"It that Beckons"

"It that Beckons"

by:

Virgilio F. De leon Jr.MD

 I

There is a line here

Invisible between us where we stand

Despite being so near

I can't even hold your hand

II

You whisper softly

Cross it , Here I am

But when I do it

You are nowhere to be found

III

So I stand here on my side

Looking at your loveliness

Hearing your soft voice

Just witnessing your mirage
