Looking Back

The wheel of time
passes like the streams
our feelings sultry at times
still soothing even in mountain breeze
keeping our hearts in line

Lots of xpectations and demands
caused us sorrows and pains
but we have grown with it
we have come to live and learn

Turning, gushing and wishing
the reclaimed fantasies lurking
but keeping our efforts at bay
until the signs of Love is laid

Yes, it took us years to articulate
magic words we have ignored
putting that time behind us now
and thanks to a friend
as we share the joys of our vow

Holding your hands in my dreams
made a tingling in my heart
I know that I will always love you
but fearing that you might go


Knowing the love as we supposed
offering the gift of self in force
keeping that sweet little smile
even as we are distant for a little
while...

Additional Info:

Mayon Volcano is an active volcano in the Philippines on the island of Luzon, in the province of Albay in the Bicol Region. Its almost perfectly-shaped cone is considered by some to be the Philippine equivalent of Mount Fuji in Japan. The volcano is situated 15 kilometres northwest of Legazpi City.

Mayon is classified by volcanologists as a stratovolcano (composite volcano). Its symmetric cone was formed through alternate pyroclastic and lava flows. Mayon is the most active volcano in the country, having erupted over 50 times in the past 400 years. It is located between the Eurasian and the Philippine Plate, at a convergent plate boundary: where a continental plate meets an oceanic plate, the lighter continental plate overrides the oceanic plate, forcing it down; magma is formed where the rock melts. Like other volcanoes in the Pacific Ocean, Mayon is a part of the "Pacific Ring of Fire".
