Spend A Few More Moments. Poem by RAJ VIKRAM

Spend a few more seconds
here in this silent corner for who
knows how many
seconds time has kept for us.

Speak a few more words
for who knows when
words will dry up
You never know the
machinations of time.

True moments do come
worthwhile words do emerge
but in between many
draining summers would.
have left us gasping.

Your presence is like a
lullaby, at least let me
be in a trance for a few
pregnant moments.

Spend a few more seconds here
for who knows how many
summers would have to elapse and
Before a worthwhile moment appear.

How many Moments
need to disappear into
the wedge of nothingness
before I am in the presence of
this lullaby again.
