Marites C. Cayetano Poems

Halika sa plaza
at duo'y lakas nati'y sukatin.

Subukan mong sa lupa
ako'y iyong ilugmok
...

The path you have chosen
may be the hard one
for I can see it
in your weary eyes.
...

Oh, no
don't be cruel
don't walk away from me
'cause I have found heaven
...

If, on christmas day
the snow won't fall
and the christmas carols won't play
I promise you my dear
...

Giving
is a wonderful thing to do
but it cease to be wonderful
when the giver desires to get
...

I cry today
'cause tomorrow
I want to smile.
...

We had a pact
'though it was not made with blood
it's still in my heart.
...
