Marites C. Cayetano Poems

I listen
because I can hear
I talk
because I have words to say
...

I'm alive
they call my name
they talk to me
they ask me if I'm alright
...

It made me smile
it made me frown
it made me cry
it made me just lay down
...

I say goodbye
so you can begin your journey
...without me.

Turn your back on me
...

Season.changed many times
only the moon knows
how much tears I cried
through my serenade to the moon.
...

Like the leaf from the tree
I hope the wind will carry you
infront of my door.
...

He, who calls you a sinner
is also a sinner
for he, who is not a sinner
is busy doing
...

I‘m letting you go
not because
I don‘t want you anymore
but because
...

My words
you do not care
for you are still
a captive
...

Children are born
to give us joy
to give us hope
to give us fear
...
