Letter Poem to My Family



Tatay, Nanay, Nene

My one and only family

How precious you are to me!

To whom shall I compare thee?



No one can surpass your love to me

Despite my flawed personality

How beloved you are to me!

To whom shall I exchange thee?



Whatever bad things I say and do

To the three of you

Whether be it false or true

Without you, my life is worthless and bad too.
