Echoes In a Crescendo

A single note...

hums;

of silence

Morning Sorrow

I woke up at daybreak

to find a stranger's face beside me

after another night of your absence.

Untitled

Morning light appears...

amber, red and orange sighs;

memories of you lying in my arms

If ever you feel the need

to burn and to bleed;

love and abandon.

It's Hard To Say Goodbye To You

It's hard to say goodbye to you for when it's about time to-we linger over coffee or 
tarry over tea that before I know it, the cocks are crowing, the sun is rising, and 
the clock is showing: five in the morning. 

My mom's all worried, my dad doesn't show it, but I know that they're thinking, 
pacing the room and saying; "she said that she'll be late but no more than half 
past eight!" While I'm with you some place... conversing, laughing and all the 
more lacking; the necessary haste.  

When I state I'm to meet you our dog starts looking blue, my best friend gets 
doubtful, my empty room remains hopeful...I'll be home I swear but with you I end 
up elsewhere. I've tried to explain to them and myself too, that it's simply hard to 
say goodbye to you.

To My Mistress

Softly I leave you....

all silk and ivory

your skin glowing in my memories.

How many times have I left in such a rush?

Too many perhaps

as my spouse has forgotten

my presence in her room

in these past hours

I have stolen with you.

Satin Sheets

Sunlight slowly filtered the room

as you blissfully sleep.

I then realized with utter defeat;

that I hate waking up in a stranger's bed.

Autumn In Manila

We carefully step on summer's sidewalks

and hear stories of your winters...

as spring is to stay forever

all year we look at green leaves.
