The first time I met you...

I wrote this the first time I met you-know-who. I actually forgot about this until this afternoon while I was cleaning out my box...


"Esmeralda"

Isang umaga sa gitna ng mga batuhang lansangang
Rubi at esmeralda,
Ika'y aking nakita
Ikaw'y naliligaw, nawawala, naghahanap,
Natutuwa akong natulungan ka.

Isang umaga sa gitna ng mga kalsadang
Rubi at esmeralda,
Ika'y aking nakita
Ikaw'y nasilayan, napagmasdan at nakilala,
Ikinagagalak kong napaglingkuran ka.

Ikalawang araw ng paghaharap,
Kita'y nakadaupang-palad,
Bawat katagang namutawi sa iyong mga labi
Ay aking ninamnam
Ano'ng saya't nakadaupang-palad ka.
Ay! Sana'y kaparis kita ng nadarama.



I was never able to finish this out... but I like how it all played out..

I don't know when I'll come back to this poem but I definitely would like to  be there as this story unfold.


Cheers!
