sorrow ***** CEBU ISLAND AND OTHER SORROWS
Here where I built my name
My success my failure my pain
In an island where my dreams were built and perished
Pre-law studies public admin masteral
Collegiate debates amateur mountaineering
Freelance photography Christian brotherhood
Constitutional advocates neutral ideologist
impulsive emotions and human lust
Painful to look back
The idealism the struggle
The hunger and the lust
The lust that slaved my flesh
With horrible love
An erotic love
From suicidal woman’s heart
I can still hear her scream
Longing to captive my brain
To capture my name
I escaped empty
Goodbye beautiful queen city
Of the south
Goodbye dreams and pride
Now I keep on swallowing temporary defeats
