Hiraeth Poem by Rommel Galicia
Hiraeth
Did you not hear my plea?
I'm here all alone crying out
This heart of mine feels heavy
Only your comfort I've sought.
Where are you? I am in sore.
My deliverance of your presence
Is all that I am earnestly longing for
I can't withstand your evanescence.
Will I just live and believe in love?
When I feel the wind and hear its gush,
It's your warmth and heart's lub dub
That allay me and let the pain pass?
Will I just be here from afar all alone?
Waiting for a time you and I to unite
In an endless road of love to hold on
A home I long and not only a respite?
