MADNESS
By Jeffrey V. Tolentino
Such a fair lady!
Heaven must’ve held you dearly
Long and dark, undulating hair
A set of deep, brown eyes
A tiny nose and pink lips
How must one love you?
You stand fragile like a tenuous early rose
And yet possess the high-spirit of a hawk
Your soft voice awarded me bliss
Like an undertow pulling me down
Deep into the sea of madness.
One asks on what price
