Digesting a Heartbreak

and as the sky is falling down it crashed into this lonely town

and he says something and she smiles.

are all over written on the signs

and choose love or sympathy, but never both

She lets her lips curl into a resigned smile. "Wag mo na itanong."
He laughs and looks away.

to the love i left my conscience pressed, between the pages of the bible in the drawer
what did it ever do for me I say
she thought about it and laughed
Maybe, but she has more pride than jealousy, if it comes
down to that.
