Plainview Subdivision

'We shared the same street
the trees, the green gate
and the little sari-sari store
we shared the skies, the rains
the clouds and thunderstorms
and after many, many years
as I visit this place once again
it has changed a lot...
less trees, no more green gate
and gone was the sari-sari store
for the people living here now
we are the forgotten memories
but as for me...
as I walked around the street
I can still feel our bonding
our sadness, our laughter
our never ending dreams
it's all around and everywhere.'
