Union of a Butterfly from a Cheetah

She-
Like a cocoon, enveloped with white lace
Void of noise and sight
Seeing only the man of her dreams (or is he?)
Like a butterfly in metamorphosis
Everything changes
Everything, for her feels like the first time
Surname, signature from paper to paper, a house,
Mother and father becomes two
As she spreads her wings for the new life,
Tear, as heavy as a boulder,
Drops, 
witnesses cannot distinguish as from
euphoric joy of her Love or overwhelm thought of forced entry into his Life 
Rolls down to her angelic but double-cheeked face
Results to heavy breathing, piercing sobbing
made by the thought of his sharp dagger that abruptly swerved her life
all at the same time makes it difficult for her to utter the vow
Which makes the witnesses sob with her malady
But necessity tells her she has to...
for she has to...
             because she has to...


He-
Like a savannah, barren of guilt and shame
Void of estrogen, overflowing with testosterone
Seeing the woman of his dreams (or is she?)
Like a cheetah in his first great catch
Nothing changes
Everything, on its way to monotony
Same surname, same signature, ink just blots down from paper to paper,
                same house, only the mother and father becomes two,
As he runs fast for the new life,
Taking with him his great catch
Not even a teardrop, witnesses cannot distinguish as from
Exhibition of machismo or misplaced pride
Results to lax breathing, emotionless
Utter the vow as if it’s just a wind that passed by  

*alay kay Volta, nawa'y maging sapat ang pagmamahal para malampasan ang mga drama ng buhay
