“holdin’ Onto Nothin’” Poem by Robert Allan Fernandez

Sun’s light slowly fading.
City lights awaken.
Night rises,
With bright darkness.
Enraptured in freezing breeze.
From your mouth,
As you speak.
Grasping the moment.
For at long last,
I’m with you.
A love that I seek.
Though impossible to reach.
Enjoying your words,
Marks your presence.
Proving this scene’s entity.
Great dream I’m living.
At sudden instance,
Our hands felt each other’s.
Sending chilling sensations.
Time seems stopped.
Everything at pause.
A feeling deeply cherished.
Memoir so nourished.
Though aware of the truth.
Knowledge that implies,
I’m just….
Holding onto a simple nothing.
