman, babasahin niya ang mga tula nito at sisikaping makapagbigay ng makabuluhang komento bagamat siya'y isa rin lamang baguhan.

 

grabe, dami mo na palang nagawang tula, bilib na ako sa sipag at tiyaga mo... tatakbo ka bang Presidente?  kaya lang ayoko yung title na Throw-Away Love... ewan, may gusto ko yung tinuran ng isang makata na:  "love is an ever-fixed mark that looks on tempests and is never shaken."

 

Sige.  :)

salamat!

haha, ngayon mo pa lang  pala na-download... so, ano naman reaction mo sa mga tula? btw, dapat basahin mo hanggang sa huli para ma-appreciate mo nang lubusan ang kabuuan ng koleksyon. and try to find the hidden poems if you can, hehe.

 

salamat sa pagbasa! :D

 

I'd love to turn you on...

tulang nakatago sa mga tula?

 

hi-hidden poems?  may ganun pa?  grabe, paghahanapin mo pa pala ako, ang lufeet.  teka, masiyado ka namang demanding.  babasahin ko pa sila, di pa ako nagsisimula pero mahirap yatang basahin nang minsanan, maliban na lamang kung magandahan ako sa mga tula, ganun lang yun.

hosha.

hey patrick!

 

i'm almost done reading your collection - almost since i still have to find your four hidden poems.  (i think the two grayed out poems are the bonus ones - life with maggots & limbs and bones)

 

indeed it was a journey of emotions - from unrequited love to heartbreak and such. i didnt' think such expressions of pain and disappointment can come from a young male writer 'coz i always see guys as the heartbreakers.  the words used and the emotions evoked are very familiar in the sense that i've felt, said, and thought of the same things. 

 

it's a very nice collection with my favorites being: 

wala na ang saya

kagabi

rebound guy

limbs and bones

olats

 

thanks!

thank you for reading! yeah... most of the time the guys break hearts, so said you, but girls can do the job better from time to time also, hehehe... :D

thanks again! :D

 

I'd love to turn you on...
