Indecision

 

Indecision

Melchor F. Cichon

1986

 

The moon keeps on shining bright

After we've called the Beta Way* our own.

But the music of the waterfalls

Seems to have been playing in its half-tune.

I stay an hour before my mirror

Awaiting for your visit.

But once I see you knock on my door,

I feel a negative throb in my soul.

Ecstasy has filled my dreams

Which I have no wish for its end.

But once I feel the rays of sun,

I begin to shrug and sigh.

Wait...Please give me a day or two

To give you my golden

"Yes!"

Or

"No!"

*Beta Way is a road between the College of Arts and Sciences and the College of Engineering, UP Diliman, Quezon City.
