like you when i was young
i like being alone. I like the adventure
and i do not want anyone
to know, what happened there.
Ermita and Cafe Adriatico, then
Tagaytay, lots of Taal, and so many
interesting secrets in Benguet,
in Samal island.

then the shadow of loneliness hovered over me
and i begin to chill,
sick of myself, and wanting to be with another.

sometimes no one talks to you.
and you do not like to talk to anybody.

no man is an island. You remember that.
so i look for someone. Whoever arrives in my life
with a white rose in her dress
i will marry.

no wooing. Just an agreement.
Then it happened. One day you wake up
with someone beside you and you are both too tired and
naked.

Then you stick it out together.
As though you are one melon.
When you are sliced
You already look the same.
Red all over. Inside and out.
