She sat
by the bedroom window,
her sights more distant
than snowflakes
descending
from the winter moon.
In her arms,
a heart is locked
inside a treasure chest.
Nobody
not even her mother,
knitting downstairs, knows
she left the key
back home in Nazareth.
note: Nazareth or Barangay Nazareth - a town in Cagayan de Oro City, Philippines
Original Version:
She sat
by the bedroom window,
her sights too remote
than the white cherubs
descending
from the winter moon.
In her arms,
a heart is locked
inside a little treasure chest.
Nobody
not even her mother,
knitting downstairs,
knows
she left the key
back home in Nazareth
by the bedroom window,
her sights more distant
than snowflakes
descending
from the winter moon.
In her arms,
a heart is locked
inside a treasure chest.
Nobody
