My August Quest
(Flower of May 1981)
A poem of mine published in Broadsheet,
Manila Bulletin dated November 27, 2002, in the section JUST FOR KICKS under subsection DIARIES.
It was just an ordinary day,
That turned out into something special .
I never expect that it would happen in my life,
An affair that's carved forever in my heart.
It was ne'er designed to changed my life,
But it did happen,
I try to resist but it is of no use,
Cause I'm too weak and you are to strong.
I wanted to blame myself,
For being your prey.
But I have to be honest with myself,
That I enjoy every moment of it.
Everyday I always think of you,
And always looking forward to that day,
That I'll see you again
How blissful my heart is.
I know that my simple happiness,
Would only last for a day.
Because I know you are not meant for me.
A fact I have known long before.
I know I am stupid,
But hell I don’t care , it’s killing me.
If I would delude myself of what I truly feel.
Even once in a while.
But I never dream of having you
For the rest of my life,
Because I'm fully aware that it would be impossible,
You already belong to someone else.
