How Deep Is My Love

This is one of my poems written long time ago dedicated to my friend in Siquijor Island—the island of fire.

When I was a flapper, never think anything

Don’t know how is the world been going

Even within myself, I didn’t believe about love

Maybe, when it comes in my heart…I should have.

Until I reach up the stage of adolescence

My world wouldn’t be complete without any presence

Then I realized that love is the key

To brightens, to chase, to guide me everyday.

Consequently, I did not expect that GOD gave me

A unique person with whom I always be

This nice guy loves me all the way

I can’t forgot…every first day of May

That day my heart was caught by somebody.

As we’ve started to a close friendship

And grows deeper to a sweet relationship

Wish that…what we’ve planted to each other’s heart

Hope and pray…no one else would be hurt.

Storms, typhoons, big waves may come my way

Let your love will shelter me and keep stay

For being so nice to be with you

That’s what I am longing for you to do.

Your everlasting love is my sword

Bethink more than in my words

In facing some situations in life

That I should fight for life.

Although both of us we’re restricted with wide miles

It’s hard for me to wave my big smiles

Never mind, when you were here, I’ll open the door

For you I will…how deep is my love?

It can’t be measured nor Ocean floor.
