![]() Tell Me Now or I YieldA Poem by Ma. Aileen Canizares Salibay![]() Smitten like a kitten![]()
Eros's random strikes in my salad days
Often threw me in the river of tears But not once did I gripe For tales of tears and joy never get dull. A stray arrow now hit me once again Odd it is when my eyes meet his A harp plays from heaven to earth Even a thousand masks can't hide blush on my cheeks. He is an opium I couldn't resist The reason behind the air castles I build And though mind unfolds reality It still yields and lets the heart live in fantasy. Blame me not If I turn days into nights For in this field of game I seem to play the role of Eponine. If only dreams had lips, He'd know I am in a fiasco. If only a toss of coin could foresee Then my heart and mind would be at peace. Eros, hear out this weary heart If in this time our love doesn't exist Then be kind and let me rest Cast this spell to his pair instead. © 2015 Ma. Aileen Canizares Salibay |
