 MY PARTS OF SPEECH IS YOU
BY: JOCPHIMIRTH M. BERMUDO

I’m sorry if I wire you this late.

I don’t know your name yet, but can I call you mine? I kept on
remembering you since last night. I have been dumbfounded by your
countenance as if, I was struck by a thunderbolt from the heavens. You alone I
wish to be with. You are more than a noun to me, the pronouns you and mine
are yours. You give me life, the verb of my soul that links me internally and
acts externally as well to make me whole. You bring meaning to my life, my
adjective, and I, your adverb.

How I wish we could be linked by the prepositions of life that our souls
be in conjunction to God. As we acclaim our earnest interjections of thanks
and praise, may we always be a part of each other and our parts of speech is
nothing but happiness.
