The Love Wanders
John Leaster Caballes Javellana 1997 (Surigao City)
I have been thinking
This heart keeps asking
The answers are confusing
This mind tells searching
Soles are kissing the ground
Legs are up and down
Ears hear left and right
Eyebrows are creating an arch
My eyes watch people on two’s
My head turn where gravity calls
My toes wave it feels cold
My feet ask where to go
About this poem
This poem is about searching for a love partner while sad and a little bit jealous of others. It is a poem that wants to discover how love can make the person happy if it ever finds him. And all this wanting is wandering love asking where it should be led to.
