Lunacy

The sun-lit moon
Reminded me of you
Its pale glow illuminating
The profile of your face
And the lines of my body
The very same lines
That belongs to
Someone else

We both saw the moon's
Borrowed light and
Instantly fell in love
With its blinding illusion
I wonder where
Are you
Seeing it now?
With whom?

Wiped Out



After 5 months, I saw you. But you didn't see me.

I saw you today
Wiping the windows
Looking so strange
I saw you today 
Huge distance between us
When I'm only 
A few meters away.

Feeling the Presence

When was the last time I saw you?
Last month?
Last week?
Yesterday?
Early this morning?
All true.

I saw you physically a month ago.
Lopsided Smiling.
With stars twinkling in your eyes.
Full of mischief in your body.

I thought about you last week.
When you were eating dinner without me.
Drowning in the the solitary silence.
I was there when you almost choked.

I pass by you yesterday.
On my way to work.
You were there also beside me in the bus.
Silent but present.

I caught a glimpse of you when I woke up.
I can almost bet you woke me up.
The distinct smell of your cologne lingered,
Rendering me immobile,distraught.

I closed my eyes,
And there you were.
Killing me with a grin.
Killing me nonetheless.
