I was certain of what I saw,
For it was a moment when the sun still graced the sky.
I couldn’t help but drop my jaw,
My gaze held fast; I could not look away.
The light stood still upon her face,
And there I stood, completely amazed.
Her lips were beckoning me near,
Like a jolt of electricity, her desire ran through me.
The space between us trembled, thin and tight,
A breath away from crossing into flame.
My pulse grew louder than the fading light,
Unsure if I should move or let it be.
Desire leaned close and spoke my name,
But I stepped back before it grew.
I let restraint outrun the flame,
And kept the distance we both knew.
