Label?

As I was about to take my medicines, I suddenly noticed its label. Those labels speak of what they are or what they stress of. My consciousness brought me to an endeared friend of mine whose belief in labelling one’s relationship is just a product of a modern inquisitive assuring society. Her acts and his, stands alone as labels. Labels that is more to than friendship, exceeds the effort of caring and dismantles the rules of affection. The act of giving yourself so that the other feels it and vice versa is a label in cloak. It maybe sillier to think but that’s how love affects our own unique lives. True love doesn’t need distinction or labels. Just what Christ taught us: love unconditionally. To end, I would like to share my friend’s endearing tagalong poem which demonstrates her unlabelled but heartfelt emotions for her man.

''laging nagkakaintindihan

laging nagkakaunawaan

laging masaya

basta't magkasama

ngit, halakhak, at tawa

kadalasan sa tuwina

hindi nagpapabaya

magkatuwang sa lahat ng problema

magkaibigan nga ba

o sadyang pinipigilan

ang damdaminng tunay

na dapat sa isat-isa ay ialay?

bow...’’

Label? Anyone?
