I am from ballroom
Flowing chiffon evening gowns
Grown ups dressed to the nines
Sipping sweet and tangy piña colada
Dancing to Celebration and YMCA
Blasting on the stereo.
I am from balloons and cakes
Running to Bring Me party games
Lining up for buffet food
Singing Happy Birthday Song
Unwrapping gifts of toys, clothes and money.
I am from Christmas and New Year
Family get togethers
Prayer before meals
Menudo, Kare Kare, Barbecue pot luck meals
Kissing, hugging tight,
See You
Take Care
But
Silent unwelcome guest
Walks in unexpectedly.
Tears cloud my eyes
As I reach out
For the remote control
Playback to see people I miss
I can never feel their arms around me
Warmth of kiss on my cheeks.
I hear them
Talking,
Laughing,
Only on the family video.
