THE AUDACITY OF DISTANCE

By Plea Ann Lusotan

Reminiscing those times when everything goes so smoothly

Paying no attention to those against us was so easy;

You kept my life away from its banality;

You made my life COLORFUL AND EXCITING more every day

Hearing your voice narrating your experiences in getting to know me

Makes me appreciate my own natural beauty

Every single effort you made was so extraordinary

That made my DAY FULL OF MEMORY

But life can sometimes be unfair

We have the will, others differ

We have the courage, others have fear

We INSIST TO SMILE STILL TEARS WILL FELL

We once MADE A PROMISE NOT TO BROKEN PROMISES

To tensely protect the relation from its challenges

Fight it with firm and decisiveness

So that you and I can have that happiness
