kahit madalas
kinakapos ang kanyang hininga
para dalhin ako sa iyo.
nasaan ba ang tahanan?
ilang ihip ng hangin ba
ang tatangay sa isang dahon
para makabalik sa paanan
ng kanyang pinagmulan?
And the virus is heating up. Gathering momentum. It moves through life, one terrible headline at a time. The novel coronavirus worms its way into everything with every new, terrible record; the most new infections, the highest number of deaths.
I woke up this morning and I don't feel like checking on you anymore. I just don't care what you wear, what you post on your social media accounts and I don't know why.
I looked up in the sky and it's still gray
I wonder if it's still going to be okay
When I'm on the verge of breaking
I know I needed to do anything
Not to collapse after being humiliated
To recover after being stabbed and get rejected
