For Toto



i should have told you

that love is

more than being warm

in bed,

more than individuals

seeking an accomplice...

even more

than wanting to share.

i could have said

that love at best

is giving what you need to give.

but it was raining

and we had no place to go...

and riding through EDSA in a cab,

i remembered

that words are only necessary

after love

has gone.

Hi g_mirage! How I wish I took that photo. :D It was taken by a shutterbug friend of mine who is based in Baguio. Nice 'no? Thanks for visiting.

Lovely words, you; and the picture equally so.
