"Time Trapped"

 "Time Trapped"

by:

Virgilio F. De leon Jr.MD


I am trapped in this cycle of you

Unmoving and withering 

but with one gaze set ablaze

like the most common of kindling


Hard not to imagine 

how that smile could stop time

And the world seems to sigh

like nothing when you pass by


And all the while transfixed

In this, our unmeasurable distance

Close as a sigh , far as a thunderclap

holding on until the very last dance.
