Waling Waling EcoVillage, Calaguas

bid me goodnight

kiss me with your gentle light;

my heart full and eager for

tomorrow i bathe in your sure warmth.

in the shifting shadows

when light dances with the dark

there is beauty and grace

magnified

light is more pronounced

by the darkness that precedes it.

My heart, in grief
Searches for you
There is no anguish deeper
Than not knowing your heart
Have you gone resolutely
Into the arms of another?
Unable to wait
While I remain where you left me.


*****
My heart, in grief

Searches only for You

When there seems no relief

I cling to Your truth

Holding fast in the belief

Your love will see me through.
