I live in that solitude which is painful in youth, but delicious in the years of maturity.

I Have Fallen In Love (with the Same Woman Three Times)
This poem was written by Senator Benigno Aquino at Fort Bonifacio on October 11, 1973 as a love poem for Cory Aquino for their 19th wedding anniversary.
This was put into song by Jose Mari Chan on 1989 on his album Constant Change.
I am posting this song in lieu of Senator Ninoy Aquino’s 28th death anniversary.
Aside from being a romantic husband to his wife, let us also remember a modern Filipino hero, whose death became a catalyst to restore freedom and democracy in the Land of Juan. I shall also leave this as a challenge that we can also be hero in our own little way.
Bayani si Ninoy. At tayo rin ay puwedeng maging Bayani katulad niya.
Maraming maraming salamat po Senator Ninoy Aquino.
The meaning of our struggle is to be able to return the freedom. First we must return the freedom so that all segments of our community whether from the left or from the right will have the right to speak and then in that open debate in that clash of debate in the marketplace we will produce the clash between the thesis and the anti-thesis and then we will have the synthesis for the Filipino people.
