You came in the form of a storm. <br />You washed away those huge houses <br />And have let mud enter this place. <br /> <br />For weeks, pure water was a need. <br />It’s not the time to waste food. <br />There’s no time to crack a bad joke. <br /> <br />But while I was thinking of you <br />And the things you’ve brought to this land <br />I knew that you’re love in disguise. <br /> <br />For so many years, we’re hardened. <br />It’s not wise to trust each other <br />But you’ve let us see that we care. <br /> <br />In that perilous hour <br />We gave our hands to the needy <br />And our resources to the poor. <br /> <br />Love, please stay and never leave us. <br />Let not death be the solution <br />Just to make us love each other. <br /> <br />I ask that you will grow in us. <br />Let us choose you instead of death <br />But I thank you for making us care.<br /><br />Obed dela Cruz<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/love-in-disguise/
