Wondering

Saudia Danih 1993 (Zamboanga Sibugay)



I often remember yesterday, if
only the beauty of life could be changed,
maybe it would be easy to leave.  
I also often think about death as
I think about hope.
Maybe I am just tired  wrestling with
the old order. And
I wonder how come
I could still greet the morning with a smile.
