Deja Vu

Listen to poem:
I mark the time of our meeting by the still beat of my heart stroked by the momentary skip of the rhythm of it's chambers unnerved I am frozen solid as seconds pass into minutes nothing moves or is released from me not even my breath astonishing as it sound I still stand and I still live even in this moment of death I exist neither to take nor to give only to simply exist as if existence is all that is needed there within the face of all faces I see a dream come true true to life true to hope true to the wonders of a wish as sure as a coin is tossed into a well I am captivated entranced by a spell another minute has now passed before a shallow exhale escapes gaping lips an exhale forced by nature totally without consciousness for how can I think how can I move my eyes to blink blink- blink! No! nooo I dare not for fear you’ll go within a wink call your name I say softly now call your name as I have done time and again for we have repeated this a million times _ we have me and you In my dreams in my mind in my "Deja Vu"
