The Following poem, I wrote during a brief yet very sultry heat wave near my place here in the U.S. I was wishing for some kind of rain, the kind of rain that’s Philippine in nature. You know, the heavy rain, where everything gets dark, and the splatter of raindrops on concrete and on Palm trees make you want to curl up with your loved one..
I think, the days that are really bad are those really dark and rainy days… when you hear the thunder of the sky…
you want to hug and be close to the one you love, but she’s so far away…
that loneliness is hard to bear, and in those moments trying to get by, is just that… just trying… you don’t really get by, but you hope and you hold on to every good memory.. any memory…
and that smile.. that voice… it resonates in my mind… and it gets me through… it’s the only thing...
