"Cupid 2021"

by:

Virgilio F. De leon Jr.MD

I

I am lost in that beat

Like a heart that never fades

I am carried by their voices

It heals me in waves

II

I am carried by their motion

Towards the shore I almost reach

I am lost in that rhythm

They sway again and again

III

I emerge from this rapture

Their smiles carry me to the moon.

I vow to have one more day.

And now to move on.
