My Queen,
Like graduating from the school,
like cooking, like writing et al
I have come to know that good things
don't come easily, a fact that explained that
healthy relationship isn't easily placed.

I don't have problem with you and loving you,
but with those people who want me to miss you.

You've become the basic tenet
of my talking, reasoning, writing
and the reason why I live.

I did not mean taking you for granted
and pray you brush my wrongs to you,
if there was any.

You're splendid and nice
but the CIAO by you meaning goodbye
is a fact that explained that
you want me to join my ancestors untimely
and have written a eulogy on me.

I have been emotionally unhealthy since you said CIAO and here I am saying, I am sorry.

« return.
