Fidelity

This is my favorite among the suite of poems I have submitted to this year's Palanca Awards, celebrating the loyalty and faithfulness of a man's heart.

With all my life, I love

You; I have never

wanted anyone else; I

have always wanted to

be with you...

I plan to build a

Home where you

Will be the queen

I want you to be

The mother of my kids

To hold your hand

When things get rough

And destiny yearns

Whenever I work or

When I play, nothing

Else runs in my

Mind....

I want to wake up

And sleep beside you

I have always wanted

To give you the world

And walk down the aisle

But I can’t....

Because my wife will kill me.
