Pagitan

Illustration by Szara

Sa pagitan ng dito at doon

ng ngayon at nakalipas

ng sa kasalukuyan at bukas

ay ang minimithing pag-ibig

na may mapagpalayang kinabukasan

In between distance and time, there is a dream and longing of a higher love that is free from the chains of everyday classist and sexist ideals, and framework of loving and living.
