A KIND OF BURNING
it is perhaps because
one way or the other
we keep this distance
closeness will tug as apart
in many directions
in absolute din
how we love the same
trivial pursuits and
insignificant gewgaws
spoken or inert
claw at the same straws
pore over the same jigsaws
trying to make heads or tails
you take the edges
i take the center
keeping fancy guard
loving beyond what is there
you sling at the stars
i bedeck the weeds
straining in song or
profanities towards some
fabled meeting apart
from what dreams read
and suns dismantle
we have been all the hapless
lovers in this wayward world
in almost all kinds of ways
except we never really meet
but for this kind of burning.
This poem is similar to our relationship as a couple. The poem is about love thriving more in distance. Me and my hubby Pepe are not apart. We've been together for the past seventeen years but there seems to be a "distance" between us. We don't jibe most of the time regarding many things. He is the radical type, and I'm more diplomatic. He is short-tempered, but I have a lot of patience. I love summer, but he loves the rainy season.
I am weird, but he's the weirdest, hahaha!

My husband is a bit hard-headed and sometimes aggressive, but I'm more soft and tender. He tends to panic, but I remain calm. Like all couples, we quarrel, we fight, we disagree. Contrary to what our friends may think of us, we have so many things that are not in common. My husband is very intelligent with his highfalutin words, and I'm just my simple self, hehe.
But no matter how we disagree with each other, I always believe in the saying "opposites attract".
you sling at the stars
i bedeck the weeds
And so to my husband: in each trial we've faced throughout our seventeen years together, you have always remained by my side even against all odds. We may not get along together most of the time, but with this kind of burning that we have, our hearts have rolled into one to form a different kind of love, igniting and burning.
Happy 17th anniversary (and 3rd wedding anniversary), my love! ¡Te amo mucho! Let us always live by the words of God, may we continue to remain faithful to each other, as we have promised to God during our wedding, and may we always have more patience in the midst of trials, and more love, compassion, and understanding so that both of us will continue to live happily ever after, together with our five children.
My love for you will always remain, from here to eternity even though we don't always agree in so many ways, but for this kind of burning.
