Just Five Minutes of Loving You

The world dims down, a silent, blurry scene,

Just you and I, a whispered, sweet routine.

Five minutes stolen, from a day so long,

To hold you close, where everything feels strong.

The clock ticks on, a rhythmic, distant drum,

But in this space, time seems to become

A gentle breeze, that carries us away,

Lost in your eyes, where love begins to play.

The worries fade, the burdens drift away,

Replaced by warmth, at the end of a long day.

Your hand in mine, a perfect, calming fit,

Like puzzle pieces, perfectly they knit.

I breathe you in, the scent of sun and rain,

A symphony of senses, easing every strain.

The world outside, a chaotic, bustling throng,

But here, with you, I simply just belong.

No grand gestures, no whispered words of love,

Just quiet comfort, sent from up above.

A shared silence, a language all its own,

Speaking volumes, where words have never flown.

Perhaps a strand of hair I gently tuck,

Or trace the outline of a smile with a touch.

Small acts of love, that speak a truth so deep,

A love that's steady, where emotions sleep.

Five minutes isn't long, a fleeting, precious time,

But in that space, a love story starts to climb.

A silent promise, a yearning in your gaze,

A lifetime's love, condensed in just a daze.

The burdens shared, the laughter and the tears,

A tapestry woven, through the passing years.

Five minutes stolen, a sanctuary we find,

A world confined, where only love can bind.

The world intrudes, a knock upon the door,

The spell is broken, we can't ignore.

But in those eyes, a spark refuses to die,

A promise lingers, a love that won't lie.

We say goodbye, a bittersweet embrace,

The echo lingers, on your loving face.

Five minutes vanish, yet the feeling stays,

A warmth within, that guides me through the maze.

The world resumes, with its relentless pace,

But in my heart, your love finds its own space.

A stolen moment, a flicker in the night,

A beacon of hope, a guiding, loving light.

Five minutes stolen, a treasure I hold dear,

A reminder sweet, of love that conquers fear.

For in that space, a connection we create,

A love so genuine, that seals our loving fate.

And when the day is done, and shadows start to creep,

I'll dream of you, and fall asleep,

With just five minutes, of loving you so true,

A promise whispered, "I'll always be with you."
