The Night at the Barrio Fiesta
Do you remember
when we left the baraylehan
early
at midnight
.
It was my alibi,
I really meant to
walk with you
I smiled when you held
my hand.
The nipa leaves
let go of the moon
as the music at the dance
went silent,
I kissed you.
The road was cold
the grass beside it moist
my heart was singing
and dancing
It stopped.
