At the Church in UP Diliman
by Wanda Martina Albano


I sit here

Where many a desperate soul

must have sat

searching for God in this cold stone edifice

oblivious to the warm beating heart beside



Where faithful must have knelt

Pouring a thousand dreams

Into lifeless beads

Solitary in this place of gathering





And when they leave

So do their faiths

Tucked in worn out prayer books

Hiding their wounds in laughter

While they live their lives again

Forgetting that the gods have already died.
