Marites C. Cayetano Poems

You have known me strong
you have known me lucky
you have known me wealthy
and now I cannot tell you
...

Katulad ng ulan
o malakas na bagyo
kung ang buhay mo ngayon
ay tila kaybigat dalhin
...

Listen dear...
listen to the whisper of the wind...
it's springtime soon!
...

She won't tell you what she wants
but she smiles
when she gets what she wants.
...

Mga halakhak
kaunting bangayan
maya't-maya'y luha
muli'y, mga halakhak...
...

habang ang mundo ay himbing
alam kong mga anghel sa kalangitan
ay nakikigalak
sa aking pagdiriwang
...

I decided not to cry
'cause I know
you cannot wipe my tears
I decided not to ask
...
