"Zutto"

 "Zutto"

by:

Virgilio F. De leon Jr.MD


I

It had been a long drawn out sigh

A long moment of goodbye

Since that day I laid my eyes on you

I knew ,  I had began to cry


II

Yet in between these breathes

Existing though fleeting

You have told me in a whisper

I am the answer to all your hungers.


III

Extending to eternity your voice

Savored in drops and draws

The tenderness of a passing touch

Echoing so forlorn in these halls.


IV

So when the final note 

Flows from the cut strings

The sigh lets go

And I begin to breathe...
