Vast gloomy skies
Covered by unseen cries
Shed with much of agony
All alone, full of unknown
We paint curves
Even we tend to embrace
A dusk emptied by death
Of a vast constellstion
The affection between us
Turns to break us
Slowly, the gap between us
Swallows the term once we had “us”
As air swifts
My love for you beats
Sounds like the beat of drum
Reverberating the anthem of love
Two opposite sides
Parallel to each other
The universe is not meant for us
Even the world erodes our lines
Jerome Catigbe Poetry
