For Heaven's Sake

It was a moment like any other until it wasn’t

Time had passed before and likely would again

Yet it didn’t pass at all when I caught the eyes of him

.

Dark green and speckled brown

An arch of the brow, a reverse of a frown

A fluttering feeling in which I drowned

.

He smiled then at me, it’s true

The moment was longer now

But still, I knew

.

My breath came quick and entered my chest

Filling it up since I had forgotten the rest

.

If this is love, for heaven’s sake,

Let me live-

For my heart is his to take

.

He stepped my way with an easy sway

I let him come, I’ll let him stay

.

If this is love, for heaven’s sake,

Let him kiss me-

Let the whole earth shatter and quake

.

He approached, I put my hand to his face

He chuckled, pulling me into a warm embrace

.

If this is love, for heaven’s sake,

Let him hold me-

And from this dream, we shall not wake

.

And as most love stories go

It ended with a kiss

The ground beneath us trembled

The God’s rejoiced our bliss
