Do you remember when the wind seized to brush through branches?
Do you remember when time froze to the moment of the day?
Do you remember how our words got arrested within our mouth
that only our eye sockets were the only thing that moved?
Do you remember how that neighbor had us
before "hello"?
for all we could do was to stare
and stay put at that very spot
reverie of open windows under her arms
light-footed at her every touch
forgetting the pleasantries to elders.
as they stand as rude awakens
to this fairytale of a dream
her, as the plus one to my smiles
and the world as the enemy neighbors to my heart
as the stand barricading the typhoons of emotions
toppling my mind.
