One poem by Jennifer Habana-Abastillas


Timeline

          Archieved you
                                  again
          Unable to find
                                  your familiar face
          Your vacant , scarred eyes
                                 elusive
           Yet sailed in my island of dreams
           Where our river flows
                                  clear
           Grasping our unspoken meaning.

           In this transverse universe
           Where my moonlight meets
                                  meets your sunlight
           I wil linger
           To share the youthful grief of
                                  my winter nights
           And summon the promises of
                                  my forever whys
           With the sonnets and haikus you left
           In this shadow of
                                  timeline.
