Marites C. Cayetano Poems

Ang Tao
ay nagiging malakas
o mahina
nang dahil sa tao.
...

This night
will be long
untill
you come home.
...

1 4 3
I don't mean
I love you
...

Butterfly
so naughty of you
I'm working here
you're playing there.
...

Oh, you lovely moon
why can't you be here by my side
now that I need you here by my side
the spirit is drying
...

Nakakita ng pag-asa
sa munting liwanag mong tangan
sabihin man nilang
ginagawa mo'y pagsasayang lang ng oras
...

It's been a while
and I've been missing you
oh, hello
hello hello
...

It's nice to hear from you
when the moon is shy to come out
to see me smile
while I drink my wine.
...

I was born naked
and so you are
we will die either
with people's tears of sadness
...
