Won't you meet me out in the moonlight alone?

Posted on February 7, 2008 by batjay

pag sanay ka na may katabi sa higaan ay medyo mahirap pag bigla itong nawala. iba ang tulog ko pag duty si jet ng pang gabi. nagigising ako parati sa madaling araw at hindi ako agad nakakatulog. minsan nanonood na lang ako ng mga late night soft porn sa cable TV o kaya ay nagbabasa ng burikak na bastos magazine. pero kadalasan ay pumipikit na lang ako at hinihintay ang pagbalik ng antok.

after 17 years kasi na pagsasama, hinahanap hanap mo na yung mahinang hilik at yung katawan na nakaakap sa iyo habang pareho kayong nakatalukbong sa kumot. hindi ko nga ma imagine kung ano ang nararamdaman ng isang taong biglang nawalan ng asawa.

mahirap talaga, lalu na pag on the road ka at sa hotel ka natutulog, ang hirap talagang makatulog pagwala si misis na katabi. Ganun din pag overseas ang travel. kaya nga sabi nila eh, ‘home sweet home’.

— gusto mo na rin daw mawala. yan ang feeling ng nanay when my father passed away. 31 years of marriage.

-unkyel, hindi ko ma imagine if they pass away, but when my first husband moved out, it was as if a death of a loved one…even though i wanted that divorce.

i am not a fan of valentine’s day. it’s a business scheme….even christmas or easter. we should all treat each other as if everyday is a celebration of love, birth, and new beginnings.

unkyel, you should check out the steak & BJ (http://www.steakandbjday.com/) day on March 13(14?). it’s the guys answer to valentine’s day to chicks. =P but that should only be a once a week thing vs. everyday, if not once a month. haha!

masakit pa rin kahit ayaw mo na?

oo nga ate glo. marami ring pagkakataon sa ibang tao na mas maganda mawala na lang.

don’t I know what you mean Pa. kaya nga whenever I get the chance, masaya na ako when I can cuddle with you under the sheets, kahit yung 5 mins. lang before I have to get ready for work. I get so much strength and motivation from that. I know I’ll miss cuddling with you like that for the next 3 or 4 nights but it’s something I look forward to doing again after the work stretch is over. and if I may say so myself, I wonder at the fact that we’ve been at it for over 16 years but it seems like we still can’t get enough of it.

it must be love. 😀

it was sad that it had to end even though i wanted it to end. i know, it’s weird, but the sadness didn’t last for for long… i believe for every parting good or bad, you still grieve over the loss of something, someone….

di bale mari, may bago ka nang papa kaya di na magtatagal.

minsan nanghihinayang ka sa mga posibilidad na hindi nangyari at sa mga nangyaring walang pinuntahan.

Isipin mo nalang na mas-sweet pa ang pag-cuddle kapag bumalik sa regular schedule ang inyong bedtime hugging. Ganyan din ang aking nararamdaman kapag may trabaho si Dennis sa ibang lugar at wala akong katabi sa gabi. Kahit alam kong panandalian lang naman ito, lungkot na lungkot pa rin ako.

unkyel batjay, tatlong taon na po akong reader ng blog nyo pero ngayon lang po ako mag-i-iwan ng comment.

talagang saludo po ako sa inyo kapag si Ms Jet at Nanay nyo na ang topic. Ms Jet and your mom are very fortunate to have you.

katulad nyo rin po ako hindi po ako makatulog ng maayos kapag wala ang asawa ko, lalo na kapag duty rin siya ng late. nung minsan po na nagkaroon ako ng 3 weeks assignment away from him, we depended on Skype. He kept it on while i’m sleeping and I in turn kept it on while he’s sleeping. medyo OA pero okay lang, buti na lang libre ang skype.

sana po ma-meet ko kayo in person para naman po makapag-thank you ako sa inyo for the daily dose of laughter from your blog.

let me know po kung sakaling magawi kayo dito sa east coast. I-email ko po sa inyo ang contact info ko kung okay lang.

dear pangga,

maraming salamat sa pagsulat. natutuwa ako pag may comment na galing sa overseas pinoy na tulad mo. alam ko kasi na marami tayong mga common experiences – isa na yang pagtulog, or yung lack ng pagtulog pag wala ang asawa. may plano nga kami ni jet na bumisita sa east coast. di ko pa alam kung kailan.

ingat na lang at hanggang sa muli.
jay

Hi Jay,

when i was posted in saudi arabia the first time in 1982, my wife told me she kept the shirt, brief and shorts i used the nite before i flew so she can always have something to touch or smell whenever she misses me. She said it works! We have been married 32 years and still going strong. hope you and your lab goes a long way also!

all the best!

bosing,

nagba-backtrack ako ng posting ng mga berks. peborit loveteam ko talaga kayo ni jet. very touching, honest and funny itong post mong ito. minsan iniisip ko rin ang nakaraan kapag nakikita ko, sa aking paggising na andoon na naman ako side ng kama ko, at bakante ang kabilang side. pero okay lang, it gets better. pero totoo, masaya ang may kayakap sa dilim. 🙂

batjay on March 2, 2008 at 5:41 am said:

minsan ok lang na bakante sa kabilang side jop. lalo na para sa iyo – parang binibigyan mo ng space para pag dumating yung hinahanap mo ay mayron kang paglalagyan.
