TIME

At first sight...

By Tomas AlejandroPublished 4 years ago Updated 4 years ago 1 min read

TIME

A few moments of living,

Precious are the smiles,

Danger in this world's pressures,

Can you remain for a while?

--

Strangers as we approach

Our shadows embrace

Shared an askewed glance

All vanish, sans a trace.

--

A whistle in the dark.

Starry, foggy, dreary night,

Sauntering, seemingly strolling

Straying out of sight.

--

Yearning for a moment,

Grasping at that smile,

Straws that elude me.

Can you stay for a while?

--

I pause mid step

Hoping you’d stop as well

Turning with anticipation

I feel our heartswell.

--

You're my unchained melody,

A sight for lust drawn eyes,

A moment seemingly forever,

Awaiting your breathless sighs.
