010709a We Both Hold Our Breath Poem by Manonton Dalan

wind tried to shrink my lips to raisin
with a brief smile, i put on my mitten
press abbreviated words send to you
waited for a while, you read it i know
my favorite ring tone came with flash
joy embraces my heart, my face blush

uncontrolled excitement dull my voice
i pretend can’t hear you, too much noise
i love to tell you i miss you but moan
then you laugh, you told me to hold on
you ask me if i am free, i said “at noon”
giggles reach me, heard ” see you soon”

my shadow on my feet, softies on my ears
my eyes focus on street, my heart in gears
taxi stops in front of me, door open slowly
your smile so pretty, you reach me gently
my lips found yours; i can’t resist moments
u said “i mss u2″ we both hold our breathes
