+ I-Connect Memory Poem by Jordan Legaspi

I-connect memory


In her eyes –the crying
Of the thirty years she kept
Bare hands toil; weak knee on kneeling
To find strength and reach the ending

In her eye –the loosening
Of the thirty years she treasured
The devotion; the dedication of her king
Ones enthroned and ones owned

In her eye –the dying
Of the thirty years chaise and hunt
The ghost of so disturbing
That after all her weakness his breeding

In her eye –the remembering
Of the thirty years she fought
Against the fate’s controlling
So deadly and that she remained in the truth

In her eye –the longing
Of the thirty years had passed
Filled with love and it the caring
From the man she ones loved

In her eye –the praying
For the thirty years to finally rest
To its tomb, only god is the awaiting
Thus, to him and her be the forgiving breast
