Haniko Bernardo Poem
Is there ever going to be a lonelier picture
of me facing a moon that hides
behind a cloud of rain?
Or of me watching you from afar
and loving you at arms length?
Is there?

Haniko Bernardo Poem
To Kris
I shall not count the nights when woes break down my door
Preying brutally on the affliction that corrupts my soul
I shall not count the tears that have dared to break my courage
Only the moments of bravery in the midst of this carnage
I shall not mourn for the evil that has befallen my womb
with words of darkness, despair, and impending doom
Instead I shall call out your name on my lips with utmost love
And carve out a memory as glorious as the skies above
My dearest son, your untimely passing has created a void
But a space filled with both anguish and a flicker of hope
And i shall not embrace my suffering as to kiss death's throne
For i know even in your passing you are back home
Loving you Eternally,
Your Mother

Haniko Bernardo Poem
He looked out the window
his hair cascading down his shoulders
The world was silent then
Except the beating of my heart
And he had me there that night
in a fraction of a second
