In the midst of a crowd
In the middle of chaos
In the ****** of deep thoughts
Came the best five seconds of my life

It took my a jiffy
To recognize that bag
To remember that hairstyle
To realize that presence

And I was right
It is really you
After days of longing
You came and ended my suffering

To say that it was short
To mention my obliviousness
To describe that moment
Five seconds is already enough

Everything was in slow motion
At that moment, it was only you
My attention zeroed to your figure
It was the longest five seconds of my existence

Today, I thank the heavens
For letting you appear in my most stressful hour
I thank them with all my heart
For coming at my least expected place

Now, I can finally face tomorrow
With a smile extending to my ears
A mind contented with thoughts of you
And a heart fulfilled with pure bliss

See you soon, my dear
*I'll patiently wait for our next five seconds of sanity.
LOL! this is a part two of longing....
