Amping
You once asked me how it feels to
live far from home,
and I told you in Cebu, the first
words I learned wasn’t maayong buntag—
but amping.

She caresses the ground,
Fertility in her sleeve—
Awakening the earth,
In its breathing slumber—
Planting a flowerbed.
a poem on how our view of love changes over time

but love is love, nonetheless.
love ought to make you grateful to be alive: love makes you want to be alive
so love, my love
