the cebu life

contentment

i am learning peacefulness
in the captured moments
of my lenses that never tire
of observing, absorbing, seeping
each drop of life.

i am trying serenity
on days that dampen my spirit
and on nights when moon
descends and sits on my shoulders
to rest.

i am searching for tranquility
in people whose lives
intertwine with mine
and whose stories are a struggle
for that hallowed sphere
of placid living.

i am learning peacefulness.
