Reminded
By Melany Amante Mabao Maguindanao
The refreshing cold breath of the ocean,
The calming breeze from the gentle sea...
The glistening reflections of the setting sun...
Releases my troubled spirit free.
The rhythmic sound of the waves that rushes to the shore...
Reminds me with memories of the distant past.
Innocence of my younger days that's pure...
Those longings at that time, I thought would last.
Now, standing by the edge of a lonely beach...
Lay memories that time can't erase...
The miles that stretched behind me and my dreams...
I reconnected them with silent screams.
