I love you because, you're so beautiful. Something you possess that I admire the most. You're the only one that I adore. To appreciate and cherish forever.

I love you because, you give me hope. You accept my love and all what I am. You're so sincere and down to earth. You are with me and always on my mind.

I love you because, you're words touch my heart. Your kindness and smile really turn me on. Sometimes you make me happy, sometimes sad. You can drive me crazy, I don't know why.

I love you because, you believe in me. Honestly binds our hearts all the time. Assurance of love, trust and faithfulness. You give me confidence and peace of mind.

I love you because, you're so thoughtful. You are strong, you support my weaknesses. When we argue, you show humbleness that makes me love you even more.

I love you because of what you are. God has made you part of my life and I just love you because, without you now, my life is worthless.

TUESDAY, 5:21 PM - a piece of my thought howlin' inside my saddened lonely heart…and just let it burst…

HERE I stand beneath the dreams I left behind, whether stormy weather pushes it all back, no hope but a poignant sigh…

The sand in my time is darkened by the eclipse of changing society, will I ever spread again the wings of virility forsaken by the strokes of the divine…

Rains sweep my tears as I smolder the memoirs of my virginal soundness and daintiness, I look everywhere and found nothing only desolation and decay…

If summer sun brings me another dawn in my old and tired shaking hands, spare me a canvass and I'll show you the dreams I left behind…

HAPPY EASTER, may the Lord Jesus Christ renew your faith, hope and love!

TAIPEI CITY, Taiwan - A poem submitted by Mr. Jun Sanchez, President of Samahang Makata International (Taiwan). Samahang Makata International is a Filipino organization of poetic and creative writers overseas.

I'm the Overseas Contract Worker, wherever I go, I'll do my best performing my job with dignity in exchange of dollars to meet my dreams.

I learned to adopt another culture, to travel and see other places. I survive different kinds of seasons in exchange of exotic lifestyle.

I'm very friendly and helpful, my service is appreciated, host is grateful. Trusted by employers and their families, I considered them all of my friends.

Yet some are not as lucky, those whose employers are mean and cruel. Workers are treated unjustly no freedom, no rights, no security to enjoy.

As a stranger I do consider, follow or host and sacrifice harder. To avoid conflict, I do must be careful, I think of my dreams, I'm ready to crawl.

For me, working abroad is extremely hard, but my family's future is in my hand and as soon as my contract ends, I'm happy to be back in my native land.

LORD keep me safe from the pain

and grief that sin brings.

For the dangers that I can't see,

or the ones that I think I can risk

because of my experience (pride and carelessness),

put up a supernatural barrier.

Protect me, FATHER, by your power!

LORD, keep me safe from temptations that pull

at my emotions and my physical needs, that call out

to my sense of what I deserve, what I have the "right"

to feel and enjoy. Because YOU are the TRUE

source of all that is really LIFE, direct my steps

away from all that is NOT of YOU…

And JABEZ called on the GOD of Israel saying,

"Oh, that YOU would bless me indeed,

and enlarge my territory,

that YOUR hand would be with me,

and that YOU would keep me from evil,

that I may not cause pain!"

So GOD granted him what he requested.
