In shadow I gaze into the day ahead <br />A view as age is taking my existence <br />Where to settle down? <br />My heart and soul inquiry <br /> <br />To my native land that cultured my youth <br />America - I took his vigor <br />to fight the social cancer - being poor <br />Both gave my life delight <br /> <br /> <br />When my strength will fade away <br />I am confused where to go <br />Being a Filipino and an American <br />Both delight are hardly to choose <br /> <br />My heart and soul are in crisscross <br />as well as with my thoughts to choose <br />But my heart and soul said this to me <br />' I love my native land so help me God '<br /><br />Ency Bearis<br /><br />http://www.poemhunter.com/poem/crisscross-3/
